78.Dq handle .
79When inbound data arrives, the driver passes the data back with the
80appropriate receive handle.
81The NATM layer uses this to avoid the
82overhead of a protocol control block lookup.
83This allows us to take
84advantage of the fact that ATM has already demultiplexed the data for
85us.

87The NATM protocol support is subject to change as
88the ATM protocols develop.
89Users should not depend on details of the current implementation, but rather
