Description
This menu defines the number of PVCs being configured. A PVC is a virtual circuit
that is permanently available. PVCs differ from SVCs in that an SVC must be
reestablished each time data is to be sent. Once the data has been sent, the SVC
disappears. PVCs are more efficient for connections between hosts that communicate
frequently.
