Chapter 12 Managing ATM Connections

SVC Configuration

SVC Parameters

The SVC Parameters area allows you to configure the following fields:

NSAP Address (Network Service Access Point)—ATM address you need to provide if you are
configuring an SVC.

VC Parameters

The VC Parameters area allows you to configure the following fields:

AAL5 Encapsulation—Configure the ATM adaptation layer (AAL) 5 encapsulation type.

Sub Interface Number—The number of sub-interfaces under which you can configure the SVCs

Destination IP Address—Enter the IP address of the destination interface to which you want to pass
traffic.

Broadcast—Click on if you want to send duplicate broadcast packets for all protocols configured on a
SVC.

Idle Timeout—Specify an interval of inactivity after which any idle SVC on an interface is torn down.

Minimum Rate—In addition to configuring the interval of inactivity, you can optionally specify the
minimum rate in kilobits per second (Kbps). This is the minimum traffic rate required on an ATM SVC
to maintain the connection.

OAM Parameters

The OAM Parameters area allows you to configure the following fields:

Manage—If this value is set to yes, then the value in frequency will be considered.

Frequency—Specify the frequency (in seconds) that end-to-end OAM loopback cells should be
transmitted when a change in up or down state is being verified.

Retry Down Count—Specify the number of consecutive end-to-end OAM loopback cell responses that
are not received in order to tear down a PVC.

Retry Up Count—Specify the number of consecutive end-to-end OAM loopback cell responses that must
be received in order to change a PVC connection state to up.

Retry Frequency—If a PVC is up and a loopback cell response is not received after the specified
frequency attribute, then loopback cells are sent at the retry frequency to verify whether or not the PVC
is down.

Action

The Action area contains three buttons:

Connect—Allows you to connect the selected SVC, creating the connection on the device, making it real
and active.

Disconnect—Allows you to disconnect the selected SVC, disconnecting the connection on the device,
making it inactive.

Decommission—Allows you to decommission the selected SVC.
