Parameter

Description

VCI

VCI is the label given to an ATM VC to identify it and determine its

destination. The VCI is a 16-bit number that is included in the header

of an ATM cell. The valid range for the VCI is 32 to 65535. Enter the

VCI assigned by the ISP.

ATM QoS

CBR (Constant Bit Rate) – This class is used for emulating circuit

switching. The cell rate is constant with time. Select CBR to specify

fixed (always on) bandwidth for voice or data traffic.

UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate) – Select UBR for applications that are

non-time sensitive, such as e-mail.

rtVBR (real time Variable Bit Rate) – This class is similar to nrtVBR

but is designed for applications that are sensitive to cell-delay

variation. Examples for real-time VBR are voice with speech activity

detection (SAD) and interactive compressed video.

nrtVBR (non-real time Variable Bit Rate) – This class allows users to

send traffic at a rate that varies with time depending on the

availability of user information. Statistical multiplexing is provided to

make optimum use of network resources. Multimedia e-mail is an

example of nrtVBR.

PCR

Divide the DSL line rate (bps) by 424 (the size of an ATM cell) to find

the PCR (Peak Cell Rate). This is the maximum rate at which the

sender can send cells.

SCR

SCR (Sustain Cell Rate) is the average rate, as measured over a

long interval, in the order of the connection lifetime.

Parameter

Description

MBS

MBS (Maximum Burst Size) refers to the maximum number of cells

that can be sent at the peak rate. Type the MBS, which is less than

65535.
