Configuring PVCs
Configuring the Router
If the PVC terminates on a router, you must configure a PVC from the router to the ATM switch router.
Take these steps:
Step Command
1Router> enable Router#
2Router# configure terminal Router(config)#
3Router(config)# interface atm port[/slot ][.subinterface ]
4
5
6
7
8Router(config)#
9
Purpose
Enter privileged EXEC mode.
Enter global configuration mode.
Enter subinterface configuration mode on the main ATM interface.
Configure an IP address and subnet mask on the subinterface.
Create the PVC.
Note VCIs 0 to 31 on all VPIs are reserved.
Assign a map group to this interface. This command references a map list that you create in the next step.
Return to global configuration mode.
Create a map list. Match the name you enter here to the name in Step 6.
Add the destination router IP address. The VCD1 number must match the VCD number you assigned in Step 5. This configuration allows the VC to receive routing updates.
