Configuring Bridging and Routing Sessions

228 Avidia System Configuration and Management User Manual

CONFIGURING BRIDGING AND ROUTING SESSIONS

You can configure bridging and routing sessions using PVCs that terminate on the management

card (for example, PVCs between ADSL cards and the management card or PVCs between OC3

line cards and the management card). You can configure 96 bridging and routing sessions.

To configure a bridging or routing session, you configure a PVC between a line or channel card

and the management card, then set up the desired service for the session (bridging, routing or

both). The system automatically assigns the management card VPI and VCI for each session. If

you are configuring a session using a frame-based card, the system automatically assigns the

VPI and VCI and configures the session to use VC-MUX_Bridged encapsulation mode.

You configure sessions using the command-line interface from the ::session=> prompt.

From the ::root=> prompt, type the following command then press to display the

::session=> prompt.

Parameters

<slot.port>

The line or channel card slot and port you want to use for this PVC.

the PVC, as the system automatically assigns the VPI in this case.

The VCI you want to use for this PVC. Type * if you are using an SDSL channel card for

the PVC, as the system automatically assigns the VCI in this case.
