To start the configuration, perform the following steps:

1.Type the following commands to make sure the ATM adapter is functioning: adinfo — To check that the ATM adapter is installed and functioning properly

adstat — To check that the ATM adapter has a working physical connection to the ATM network

2.Check that the UNI is operational. The UNI provides an interface between ATM clients and the ATM switch.

To access an ELAN, the ATM adapter in your filer must be installed and functioning properly. Use the adinfo command to verify this.

Command syntax: The adinfo command has the following syntax:

Example: The sample output from this command is as follows:

!"#

"##

Interpreting the output: You should see lines for each of the ATM adapters in your filer that is functioning properly. The presence of the line indicates that the adapter has passed its self-test procedure and that the filer initialized the adapter. However, it does not verify that the adapter is sending or receiving packets. The adinfo command also displays the device name for each of the installed adapters, as well as the unit number, at the beginning of each line.

The unit number uniquely identifies the ATM adapter in the filer, and there is a one-to-one mapping between the device names and unit numbers. The device name consists of the prefix ‘a’ followed by the physical slot number. The unit number is sim- ply the slot number.

Some commands, such as uniconfig and el config, require the unit number as a parameter. Other commands, including adinfo and adstat, require the device name.
