Initially Configuring the ATM Switch

Initially Configuring the ATM Switch

This chapter discusses how to initially configure the ATM switch, and includes the following sections:


Note For a complete description of the commands mentioned in this chapter, refer to the LightStream  1010 ATM Switch and Catalyst  8510 MSR Command Reference.

Note If your Telnet station or SNMP network management workstation is on a different network from the switch, you must add a static routing table entry to the routing table. See "Configuring a Static IP Route" in the chapter "Managing Configuration Files, System Images, and Functional Images."

Methods for Configuring the ATM Switch

The ATM switch defaults to a working configuration suitable for most networks. However, you might need to customize the configuration for your network. The ATM switch ships with the ATM address autoconfigured, which allows the switch to automatically configure attached end systems using the Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI) protocol. Autoconfiguration also allows the ATM switch to establish itself as a node in a single-level Private Network-Network Interface (PNNI) routing domain.

The ILMI and PNNI protocols, when used with an IP address autoconfiguration mechanism such as BOOTP, allow the ATM switch to be entirely self-configured. Through network management applications and the text-based command-line interface (CLI), you can configure and customize all aspects of the operation of the switch.

You must assign an IP address to allow up to eight simultaneous Telnet sessions to connect to the switch or to use the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) system for the switch. The Ethernet IP address is assigned either manually or by a BOOTP server. See the section "Configure IP Interface Parameters" in this chapter.

Two methods are available for configuring the ATM switch:


Figure 3-1: Methods of Configuring the ATM Switch


The ATM switch has two types of terminal lines: a console line and an auxiliary line. For line configuration, you must first set up the lines for the terminals or other asynchronnous devices attached to them. For a complete description of configuration tasks and commands used to set up your lines, modems, and terminal settings, refer to the Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide and Dial Solutions Configuration Guide.

Configuration Prerequisites

Consider the following information you might need before you configure your ATM switch:

Verify Software and Hardware Installed on the ATM Switch

The ATM switch should be operating correctly and transferring data.


Note If
an rommon> prompt appears, your switch requires a manual boot to recover. Refer to the Cisco Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide for instructions on manually booting from Flash memory.

Configuring the BOOTP Server

The BOOTP protocol automatically assigns an Ethernet IP address by adding the MAC and IP addresses of the Ethernet port to the BOOTP server configuration file. When the switch boots, it automatically retrieves the IP address from the BOOTP server.

The switch performs a BOOTP request only if the current IP address is set to 0.0.0.0. (This is the default for a new switch or a switch that has had its startup-config file cleared using the erase command.)

To allow your ATM switch to retrieve its IP address from a BOOTP server, you must first determine the MAC address of the switch and add that MAC address to the BOOTP configuration file on the BOOTP server. The following tasks provide an example of creating a BOOTP server configuration file:
Step Command Task
1

---

Install the BOOTP server code on the workstation, if it is not already installed.

2

---

Determine the MAC address from the label on the chassis.

3

---

Add an entry in the BOOTP configuration file (usually /usr/etc/bootptab) for each switch. Press Return after each entry to create a blank line between each entry. See the example BOOTP configuration file that follows.

4

reload

Restart the ATM switch to automatically request the IP address from the BOOTP server.

Configuring the ATM Address

The ATM switch is autoconfigured with an ATM address using a hierarchical addressing model similar to the OSI network service access point (NSAP) addresses. PNNI uses this hierarchy to construct ATM peer groups. ILMI uses the first 13 bytes of this address as the switch prefix that it registers with end systems.


Note 
If you chose to manually change any ATM address, it is important to maintain the uniqueness of the address across large networks. Refer to the section "ATM Addresses" in the chapter "Configuring ATM Routing and PNNI" for PNNI address considerations and for information on obtaining registered ATM addresses.

Autoconfigured ATM Addressing Scheme

During the initial startup, the ATM switch generates an ATM address using the defaults shown in Figure 3-2.


Figure 3-2: ATM Address Format



Note The
first 13 bytes of the address is a switch prefix used by ILMI in assigning addresses to end stations connected to User-Network Interface (UNI) ports.

Default Address Format Features and Implications

Using the default address format has the following features and implications:

Manually Setting the ATM Address

To configure a new ATM address that replaces the previous ATM address when running IISP software only, see the section "Configure the ATM Address" in the chapter "Configuring ILMI."

To configure a new ATM address that replaces the previous ATM address and generates a new PNNI node ID and peer group ID, see the section "Configure an ATM Address and PNNI Node Level" in the chapter "Configuring ATM Routing and PNNI."

Multiple addresses can be configured for a single switch, and this configuration can be used during ATM address migration. ILMI registers end systems with multiple prefixes during this period until an old address is removed. PNNI automatically summarizes all the switch prefixes in its reachable address advertisement.

For operation with ATM addresses other than the autoconfigured ATM address, use the atm address command to manually assign a 20-byte ATM address to the switch. The atm address command address_template variable can be a full 20-byte address or a 13-byte prefix followed by ellipses (...). Entering the ellipses will automatically add one of the switch's 6-byte MAC addresses in the ESI portion and 0 in the selector portion of the address.

Caution ATM addressing can lead to conflicts if not configured correctly. The correct address must always be present. For instance, if you are configuring a new ATM address, the old one must be completely removed from the configuration.

When the switch is powered on initially without any previous configuration data, the ATM interfaces are automatically configured on the physical ports. ILMI and the physical card type are used to automatically derive the following:

See the chapter "Configuring Port Adapter Interfaces" for the interface default configuration and modification procedures.

You can accept the default ATM interface configuration or overwrite the default interface configuration as described in the chapter "Configuring ATM Network Interfaces."

Modify the Default for Physical Layer Configuration of an ATM Interface

This section describes modifying an ATM interface from the default configuration listed in the chapter "Configuring Port Adapter Interfaces." You can accept the ATM interface configuration or overwrite the default interface configuration using the CLI commands, which are described in the chapter "Configuring Virtual Connections."

The following example describes modifying an OC-3 interface from the default settings to the following:

To change the configuration of the example interface, perform the following tasks, beginning in global configuration mode:
Step Command Task
1

interface atm card/subcard/port

Select the physical interface to be configured.

2

no scrambling cell-payload

Disable cell-payload scrambling.

3

no scrambling sts-stream

Disable STS-stream scrambling.

4

sonet stm-1

Configure SONET mode as SDH/STM-1.

Example

The following example shows how to disable cell-payload scrambling and STS-stream scrambling and changes the SONET mode of operation to Synchronous Digital Hierarchy/Synchronous Transfer Module 1 (SDH/STM-1) of OC-3 physical interface 0/0/0:

Switch(config)# interface atm 0/0/0
Switch(config-if)# no scrambling cell-payload
Switch(config-if)# no scrambling sts-stream
Switch(config-if)# sonet stm-1

To change any of the other physical interface default configurations, refer to the commands in the LightStream  1010 ATM Switch and Catalyst  8510 MSR Command Reference.

To display the physical interface configuration, use the following privileged EXEC commands:
Command Task

show controllers atm card/subcard/port

Show the physical layer configuration.

more system:running-config

Show the physical layer scrambling configuration.

Configure IP Interface Parameters

IP addresses can be configured on the processor interfaces. Each IP address is configured for one of the following types of connections:


Note These IP connections are used only for network management.

To configure the switch to communicate via the Ethernet interface, provide the IP address and subnet mask bits for the interface, as described in the following sections.

IP Address

Internet addresses are 32-bit values assigned to hosts that use the IP protocols. These addresses are in dotted decimal format (four decimal numbers separated by periods) such as 192.17.5.100. Each number is an 8-bit value between 0 and 255. The following is a summary of IP addressing concepts for those who are somewhat familiar with IP addressing.

The addresses are divided into three classes, which differ in the number of bits allocated to the network and host portions of the address:

Default: None.

Enter your Internet address in dotted decimal format for each interface you plan to configure.

Subnet Mask Bits

Subnetting is an extension of the Internet addressing scheme, which allows multiple physical networks to exist within a single Class A, B, or C network. The usual practice is to use a few of the far left bits in the host portion of the network address for a subnet field. The subnet mask determines whether subnetting is in effect on a network.

Internet addressing conventions allow a total of 24 host bits for Class A addresses, 16  host bits for Class B addresses, and 8 host bits for Class C addresses. When you are further subdividing your network (that is, subnetting your network), the number of host addressing bits is divided between subnetting bits and actual host address bits. You must specify a minimum of two host address bits, or the subnetwork is not populated by hosts.

Default: 0.


Note Because
all zeros in the host field specifies the entire network, subnetting with subnet address  0 is illegal and is strongly discouraged.

Table 3-1 provides a summary of subnetting parameters.

Define subnet mask bits as a decimal number between 0 and 22 for Class A addresses, between 0 and 14 for Class B addresses, or between 0 and 6 for Class C addresses. Do not specify 1 as the number of bits for the subnet field. That specification is reserved by Internet conventions.

To configure the IP address, perform the following tasks, beginning in global configuration mode:
Step Command Task
1

interface ethernet0

Select the interface to be configured.

2

ip address ip-address mask

Configure the IP and subnetwork address.


Note With
this release of the ATM switch software, addressing the interface on the processor (CPU) has changed. The ATM interface is now called atm0, and the Ethernet interface is now called ethernet0. The old formats (atm 2/0/0 and ethernet 2/0/0) are still supported.
Example

The following example shows how to configure interface ethernet0 with IP address 172.20.40.93 and subnetwork mask 255.255.255.0:

Switch(config)# interface ethernet0
Switch(config-if)# ip address 172.20.40.93 255.255.255.0

Display the IP Address

To display the IP address configuration, use the following privileged EXEC commands:
Command Task

show interface ethernet0

Display the Ethernet interface IP address.

more system:running-config

Show the physical layer scrambling configuration.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the show interface command to display the IP address of interface ethernet0:

Switch# show interface ethernet0
Ethernet0 is up, line protocol is up
  Hardware is SonicT, address is 0040.0b0a.1080 (bia 0040.0b0a.1080)
  Internet address is 172.20.40.93/24

Test the Ethernet Connection

After you have configured the IP address(es) for the Ethernet interface, test for connectivity between  the switch and a host. The host can reside anywhere in your network. To test for Ethernet connectivity, use the following command in EXEC mode:
Command Task

ping ip address

Test the configuration using the ping command. The ping command sends an echo request to the host specified in the command line.

For example, to test Ethernet connectivity from the switch to a workstation with an IP address of 172.20.40.201, enter the command ping ip 172.20.40.201. If the switch receives a response, the following message is displayed:

Switch# ping ip 172.20.40.201
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.20.40.201, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/202/1000 ms

Configuring Network Clocking

This section describes network clocking and network clocking configuration of the ATM switch. Network clocking configuration is described in the following sections:

Manually Configuring Network Clocking

The following subsections describe how to configure the sources and priority of network clocking.

Clocking Sources and Priorities

The transmit clock is configurable on a per-port basis. Transmit clocking can be configured for each port in one of the following ways:

A derived clock is received, along with data, from a specified interface. For example, in Figure 3-3 the clocking signal configured as priority one is extracted from the data received at interface 0/0/0 and is distributed as the transmit clock to the rest of the switch through the backplane. Interface 3/0/0 is configured to use network-derived transmit clocking, received across the backplane from interface 0/0/0.


Figure 3-3: Transmit Clock Distribution


Since the port providing the network clock source could fail, Cisco IOS software provides the ability to configure an additional interface as a clock source with priority 2. If neither priority 1 or 2 is configured, the default (system clock) is used as the derived clock. However, you can also configure the system clock to priority 1 or 2.

If the network clock source interface goes down, the software switches to the next highest-configured priority network clock source. For example, Figure 3-4 shows the following:


Note The network clock is, by default, configured as nonrevertive. The algorithm to switch to the highest priority best clock only runs if the network-clock-select command is configured as revertive.

Figure 3-4:
Transmit Clocking Priority Configuration Example



Note If no
functioning network clock source port exists at a given time, the default clock source is the system clock on the processor.

Configure Network Clock Sources and Priorities

To configure the network clocking priorities and sources, use the following command in global configuration mode:
Command Task

network-clock-select priority {interface-type card/subcard/port | system} [revertive]

Configure the network clock priority.


Note Specifying the keyword system with the network-clock-select command selects the processor reference clock (a stratum 4 clock source) .
Examples

The following example shows how to configure the network clock priorities shown in Figure 3-4:

Switch(config)# network-clock-select 1 atm 0/0/0
Switch(config)# network-clock-select 2 atm 0/0/3

The following example shows how to configure the network clock to revert to the highest priority clock source after a failure and takeover by the source with the next lowest priority.

Switch(config)# network-clock-select revertive

Configure the Transmit Clocking Source

To configure where each interface receives its transmit clocking, perform the following tasks, beginning in global configuration mode:
Step Command Task
1

interface atm card/subcard/port

Select the interface to be configured.

2

clock source {free-running | loop-timed | network-derived}

Configure the interface clock source.

Example

The following example configures ATM interface 3/0/0 to receive its transmit clocking from a network-derived source:

Switch(config)# interface atm 3/0/0
Switch(config-if)# clock source network-derived

Display the Network Clocking Configuration

To show the switch's network clocking configuration, use the following privileged EXEC commands:
Command Task

show network-clocks

Show the network clocking configuration.

more system:running-config

Show the interface clock source configuration.

show controllers [atm card/subcard/port]

Show the interface controller status.

Examples

The following example shows the configured network clock sources:

Switch# show network-clocks
clock configuration is NON-Revertive
Priority 1 clock source: ATM1/0/0
Priority 2 clock source: ATM1/1/0
Priority 3 clock source: No clock
Priority 4 clock source: No clock
Priority 5 clock source: System clock
Current clock source:System clock, priority:5

Note A source listed as "No clock" indicates that a clock source is not configured at the given priority.

The following example shows the clock source configuration stored in the running configuration:

Network Clock Services for CES Operations and CBR Traffic

Circuit emulation services-interworking functions (CES-IWF) and constant bit rate (CBR) traffic relate to a quality of service (QoS) classification defined by the ATM Forum for Class A (ATM adaptation layer 1 [AAL1]) traffic in ATM networks. In general, Class A traffic pertains to voice and video transmissions.

In the ATM switch environment, CBR refers to a particular class of traffic that is generated by edge (source) devices and propagated into ATM networks for transmission to other edge (destination) devices in the network. Each CBR edge device communicating in this manner must be driven by a clocking signal of identical frequency since this signal controls the rate of CBR data insertion into the network, as well as the rate of extraction of CBR data from the network.

If the clock frequency is not the same at both the ingress and egress nodes of the circuit, the data queues and buffers in the network either overflow or underflow, resulting in periodic line errors.

The CES modules have been designed specifically to handle CBR traffic in an ATM networking environment. To provide the required timing functions to support CES operations, you can specify any one of three clocking modes:

However, to support synchronous clocking or SRTS clocking in your ATM switch operating environment, your network must incorporate the following facilities:

Plan for Network Clocking for CBR Traffic

Planning, designing, and implementing an ATM network requires many considerations. Such considerations might include, but are not limited to, the specific hardware used in the network, the purposes served by the network, the protocols implemented within the network, and the physical topology of the network.

Among these important considerations is how a clocking signal should be distributed within the network. In all cases, distributing a clocking signal within the network ensures that each CBR device has access to a common reference clocking signal for synchronizing CBR data transport.

For this reason, planning for distributing a timing signal must be done on a per-chassis basis. Planning must also include a means for distributing up to three alternative clocking signals, in the event of failure of the primary clock signal. You can think of network clocking in general as a kind of protocol to be implemented in the network.

In summary, network administrators must plan for the following:

When these network clocking facilities are established and operational, they tend to remain static until the primary clock is lost for any reason. In this case, network clocking is dynamic in the sense that an alternate clocking signal must be placed into effect immediately, so the network can remain operational.

Network Clocking Signal Sources

In many cases, using a clocking signal from a telephone company is the simplest and best solution for a stable and reliable clocking signal, especially in those instances where you are already using a CES circuit to interconnect telephone equipment.

For example, to meet its own need for internal consistency, a telephone company typically distributes a timing signal to govern its own networking operations. Therefore, the telephone company has already addressed timing requirements similar to those that an ATM switch user must address in relation to their own CES operations. Consequently, a private branch exchange (PBX) can serve as a ready means for providing a timing signal to any user CBR device.

A network administrator can define up to two clocking signal sources per chassis, assigning a priority to each one. Under normal operating conditions, the priority 1 signal serves as the primary clocking signal. The priority 2 signal source serves as a backup in the event of failure of the primary (priority 1) clock.

As is the case for other modules, the clock sources for a CES module can be configured as revertive or nonrevertive. For example, assume that a clock of lower priority is currently in effect due to failure of a higher priority clock source. If network clocking is revertive, the system automatically reverts to the higher priority clock signal when the higher priority clock is again restored to service for at least one minute.

To make use of network timing services in an ATM switch chassis, you must define the port from which a network timing signal is to be taken, and specify the alternative clock source for the port in the same order of priority as specified for the network at large.

You can accomplish these clock configuration tasks by using the network-clock-select command, as described in the section "Configure Network Clock Sources and Priorities."

A PRS from a major telephone carrier is often the timing signal of choice, because such signals are known to be highly stable, reliable, and accurate.

Clock Synchronization Services

Any module in an ATM switch chassis capable of receiving and distributing a network timing signal can propagate that signal to any similarly capable module in the chassis.The following entities are capable of receiving and distributing a PRS:


Note A trunk port can propagate a clocking signal in either direction.

By issuing the network-clock-select command with appropriate parameters, you can define a particular port in an ATM switch chassis to serve as the source of a PRS for the entire chassis or for other devices in the networking environment. This command is described in the section "Configure Network Clock Sources and Priorities."

You can also use the network-clock-select command to designate a particular port in an ATM switch chassis to serve as a "master clock" source for distributing a single clocking signal throughout the chassis or to other network devices. Hence, this reference signal can be distributed wherever needed in the network to globally synchronize the flow of CBR data.

Clocking Modes for CES Operations

For CES operations and CBR traffic, as noted earlier, three locking modes can be used with any CES module. Table 3-2 summarizes, in order of preference, the characteristics of the three clocking modes available for handling CBR traffic in an ATM switch networking environment.


Table 3-2: Characteristics of CES Clocking Modes
Clocking Mode Advantages Limitations

Synchronous

Supports both unstructured (clear channel) and structured CBR traffic.

Exhibits superior wander and jitter characteristics.

Requires a PRS and network clock synchronization services.

Ties the CES interface to the network clock synchronization services clocking signal (PRS).

SRTS

Conveys externally generated user clocking signal through ATM network, providing independent clocking signal for each CES circuit.

Requires a PRS and network clock synchronization services.

Supports only unstructured (clear channel) CBR traffic.

Exhibits moderate wander characteristics.

Adaptive

Does not require a PRS or network clock synchronization services.

Supports only unstructured (clear channel) CBR traffic.

Exhibits poorest wander characteristics.

Although the wander and jitter characteristics of these clocking modes differ, all clocking modes preserve the integrity of the your CBR data, ensuring error-free data transport from source to destination. However, there are important differences, summarized as follows:

Synchronous Clocking

When equipped with a CES module and appropriate software, any ATM switch can:

Figure 3-5 shows that an ATM switch can use a PRS that originates from one of two possible sources. However, this does not mean that only two such clocking signals can be made available for use in the ATM network. In fact, numerous clocking signals may be present in the ATM switch operating environment.

The important concepts shown in Figure 3-5 include the following:


Figure 3-5: Synchronous Clocking Sources in ATM Network


Note that each PRS in Figure 3-5 is externally generated. The timing signal originates from a source outside the ATM network---either the PBX or an OC-3 or OC-12 trunk line that can propagate a PRS between adjacent ATM networks.

If the priority 1 PRS fails, the network clock synchronization service automatically recovers network timing by using the priority 2 PRS available from another source.

Assume that the T1/E1 trunk at the top of Figure 3-5 is currently supplying a priority 1 PRS to the network. If the PRS fails, the OC-3/OC-12 trunk line (linking the adjacent ATM networks) can provide a secondary (priority 2) PRS for network synchronization purposes. If network clocking is configured as revertive, the network clock synchronization service automatically reverts to the priority 1 PRS when its service is restored.

Figure 3-6 shows how a PRS for synchronous clocking can be provided to an edge node of an ATM network and propagated through the network to synchronize the flow of CBR data between the communicating ATM end nodes.

In this network scenario, a PRS is available to the network by the PBX at the edge of the network. The PRS is present at the port of a CES module in edge node A (the ingress node). From there, the PRS is propagated into the first ATM network through an ATM port and conveyed across an OC-3 trunk to an adjacent ATM network. This same clocking signal is then used to synchronize the handling of CBR data in edge node B (the egress node).


Figure 3-6: Synchronous Clocking in an ATM Switch Network


See the preceding sections for clocking configuration examples:

SRTS Clocking

SRTS clocking can be used if the your edge equipment is driven by a different clocking signal than that being used in the ATM network. Figure 3-7 shows such an operating scenario, in which a timing signal is provided to edge nodes independently from the ATM network.


Figure 3-7: SRTS Clocking in an ATM Switch Network


Using Figure 3-7, assume that the user of edge node 1 wants to send CBR data to a user at edge
node 3. In this scenario, SRTS clocking works as follows:

    1. Clock A is driving the devices within the ATM network.

    2. At edge node 1, the user introduces CBR traffic into the ATM network according to clock B.

    3. As edge node 1 segments the CBR bit stream into ATM cells, it measures the difference between user clock B, which drives it and network clock A.

    4. As edge node 1 generates the ATM cell stream, it incorporates this delta value into every eighth cell.

    5. The cells are then propagated through the network in the usual manner.

    6. As destination edge node 3 receives the cells, this node not only reassembles the ATM cells into the original CBR bit stream, but also reconciles, or reconstructs, the user clock B timing signal from the delta value carried within every eighth ATM cell.

Thus, during SRTS clocking, CBR traffic is synchronized between the ingress (segmentation) side of the CES circuit and the egress (reassembly) side of the circuit according to user clock signal B, while the ATM network continues to function according to clock A.

Adaptive Clocking

The name adaptive clocking mode reflects the fact that the rate at which CBR data is propagated through an ATM network is driven essentially by the rate at which CBR data is introduced into the network by the user's edge equipment. The actual rate of CBR data flow through the network may vary from time to time during adaptive clocking, depending on how rapidly (or how slowly) CBR data is being introduced into the network. Nevertheless, CBR data transport through the network occurs in a "pseudo synchronous" manner that ensures the integrity of the data.

Adaptive clocking requires neither the network clock synchronization service nor a global PRS for effective handling of CBR traffic. Rather than using a clocking signal to convey CBR traffic through an ATM network, adaptive clocking in a CES module infers appropriate timing for data transport by calculating an "average" data rate upon arrival and conveying that data to the output port of the module at an equivalent rate.

For example, if CBR data is arriving at a CES module at a rate of so many bits per second, then that rate is used, in effect, to govern the flow of CBR data through the network. What happens behind the scenes, however, is that the CES module automatically calculates the average data rate using microcode (firmware) built into the board. This calculation occurs dynamically as user data traverses the network.

When the CES module senses that its segmentation and reassembly (SAR) buffer is filling up, it increases the rate of the transmit (TX) clock for its output port, thereby draining the buffer at a rate that is consistent with the rate of data arrival.

Similarly, the CES module slows down the transmit clock of its output port if it senses that the buffer is being drained faster than CBR data is being received. Adaptive clocking attempts to minimize wide excursions in SAR buffer loading, while at the same time providing an effective means of propagating CBR traffic through the network.

Relative to the other clocking modes, implementing adaptive clocking is simple and straightforward. It does not require network clock synchronization services, a PRS, or the advance planning typically associated with developing a logical network timing map. However, adaptive clocking does not support structured CES services, and it exhibits relatively high wander characteristics.

Other Factors Relevant to CES Operations

The following factors enter into proper functioning of CES circuits:

Although synchronous clocking is the recommended (default) clocking mode for CES operations, this does not preclude other clocking modes from consideration.
Each end-to-end CES circuit exhibits delay characteristics, based on the following factors:
Each network device contributes some increment of delay, reflecting the unique electrical characteristics of that device.
The network designer/administrator calculates a CDV value for each hop in the data path in order to establish a maximum allowable CDV value for the network at large.
A maximum allowable CDV value for the network is calculated by network designers and administrators in order to establish the cell delay tolerance limits for the network. To some degree, the network's maximum allowable CDV value is a measure of the network's expected performance.
By establishing this CDV threshold for the network, appropriate buffer sizing can be derived for the network devices involved in any given CES circuit, ensuring that the network operates as expected.
In a CES module, for example, the maximum allowable CDV value for the network is used to determine an appropriate size (depth) for the SAR buffer built into the board. This sizing of the SAR buffer is done to prevent buffer overflow or underflow conditions. An overflow condition can cause a loss of frames, while an underflow condition can cause frames to be repeated.
The actual CDV value for a circuit varies according to the particular data path used for the circuit. Consequently, the depth of the SAR buffer increases or decreases in proportion to the CDV value for the CES circuit being set up.
You can issue the CLI show ces circuit interface command in an unstructured (clear channel) circuit to measure the current CDV value. See the section "Verify the Hard PVC with Adaptive Clocking" in the chapter "Configuring Port Adapter Interfaces."
For an unstructured hard permanent virtual circuit (PVC), the CDV value for the circuit (including all hops) must not exceed a maximum allowable CDV value. The procedure for setting up a hard PVC is described in the chapter "Configuring Port Adapter Interfaces" in the section "Configure T1/E1 Unstructured CES Services."
For an unstructured soft PVC, the network automatically determines the best data path through the network and handles the routing of CBR traffic. The network accomplishes this task dynamically through the ATM connection admission control (CAC) mechanism. The CAC mechanism determines the best path through the network by executing a routing algorithm that consults local routing tables in network devices.
If the requested data path is equal to or less than the maximum allowable CDV value established by the network administrator, the connection request is granted. If the requested CES circuit exceeds the maximum allowable CDV value, the connection request is denied. These admission control processes occur "on the fly" as network connection requests are initiated.
For example, when a user requests a connection from source node A at one edge of the network to destination node B at the opposite edge of the network, the CAC mechanism accounts for the CDV value for each hop in the requested connection to determine a suitable path through the network that does not exceed the network's maximum allowable CDV value.
The procedure for setting up a soft PVC is described in the section "Configure a Soft PVC with Synchronous Clocking" in the chapter "Configuring Port Adapter Interfaces."

Configuring the Network Routing

The default software image for the ATM switch contains the PNNI routing protocol. The PNNI protocol provides the route dissemination mechanism for complete plug-and-play capability. The following section, "Configure ATM Static Routes for IISP or PNNI," describes modifications that can be made to the default PNNI or Interim-Interswitch Signalling Protocol (IISP) routing configurations.

For routing protocol configuration information, see the chapters "Configuring ILMI" and "Configuring ATM Routing and PNNI."

Configure ATM Static Routes for IISP or PNNI

Static route configuration allows ATM call setup requests to be forwarded on a specific interface if the addresses match a configured address prefix. To configure a static route, use the following command in global configuration mode:
Command Task

atm route addr-prefx atm card/subcard/port

Specify a static route to a reachable address prefix.


Note An interface must be UNI or IISP to be configured with static route. Static routes configured as PNNI interfaces default as down.

The following example shows how to use the atm route command to configure the 13-byte peer group prefix = 47.0091.8100.567.0000.0ca7.ce01 at interface 3/0/0:

Switch(config)# atm route 47.0091.8100.567.0000.0ca7.ce01 atm 3/0/0
Switch(config)# 

Configuring the System Information

Although not required, the system clock and hostname should be set as part of the initial system configuration. To set these system parameters, perform the following tasks, beginning in privileged EXEC mode:
Step Command Task
1

clock set hh:mm:ss day month year

Set the system clock.

2

configure

Enter global configuration mode from the terminal.

3

hostname name

Set the system name.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure the time, date, and month using the clock set command, enter global configuration mode, and assign a hostname.

Switch# clock set 15:01:00 17 October 1997
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# hostname Publications
Publications#

The following example shows how to confirm the clock setting using the show clock command:

Publications# show clock
.15:03:12.015 UTC Fri Oct 17 1997

Configuring SNMP and RMON

SNMP is an application-layer protocol that allows an SNMP manager, such a network management system (NMS), and an SNMP agent on the managed device to communicate. You can configure SNMPv1, SNMPv2, or both, on the ATM switch. Remote Monitoring (RMON) allows you to see the activity on network nodes. By using RMON in conjunction with the SNMP agent on the ATM switch, you can monitor traffic through network devices, segment traffic that is not destined for the ATM switch, and create alarms and events for proactive traffic management.

For detailed instructions on SNMP and general RMON configuration, see the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide. For instructions on configuring ATM RMON, see the chapter "Configuring ATM Accounting and ATM RMON."

Storing the Configuration

When autoconfiguration and any manual configurations are complete, you should copy the configuration into nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM). If you should power off your ATM switch prior to saving the configuration in NVRAM, all manual configuration changes are lost.

To save the running configuration to NVRAM, use the following command in privileged EXEC mode:
Command Task

copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config

Copy the running configuration in system memory to the startup configuration stored in NVRAM.

Testing the Configuration

The following sections describe tasks you can perform to confirm the hardware, software, and interface configuration:


Note The following examples differ depending on the feature card installed on the processor.
