Configuring Interface Types

This chapter describes how to explicitly configure ATM network interface types, rather than depending on ILMI autoconfiguration (which senses the peer interface type and configures the LightStream 1010 ATM switch interface appropriately).

The network configuration modifications described in this chapter are used to explicitly specify your ATM network operation. Because the LightStream 1010 offers true plug-and-play operation, most users might not need to perform any of these procedures. In some cases however, the autoconfiguration of interfaces may not be desired.

The LightStream 1010 ATM Switch Command Reference publication provides the complete syntax for every switch configuration command and describes the no form of each command.

Description of Example Network

The example network shown in Figure 8-1 is used to describe some standard ATM interface configuration tasks you might want to perform after completing the tasks described in the chapter "Initially Configuring the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch."

Figure 8-1: Example Network Configuration

The network configuration shown in Figure 8-1 is an example of a corporate campus ATM backbone network connecting three buildings with an ATM connection across the wide area network (WAN) to a remote sales office.

The following examples describe a hypothetical task involved in configuration of the network shown in Figure 8-1:

Example Format

The configuration examples in this chapter use the following format:

Description of the network connection to be modified.
Rationale for modification.
Task list describing the task and the commands used. See the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch Software Configuration Guide for additional task tables used to modify and monitor the switch.
Description of syntax used with the command. See the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch Software Command Reference publication for a complete description of all commands used to modify and monitor the switch.
Example of command(s) used to modify initial configuration.
Description and example of the commands used to confirm modification.

Disable Autoconfiguration

Autoconfiguration is the feature that determines the type of interface every time an interface comes up initially.

Rationale:

The autoconfiguration feature must be disabled on some interfaces prior to configuring some interfaces, such as user-to-network interface (UNI) connections.

To disable autoconfiguration on an interface use the following EXEC commands. Use the no form of the auto-configuration command to disable autoconfiguration:

Task Command

At the privileged EXEC prompt, enter configuration mode from the terminal.

configure¹
[terminal]

Select the interface to be configured.

interface atm card/subcard/port [.vpt #]

Shut down the interface.

shutdown

Disable autoconfiguration on the interface.

no atm auto-configuration

Re-enable the interface.

no shutdown

¹This command is documented in the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch Command Reference publication.

Task	Command
At the privileged EXEC prompt, enter configuration mode from the terminal.	configure¹ [terminal]
Select the interface to be configured.	interface atm card/subcard/port [.vpt #]
Shut down the interface.	shutdown
Disable autoconfiguration on the interface.	no atm auto-configuration
Re-enable the interface.	no shutdown

Example

The following example shuts down ATM interface 1/0/0, disables autoconfiguration, then re-enables the interface:

Switch(config)#interface atm 1/0/0

Switch(config-if)#shutdown

Switch(config-if)#

Configure a Public Network Tunnel Interface

This section describes configuring the DS-3 public User-Network Interface (UNI) ATM connection as a VP tunnel from the headquarters building across the WAN to the remote sales office.

Note A VP tunnel is configured as a VP of a particular service category. Only VCs of that service category can transit the tunnel.

See Figure 8-5 for a detail of the example network being configured.

Figure 8-5: Public VP Tunnel Network Example

Rationale

Public DS-3 carriers can interconnect switches via permanent VPs across their networks. To support signaling across the public network between switch LS1010-1(HB-1) in the headquarters building and the remote sales office switch LS1010(SB-1) a VP tunnel must be configured.

atm pvp and VP Tunnel Command Description

To configure a VP tunnel connection, use the following EXEC commands. Use the no form of this command to disable the VP tunnel connection:

Task Command

At the privileged EXEC prompt, enter configuration mode from the terminal.

configure¹
[terminal]

Optionally, configure the connection-traffic-table-row index for any non-default index values.

atm connection-traffic-table-row [index row-index] cbr peak-cell-rate rate [tolerance cell-count]

Select the physical interface to be configured.

interface atm card/subcard/port

Configure an interface PVP leg.

Configure a PVC to a VP Tunnel

To configure an end-point of a PVC to a previously created PVP tunnel, use the following EXEC commands using the no form of this command to disable:

Task Command

At the privileged EXEC prompt, enter configuration mode from the terminal

configure¹
[terminal]

Select the physical interface to be configured

interface atm card/subcard/port

Configure the PVC with the VPI of the tunnel leg matching the tunnel VPT number.

atm pvc vpi vci [upc upc] [pd pd] [rx-cttr index] [tx-cttr index] interface atm card/subcard/port[.vpt #] vpi vci [upc upc]

¹This command is documented in the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch Command Reference publication.

Task	Command
At the privileged EXEC prompt, enter configuration mode from the terminal	configure¹ [terminal]
Select the physical interface to be configured	interface atm card/subcard/port
Configure the PVC with the VPI of the tunnel leg matching the tunnel VPT number.	atm pvc vpi vci [upc upc] [pd pd] [rx-cttr index] [tx-cttr index] interface atm card/subcard/port[.vpt #] vpi vci [upc upc]

The following restrictions must be apply to an end-point of a PVC to a PVP tunnel subinterface:

The VPI number of the tunnel leg of any PVC connection must match the VPT number of the tunnel.
The service class, for example, CBR, VBR, UBR, as specified by the connection-traffic-table-row (CTTR) of any PVC connections must match the service class for the row(s) selected for the tunnel PVP.
For service classes other than UBR and ABR, the peak cell rates of all PVCs must be within the peak cell rate of the tunnel PVP. This will require new CTTR rows to be defined for CBR or VBR PVCs, with peak cell rates which are less than the intended tunnel PVP.

Example

The following example configures the example tunnel ATM1/0/0.99 with a UBR PVC from interface ATM 0/0/1 to the tunnel at ATM interface 1/0/0.99:

LS1010-1(HB-1)#configure t

Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
LS1010-1(HB-1)(config)#interface atm 0/0/1

LS1010-1(HB-1)(config-if)#atm pvc 0 50 interface atm 1/0/0.99 99 40

LS1010-1(HB-1)(config-if)#end

LS1010-1(HB-1)#

Use show atm vc interface to Display Permanent Virtual Circuit

To confirm the ATM virtual circuit interface configuration use the following command:

Task Command
