3.17USING THE BANDWIDTH ALLOCATION MODE FEATURE

The HSIM-A6DP provides a feature that allows the user to create PVCs, and conﬁgure each PVC to be guaranteed a set amount of bandwidth, up to the amount of bandwidth that the APIM provides.

NOTE

Up to 1020 PVCs may be created using the Bandwidth Allocation feature. However, ensure that the total amount of bandwidth provided by the APIM is not exceeded.

For example, an HSIM-A6DP with an APIM-22 installed provides

155 Mbps of bandwidth. The Bandwidth Allocation Mode feature could allow the user to create 2 PVCs. The ﬁrst PVC could be guaranteed 100 Mbps of the available bandwidth. The second PVC could be guaranteed the remaining 55 Mbps of bandwidth. Up to 1020 PVCs may be created using the Bandwidth Allocation feature. However, ensure that the total amount of bandwidth provided by the APIM is NOT exceeded.

The following sections provide instructions on how to conﬁgure the HSIM-A6DP using the Bandwidth Allocation Mode feature.

3.18ENABLING THE BANDWIDTH ALLOCATION MODE FEATURE

To enable the Bandwidth Allocation Mode feature, perform the following steps:

1.Use the arrow keys to highlight the CONNECTIONS menu item from the ATM screen.

2.Press ENTER. The ATM Connections screen, Figure 3-16, displays.
