SmartCell 6A000 user data cells are classified according to the state of a cell loss priority (CLP) bit in the header of
each cell. A CLP 1 cell has a lower priority than a CLP 0 cell, and is discarded first. Source traffic descriptors can
specify CLP 0 cell traffic, CLP 1 cell traffic, or the aggregate CLP 0+1 traffic.
Use the
trafficdescriptor commands to view, create, and delete traffic descriptors.
For example, enter the
show trafficdescriptor command to view all currently defined traffic descriptors.

The Descriptor Type parameter in the example above corresponds to the traffic descriptor types defined in the
UNI3.0/UNI3.1specification. Descriptor types are specified numerically and are as follows:
1 = No Traffic Descriptor
2 = Traffic Descriptor with no CLP and no SCR
3 = Traffic Descriptor with CLP, no Tagging, and no SCR
4 = Traffic Descriptor with CLP, Tagging, and no SCR
5 = Traffic Descriptor with no CLP and SCR
6 = Traffic Descriptor with CLP, no Tagging, and SCR
7 = Traffic Descriptor with CLP, Tagging, and SCR
8 = Traffic Descriptor with CLP and best effort
PVCs can use user-defined traffic descriptors. For instance, if a video link over a PVC requires a constant data flow of
5000 kb/s and a peak cell rate of 8000 kb/s, create a traffic descriptor for CBR traffic that specifies 5000 as the
sustained cell rate and 8000 as the peak cell rate.
