5.6.1  Interim local management interface  .  The interim local management interface (ILMI) shall comply with section 4 of the AF UNI specification.  ILMI defines a pre-specified ATM connection on the UNI to communicate, using SNMP messages.

The ILMI supports sharing of basic information about the connection.  The ATM layer contains the F4 and F5 OAM flows, which pertain to the virtual path connections (VPC) and virtual channel connections (VCC), respectively.  Both the F4 and F5 flows are bidirectional.

5.6.2  Transaction-oriented application  .  For transaction- oriented applications, the simple network management protocol (SNMP), as defined in RFC 1157, shall be used.
