4.Next specify the connection type by left mouse clicking on the Connection Type pull down menu and selecting ATM VC BUNDLED MULTICAST.

5.Using the left mouse button, select the desired Root Network Element, Slot/Card Type, and Network Interface/Interface Type for the originating “Root” endpoint.

6.Using the left mouse button, select the desired Leaf Network Element, Slot/Card Type, and Network Interface/Interface Type for the destination “Leaf” endpoint. After highlighting the Interface Type, select the Add button to define the Interface Type as a Leaf Interface. The highlighted interface should now be displayed in the Leaf Interface box to the right of the screen, and the interface card is removed from the Slot/Card Type box.

7.Multiple interface types may be selected as leaf interfaces by selecting them and clicking on the Add button to move them to the Leaf Interface box. Only one interface may be utilized per card for release 3.1 software packages. Once all leaf interfaces are selected for the VC bundled multicast connection, click on Apply using the left mouse button.

Note: If an interface was inadvertently selected as a Leaf Interface, it may be removed from the Leaf Interface box by highlighting it and clicking on the Delete button.

8.The next configuration screen displays the root and leaf network elements in a split screen. Refer to Figure 790-4for an example. At the upper section of the screen, select the Root Network Element VPI/NE/Rate (Kbps) to be utilized by using the left mouse button to click on and highlight the VPI number. VPIs with asterisks in front of them have already been utilized.

9.Next select the VCI numbers in the VCI/NE/Rate (Kbps) box. These VCI were defined during the card interface configuration. Refer to NTP-009for card configuration procedures if needed. Multiple VCIs may be selected (must be contiguous) by clicking on the first VCI selection and dragging to the last one. The user may opt to click on the first VCI, hold the shift key, and click on the last VCI to select multiple selections. VCIs with asterisks in front of them have already been utilized. These VCIs will be transported within the VPI selected. The quantity of VCIs selected must match the Leaf VCI quantity.

10.Once the Root VCIs are selected, the leaf interfaces become selectable at the lower section of the screen. Use the left mouse button to select them. These define each interface within the network where the Root VPI will terminate. If the leaf interfaces are already “configured”, they will have two asterisks preceding the interface identification, otherwise they may still be selected for configuration. Click on the interface to highlight it.

11.Next select a VPI interface displayed in the VPI/NE/Rate (Kbps) box. The number of VPIs for this port should have been configured at the port level during card interface configuration. Refer to NTP-009for card configuration procedures if needed.

12.Next select the VCI numbers for the leaf interfaces in the VCI/NE/Rate (Kbps) box. Multiple VCIs may be selected but must be contiguous. VCIs with asterisks in front of them have already been utilized. These VCIs will be duplicated for each leaf interface
