The Configuration tab (see Figure 6-27) is divided into two panels: ATM Port Configuration, and ILMI Configuration.
Figure 6-27: Cisco 6400 NRP ATM Port Management Window (Configuration Tab)
The ATM Port Configuration panel (see Figure 6-27) allows you to configure the following information:
- Neighbor IP Address---Allows you to specify the IP address of the neighbor system connected to the far end of the interface, to which a Network Management Station can send SNMP messages, as IP datagrams sent to UDP port 161, in order to access network management information concerning the operation of that system.
|
Note The value of the object may be obtained in different ways, for example, by manual configuration, or through ILMI interaction with the neighbor system. |
Neighbor Interface Name---Allows you to specify the textual name of the interface on the neighbor system on the far end of the interface, and to which the interface connects. When the neighbor system is manageable through SNMP and supports the object ifName, the value of the object must be identical with that of ifName for the ifEntry of the lowest level physical interface for the port. When the interface does not have a textual name, the value of the object is a zero length string. Note that the value of the object may be obtained in different ways, for example, by manual configuration, or through ILMI interaction with the neighbor system.
- Maximum VCCs---Allows you to specify the maximum number of VCCs (PVCs and SVCs) supported at the ATM interface.
- Maximum VPCs---Allows you to specify the maximum number of VPCs (PVCs and SVCs) supported at the ATM interface. At the ATM UNI, the maximum number of VPCs (PVCs and SVCs) ranges from 0 to 256 only.
- Max Active VPI Bits---Allows you to specify the maximum number of active VPI bits configured for use at the ATM interface. At the ATM UNI, the maximum number of active VPI bits configured for use ranges from 0 to 8 only.
- Max Active VCI Bits---Allows you to specify the maximum number of active VCI bits configured for use at the ATM interface.
- UNI Signalling Version---Allows you to specify the version of UNI signalling that is currently being used on the interface. You can set the UNI Signalling Version to:
- ATMF UNI 3.0, ATM FUNI 3.1 or ATMF UNI 4.0---Used when the interface is an UNI or IISP interface.
- Not Applicable---Used when the interface is a PNNI interface or when signalling is disabled. It may reflect a manually configured value for the signalling version, or may be determined by other means such as auto-configuration.
|
Note Setting the variable to a value of "notApplicable" is not allowed. To modify the ciscoAtmIfUniSignallingVersion, ifAdminStatus has to be down and atmIfIlmiAutoConfiguration disabled. |
- UNI Type---Allows you to specify the type of User to Network Interface (UNI). You can set the UNI Type to public or private.
|
Note When ciscoAtmIfType is not UNI then UNI type value should be ignored. |

- Automatic---In automatic mode, well-known VCs are created with default VPI/VCI values upon startup or upon entry to the automatic mode. In Automatic mode, well-known VCs are not allowed to be deleted or modified by user commands. Automatic mode is the default mode at startup for equipment which supports automatic well-known VC creation.
- Manual---In manual mode, well-known VCs won't be automatically created. Instead you can delete and create PVCs with the reserved encapsulation types aalQsAal, aal5Ilmi, and aal5Pnni as applicable. PVCs are allowed to have VCI values in the range 5 to 16383, instead of 32 to 16383.
- Manual Delete Upon Entry---The Manual Delete Upon Entry action causes any existing VCs with reserved encapsulation types (aalQsAal, aal5Ilmi or aal5Pnni) to be deleted for the interface as it enters the manual state.

- Signalling Admin Status---Allows you to Enable or Disable signalling or sscop on the interface. You can set the Signalling Admin Status option to:
- Enabled---Signalling or sscop on the interface is enabled.
- Disabled---Signalling or sscop on the interface is disabled.
|
Note To modify the ciscoAtmIfSignallingAdminStatus, ifAdminStatus has to be down. |
- SVC UPC Intent---Allows you to specify the policing (Usage Parameter Control or UPC) action to take for SVCs established through the interface. You can set the SVC UPC Intent option to Passing, Tagging or Dropping.
|
Note Values other than passing are allowed only when policing is supported on the interface. The SVC UPC Intent also serves to determine which UPC to use on the terminating (destination) half-leg of Soft PVCs. For the CPU interface or logical ports on the LS1010, only the 'passing' value is supported. |
- Interface Type---Allows you to specify the type of ATM interface. You can set the Interface Type to Other, UNI (User to Network), PNNI, IISP or NNI PVC Only.
|
Note To modify the ciscoAtmIftype, ifAdminStatus has to be down and atmIfIlmiAutoConfiguration disabled. |
The ILMI Configuration panel (see Figure 6-27) allows you to configure the following information:
- ILIM VCI Value---Allows you to specify the VCI value of the VCC supporting the ILMI at the ATM interface. When the values of atmInterfaceIlmiVpi and atmInterfaceIlmiVci are both equal to zero then the ILMI is not supported at the ATM interface.
- ILMI VPI Value---Allows you to specify the VPI value of the VCC supporting the ILMI at the ATM interface. When the values of atmInterfaceIlmiVpi and atmInterfaceIlmiVci are both equal to zero then the ILMI is not supported at the ATM interface.

The Configuration tab (see Figure 6-34) is divided into two panels: ATM Port Configuration, and ILMI Configuration.
Figure 6-34: Cisco 6400 Line Card ATM Port Management Window (Configuration Tab)
The ATM Port Configuration panel (see Figure 6-34) allows you to configure the following information:
- Neighbor IP Address---Allows you to specify the IP address of the neighbor system connected to the far end of the interface, to which a Network Management Station can send SNMP messages, as IP datagrams sent to UDP port 161, in order to access network management information concerning the operation of that system.
|
Note The value of the object may be obtained in different ways, for example, by manual configuration, or through ILMI interaction with the neighbor system. |
- Neighbor Interface Name---Allows you to specify the textual name of the interface on the neighbor system on the far end of the interface to which the interface connects. When the neighbor system is manageable through SNMP and supports the object ifName, the value of the object must be identical with that of ifName for the ifEntry of the lowest level physical interface for the port. When the interface does not have a textual name, the value of the object is a zero length string. Note that the value of the object may be obtained in different ways, for example, by manual configuration, or through ILMI interaction with the neighbor system.
- Maximum VCCs---Allows you to specify the maximum number of VCCs (PVCs and SVCs) supported at the ATM interface.
- Maximum VPCs---Allows you to specify the maximum number of VPCs (PVCs and SVCs) supported at the ATM interface. At the ATM UNI, the maximum number of VPCs (PVCs and SVCs) ranges from 0 to 256 only.
- Max Active VPI Bits---Allows you to specify the maximum number of active VPI bits configured for use at the ATM interface. At the ATM UNI, the maximum number of active VPI bits configured for use ranges from 0 to 8 only.
- Max Active VCI Bits---Allows you to specify the maximum number of active VCI bits configured for use at the ATM interface.
- UNI Signalling Version---Allows you to specify the version of UNI signalling that is currently being used on the interface. You can set the UNI Signalling Version to:

- Automatic---In automatic mode, well-known VCs is created with default VPI/VCI values upon startup or upon entry to the automatic mode. While in this mode, well-known VCs will not be allowed to be deleted or modified by user commands. This is the default mode at startup for equipment which supports automatic well-known VC creation.
- Manual---In manual mode, well-known VCs are not created automatically. Instead you can delete and create PVCs with the reserved encapsulation types aalQsAal, aal5Ilmi, and aal5Pnni as applicable. PVCs are allowed to have VCI values in the range 5 to 16383, instead of 32 to 16383.

- Signalling Admin Status---Allows you to Enable or Disable signalling or sscop on this interface. You can set Signalling Admin Status to:
- Enabled---Signalling or sscop on this interface is enabled.
- Disabled---Signalling or sscop on this interface is disabled.
|
Note To modify the ciscoAtmIfSignallingAdminStatus, ifAdminStatus has to be down. |
- SVC UPC Intent---Allows you to specify the policing (Usage Parameter Control or UPC) action to take for SVCs established through this interface. Yo can set this option to Passing, Tagging or Dropping.
|
Note Values other than passing are allowed only when policing is supported on the interface. This also serves to determine which UPC to use on the terminating (destination) half-leg of Soft PVCs. For the CPU interface or logical ports on the LS1010, only the 'passing' value is supported. |
- Interface Type---Allows you to specify the type of ATM interface. You can set the Interface Type to a UNI (User to Network), PNNI, IISP or NNI PVC only.
|
Note To modify the ciscoAtmIftype, ifAdminStatus has to be down and atmIfIlmiAutoConfiguration disabled. |
The ILMI Configuration panel (see Figure 6-34) allows you to configure the following information:
- ILIM VCI Value---Allows you to specify the VCI value of the VCC supporting the ILMI at this ATM interface. When the values of atmInterfaceIlmiVpi and atmInterfaceIlmiVci are both equal to zero then the ILMI is not supported at this ATM interface.
- ILMI VPI Value---Allows you to specify the VPI value of the VCC supporting the ILMI at this ATM interface. When the values of atmInterfaceIlmiVpi and atmInterfaceIlmiVci are both equal to zero then the ILMI is not supported at this ATM interface.
