Chapter 12 Managing ATM Connections

Uploading Existing ATM Connections and QoS Profiles

Naming Convention for the Uploaded Connection Objects

The ATM Connection Upload queries the device for the VPI and VCI values of the PVCs through the MIBs and simultaneously, it telnets to the device to query the names of the PVCs for creating the connection objects in the EM. Hence, if the management passwords are not configured in the EM, then the names for the connection objects cannot be retrieved by the EM.

The naming conventions that are followed for the connection objects during upload can be by,

Configuring the Management password information, or

Without configuring the Management password information.

Configuring the Management Password Information

When the Management password information is set, the naming convention followed for the PVCs is different. In this scenario, if any PVC is created in the device, it is represented in the EM in accordance with the value set in the management information window. For example, for a named PVC, ciscoPVC1 and for an unnamed PVC, it would be displayed as VCL_7-0_30.75

Without configuring the Management Password Information

When an ATM Connection upload is initiated, all the connections in the device are uploaded to the EM and the PVCs would be named as VCL_interface_vpi.vci (ex: VCL_7-0_30.75). In this case, the PVC names are ignored, if any PVCs are created with the name specified in the device.

Note All the PVCs are represented by this convention in the EM.
