Software Configuration of ATM ISE Line Cards for Cisco 12000 Series Routers
How to Configure Layer 3 Terminated VCs on the 4-Port ATM ISE Line Card

Cisco IOS Release 12.0(27)S
The syntax of the
atm pvp
command is:
atm pvp
vpi
vpi
is the ATM network VPI to use for this virtual circuit, in the range of 0 to 255 for UNI or 0 to 4095
for NNI;
vci
is the ATM network VCI to use for this virtual circuit, in the range of 0 to 655,535.
Troubleshooting Tips
To display information about the connected virtual circuits, use the following commands:
Configuring ATM Shaping on Terminated VCs
The 4-Port ATM ISE line cards support IP traffic shaping on terminated VCs. The following ATM
shaping options are available:
•
Constant bit rate (CBR)—Supports real-time applications that request a static amount of bandwidth
that is continuously available for the duration of the connection. (See
Step 5
.)
•
Real-time variable bit rate (VBR-rt)—Supports real-time applications that have bursty transmission
characteristics. (See
Step 6
.)
•
Non-real-time variable bit rate (VBR-nrt)—Supports non-real-time applications with bursty
transmission characteristics that tolerate high cell delay, but require low cell loss. (See
Step 7
.)
•
Unspecified bit rate (UBR)—Supports non-real-time applications that tolerate both high cell delay
and cell loss on the network. There are no network service-level guarantees for the UBR service
category, and therefore it is a best-effort service. (See
Step 8
.)
To configure ATM shaping, perform the shaping commands in PVC mode. You should use only one of
the shaping commands in
Step 5
through
Step 8
, depending on the type of shaping to be configured.
Restrictions
CDVT
When traffic shaping is configured on a VC, the cell delay variation (CDV) is set for the VC. This value
will change according to the shaping class defined. The cell delay variation tolerance (CDVT) values are
shown in
Table 4
.
