Additional Switch | The Integrated Fast Setup configures a minimum set of network |
Configuration | parameters - enough to get you started. |
| If you need to make changes or to perform additional configuration |
| tasks, use individual items of the LMA menus. These are all described in |
| the CoreBuilder 7000 Family ATM Switches User Guide. |
| Some additional configuration tasks might be: |
| Configuring SVCs |
| CoreBuilder 7000 family ATM switches use standard UNI 3.0 or 3.1 |
| switched virtual channel (SVC). SVC mode can be used when CoreBuilder |
| is in a backbone or workgroup topology, with PVC used whenever |
| necessary. ILMI enables automatic address registration for SVC. Addresses |
| can be registered manually via the LMA menus |
| Setting the Mode |
| The CoreBuilder will run UNI 3.0 SVC by default. You can work in UNI 3.1 |
| by choosing this option in the signalling setup menu. |
| Setting Network Prefix and ATM Addresses |
| ATM addresses are essential for establishing a connection using SVC. |
| Most devices that support SVC, also support automatic address |
| registration through the ILMI protocol. |
| A network prefix is essential for address registration to be executed. Refer |
| to CoreBuilder 7000 Family ATM Switches User Guide for proper network |
| prefix setting. |
| For connectivity with devices that do not support ILMI, ATM addresses |
| can be set manually using the Add ATM address function under ATM |
| address setup in the Administration Console menus. |
| Configuring a PVC |
| Permanent Virtual Channels (PVC) can be used to connect to devices that |
| do not support switched virtual channels (SVC) standard protocols. In the |
| CoreBuilder 7000 family ATM switch you can create |
| and |
| Configuration Connections menu, to create a PVC call, PTP or PTM. You |
| can also create an out VC in a PTM call, release a PVC call, release an out |
