Publishing the BXM Interface Information
When ILMI Neighbor Discover is enabled on a BXM port, the BPX and the attached ATM device
exchange their management IP addresses and other interface information with each other via the ILMI
protocol.
The exchanged information consists of:
• atmfMyIfName: physical interface name
• atmfMyIfIdentifier: Interface identifier
• atmfMyIpNmAddress: Management IP Address, either the LAN IP or network IP.
• atmfMySysIdentifier: System Identifier, a 6-byte string read from the BPX NOVRAM, or if not
available, the default value is "000001".
