Configuring PVCCs
180 Avidia System Configuration and Management User Manual
<lport>
The PVCC line card slot and port number (format slot.port).
<cslot>
The channel card slot number for the PVCC.
<lslot>
The line card slot number for the PVCC.
<lvpi>
The line card VPI. See the table on page 24 for a summary of the supported VPI ranges for
each card.
<lvci>
The line card VCI. When using the range command, the first PVCC is assigned the VCI
you specify for this parameter, and each additional PVCC is assigned the next sequential
VCI. Before assigning a VCI, verify that it has not already been assigned to a PVCC with
the same VPI on the same port. See “Displaying Frame Channel Card PVCC Information”
on page 186 for instructions on viewing the already-configured PVCCs. See the table on
page 24 for a summary of the supported VPI ranges for each card.
[-mode (vcmux|llc)]
(Optional) The encapsulation mode. Type -mode vcmux or -mode llc. This setting
must match the encapsulation protocol used at the remote end. The default is llc.The
LLC (Logical Link Control) encapsulation is supported by most ATM devices but has more
overhead than vc-mux encapsulation. Use LLC only if the remote device that is connected
to the frame channel card port uses RFC1483 Ethernet bridging (it will not work with token
ring networks). Vcmux does not use an encapsulation header and works with any network
protocol.
Both encapsulation modes are from ietf RFC1483 Multiprotocol Encapsulation over ATM
Adaptation Layer 5.
[-admin (up|down)]
(Optional) Type -admin up to activate the PVCC. Type -admin down to deactivate
the PVCC. Omitting this parameter sets the admin status to the default up.
