Cisco is agnostic with regards to technology and protocols. Cisco attempts 
to implement almost all viable protocols. That's their philosophy. So 
you'll see them implement solutions for customers who want ATM and 
solutions for customers who want SONET in the backbone.

With that said, if your question is about ATM on a campus network, we heard 
recently that they are removing LAN Emulation (LANE) from the CCIE test, so 
that may say something about their direction, or I could be reading too 
much into that decision.
