The Xerox Research Internet, which has been in operation within Xerox for over a decade now, is composed of some 200 geographically dispersed Ethernet local area networks 1,2. Not all networks in the Internet, however, require the same degree of interconnectivity. In some cases information is exchanged only occasionally, and then in the form of mail messages. In order to support this type of interaction, in a cost effective manner, it is highly desirable to implement internetwork communication links using switched media. This paper describes an experimental facility, developed for the management of transient internetwork communication links. The major novelty lies in the idea of allowing high level application programs to dynamically alter the Internet topology, without end-users being involved, or even aware of what is happening.
