FR-ATM VC CONNECTIONS

11.The bottom section of the FR-ATM window show in Figure 786-5displays all the parameters for the ATM half of the connection. The network element and interface identification are displayed.

12.If the connection is to be configured as a segment endpoint, select the Segment Endpoint box using the left mouse button for both the originating and destination ends. This option will enable OAM cell loopback from this point to the originating end for performance monitoring capabilities.

13.Just below the Segment Endpoint box are the Ingress and Egress NDC selections. These will enable network data collection for the inbound and/or outbound traffic.

14.Next, under the heading VPI / NE / Rate (Kbps) and VCI / NE / Rate (Kbps), select an available VPI and VCI number to be assigned for the endpoint. VPIs and VCIs with an NE and Rate displayed are already in use.

15.To the right, the Service Provider Profile is displayed. Fill in the text boxes for each of the following parameters:

•Remote Interface Identifier - a fifteen-digit decimal number identifying the far end interface (UNI or B-ICI).

•Remote Connection Identifier - a four-digit VPI or five digit VCI decimal number identifying the VCI and/or VPI at the remote interface.

•Study Indication - select using the left mouse button. This indicates the usage information is to be generated for study purposes.

16.When all of the parameters are filled in for both the originating FR endpoint and the destination ATM VC endpoint, select the Next button at the bottom of the window to continue.

17.The screen shown in Figure 786-6appears. Again the connection name assigned and the connection type selected from the previous screens are displayed. The window is divided again showing the originating and destination NEs, and the Network Interface/Interface Type and this time displays the DLCI or VCI at the end of the string. If DE Bit Tagging was selected from the previous screen under the PVC Endpoint Parameters, the Service Class Type will be NRT-VBR3. If not selected the class will be NRT-VBR2. This is not a selectable field for the FR end of the connection. The ATM VC endpoint is configurable for either VBR2 or VBR3.

18.Under the Ingress Traffic Contract heading is listed “NEW” and any existing traffic contracts. Select from an existing traffic contract if available at both ends of the connection or select NEW to create a new contract. If an existing contract is selected, click on the Apply button to finish configuring the connection, otherwise go to step 19. The system should respond with “Connection Configuration Successful”.
