Worksheet in Appendix J or help gathering the IP addresses and required
network criteria.
• ATM VPI/VCI information for connectivity through ATM
switches.
• Host IP addresses (Ethernet maintenance interface and ATM
WAN interface)

Design Information for
an ATM Network
The following is a list of pertinent information for each network
component that you will need to know when designing your ATM
network.
UltraNet Edge 3000
• The Ethernet maintenance interface is statically configured for
auto negotiate.
• Each IP interface on the UltraNet Edge 3000 needs to be on a
separate subnet. This includes the WAN interfaces, the Ethernet
maintenance interface, and the serial interface for PPP.
• The default PPP IP host address for the UltraNet Edge 3000’s
serial interface is 192.168.1.1/28. This can be changed using
UltraNet ConfigManager.
• The default IP address structure will be defined for the ATM
WAN on subnet 192.168.144.0/24, if one is not defined using
UltraNet ConfigManager.
