6. Use the arrow keys to highlight the VCI field. Use the numeric keys to enter a VCI value from
32 through 4095. If a VCI value is entered which is out of range, reserved, or the field is left
blank, the appropriate message will be displayed when the field is exited. If the VCI field is left
blank, it defaults to zero, a reserved value.
7. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Profile Index field. Use the SPACE bar or the
BACKSPACE key, or enter a valid profile index number to change the field. One profile index
can be set for each virtual queue, VPI, VCI group. Any profile indexes which are accessible
from the TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT screen can be utilized. If the user tries to save a Virtual
Port which has a traffic descriptor configured that has a traffic rate of zero, an error message
will be shown stating the index has a rate of zero and that the Virtual Port was not created.
8. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command. Press ENTER. The message
“VPORT HAS BEEN CREATED” appears at the top of the screen indicating that Local
Management has added the Virtual Port. If there are problems creating the Virtual Port, the
error message may contain details.
If all the available Virtual Ports are configured (128 total), a message will be displayed across the
top of the screen stating there are no more unconfigured Virtual Ports, and the first configured
Virtual Port will be displayed.
NOTE: The VCI values 0 through 31 are reserved for ATM Forum use only.
NOTE: With the firmware revision shipped with this VHSIM2-A6DP, and previous
versions as noted in their Release Notes, all Virtual Ports and their associated PVCs are
stored in NVRAM, so will not be lost if the board is powered down or reset (either a hard
or soft reset).
