Configuring Two-Ended Soft PVC and Soft PVP Connections
Configuring Two-Ended Soft PVP Connections
To configure a two-ended soft PVP connection, follow these steps:
.
Note The default value for the upc option is pass.
Note For VBR-nrt and VBR-rt service categories you must configure the MBS (even if the value is default)
in the ATM connection traffic table row attached to the passive leg.
Note You can use the debug atm sig-soft (interface) and debug atm rm events commands to get information
on why a passive leg is not used due to traffic parameter mismatches.
Examples
The following example shows the configuration of the two-ended soft PVC (shown in Figure 7-8) with
a passive half leg starting with the configuration of Switch-C.
Switch-C(config)# interface atm 0/0/1
Switch-C(config-if)# atm soft-vc 1 60 passive
Switch-C(config-if)# end
Switch-C#
Command Purpose
Step 1
Switch-C(config)# atm filter-set name [index
[number]] [permit | deny] [template | time-of-day
{anytime | start-time {end-time}}]
(Optional) Used to configure the access-control
filter-set parameter on the passive
destination-side of the soft VP.
Step 2
Switch-C(config)# interface atm
card/subcard/port
Switch-C(config-if)#
Selects the interface, on the terminating switch,
being configured.
Step 3
Switch-C(config-if)# atm soft-vp dest-vpi
passive [upc upc] [rx-cttr index] [tx-cttr index]
[access-control {src-address atm-address |
filter-set name}]
Configures the passive leg on the terminating
switch interface.
Step 4
Switch-B(config-if)# atm soft-vp source-vpi
dest-address atm-address dest-vpi [enable |
disable] [upc upc] [rx-cttr index] [tx-cttr index]
[retry-interval [first retry-interval] [maximum
retry-interval]]
Creates a two-ended soft PVP on the source
switch that uses the passive half leg on the
terminating switch.
Step 5
Switch-C(config-if)# end Switches to EXEC command mode.
Step 6
Switch-C# show atm vp interface atm
card/subcard/port vpi
Displays the passive half-leg configuration
information of two-ended soft PVP.
