Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports

Listing the VPI and VCI range information for all virtual ports

You can view the VPI and signalling VCI range 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 VPI and signalling VCI range information about the virtual ports, use the vport show vpivciranges command.

Command:

M15-155s8:/>vport show vpivciranges [<vport id>]

Parameter:

<vport id> The virtual port.

 

 

This is displayed in the format <slot>.<port>.<virtual port number>.

 

 

If a <vport number> parameter is not supplied then the VPI and

 

 

signalling VCI ranges are supplied for all virtual ports.

Example:

M15-155s8:/>vport show vpivciranges

Output:
