Switch Administration PVC Connections
4.5.2 Point-to-Multipoint PVCs
Instructions in this section describe how to set up a point-to-multipoint connection through your SmartSwitch 9A100.
Example: Create a point-to-multipoint connection between a broadcasting workstation on port A1 and three other
workstations connected to ports B2, B3, and C1.
1. Use add trafficdescriptor to create two new traffic descriptors, one for the forward direction,
the other for the backward direction. For this example, for the forward traffic descriptor, we select
UBR and accept the defaults.
SmartSwitch # add trafficdescriptor
<this is the forward descriptor
TrafficType(UBR) :
<we use UBR for this example
TrafficDescriptorType(11) :
PCRCLP01(100) :
<we take the default values
PCRCLP0(0) :
SCRCLP01(0) :
SCRCLP0(0) :
MBSCLP01(0) :

However, on a point-to-multipoint connection there should be no traffic in the backward direction, so we define the
backward traffic descriptor with its Cell Loss Priorities set to zero (0).
md1 #add trafficdescriptor
<this is the backward descriptor
TrafficType(UBR) :
TrafficDescriptorType(11) :
PCRCLP01(100) :0
<we set everything to zero

2. Use show trafficdescriptor to obtain the new traffic descriptors’ index numbers.

In the example above, traffic descriptor six (6) will be used in the forward direction, and traffic descriptor seven (7)
will be used in the backward direction.
