MPOA is an ATM Forum specification for overlaying layer 3 network routing protocols like IP over an ATM switched network environment. It allows organizations to take advantage of the bandwidth and scalability of ATM while retaining legacy LANs, the ability to create VLANs (virtual LANs), and the ability to route between those VLANs.
