Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports
60 Avaya M770 ATM Switch User’s Guide
Listing the status information for all virtual ports
You can view the status information for all virtual ports on a module or for a
specific virtual port.
Any virtual port information that is marked with an asterisk (*) has been learned by
the M770 ATM Switch during the ILMI dialogue with the remote device.
Information that is not marked with an asterisk has either been configured by the
user or is the default setting for the virtual port.
To view the virtual port status, enter the vport show status command.
Poll Mode ILMI polling is used to verify that the same end-station remains
attached at a given port. There are two methods that can be
used:
• check the ESI has not changed. This is referred to as “Port +
ESI”.
• check that the system up-time has not changed by a
significant amount. This is referred to as “SysUpTime”.
Multi Reg This specifies whether multiple ILMI registration is enabled or
not on the virtual port.
Strict AAL
Trans. This specifies whether the translation of the AAL parameter,
that is between UNI 3.0, IISP 3.0, UNI3.1 and IISP 3.1 should be
OFF, Normal or Strict.
Sig. SSCOP
Rx. Window This parameter is reserved for future use.
All ports are set to the default parameter.
Wait for Peer
SSCOP This specifies whether this vport will wait indefinitely for an
incoming QSAAL connection.
