At workstation reboot: the ATM adapter initialization failed.

Explanation: The switch or concentrator port attached to the workstation is not enabled, or is not a UNI port.

1. From	the	console,	or from the SNMP Manager (ATMC), enable the corresponding
port	as	a UNI	port.

A station cannot register to an LES located behind a WAN (VP-tunnel).

Explanation:

Some

of

the

connections

through the

VP

tunnel work,

but

not

all,

especially

the

ADD_PARTY to put the stations on the LES Multicast Tree. The ONcore

hub/CELLplex 4000 error-log

is full of messages like 'Invalid Message Length'.

The

WAN

(public

network

providing

the

VP-tunnel)

uses

the VCI=5 for its own

purposes,

and

there

is

a conflict with the ONcore

hub/CELLplex

4000

which

also

uses VCI=5 (ATM-Forum Signalling

VCI).

Steps to

Take:

1. Ask

your

public

network

provider

if

they use

the

VCI=5.

If

necessary,

put an ATM

device

between

the

WAN

and

the

ONcore

hub/CELLplex

4000

to

do

the

translation

of

Signalling VCI

to

a value

other than

5.
