Chapter8: Configuring ATM Virtual Circuits
Avidia System Configuration and Management User Manual 165
[-txtraf <src index>] [-rxtraf <src index>]
(Optional) The index number of the transmit (-txtraf) and receive (-rxtraf) traffic profiles
you want to assign to the source port of this PVPC. Transmitted traffic refers to all traffic
transmitted out of the Avidia chassis, while received traffic refers to all traffic received into
the Avidia chassis. The transmit and receive traffic profiles assigned to the PVPC source
port are adjusted to reflect the same service on the destination port.
See “Displaying ATM Traffic Profiles” on page 156 for instructions on viewing the list of
configured profiles. If you omit this parameter, an index of 0 (no profile) is assigned. If you
specify a profile for transmitted traffic, but not for received traffic, the received traffic is
automatically configured to match the transmitted traffic.
[-backup [<lport> <vpi>]]
(Optional) Configures a backup PVPC using the specified destination port (format
slot.port) and VPI. Use the line card port (format slot.port) for the destination port. The VPI
values can either be the same value as the primary PVPC or a different value. Omitting the
<lport> <vpi> parameters automatically establishes a backup PVPC on the other line
card using the same VPI as the primary PVPC.
[-y]
(Optional) Results in the creation of the specified range of PVPCs without first displaying
a confirmation message. If you omit this parameter, a confirmation message displays.
Examples
::pvpc=> new 8.5 9 12.1 9 -admin up -txtraf 3 -rxtraf 5 -backup
11.1 5 254
::pvpc=> range 100 8.5 9 12.1 9 -admin up -txtraf 3
-rxtraf 5
