Chapter4 Configuring Interfaces Configuring the ATM Uplink Interface (Catalyst8540)
In addition, the ATM uplink interface uses the non-configurable values shown in Table 4-5.
Initially Configuring the ATM Uplink Interface
You should configure the following properties for a newly installed ATM uplink interface:
IP routing
IP address
To initially configure the ATM uplink interface, perform the following steps, beginning in global
configuration mode:
Transmit clock source [no]atm clockinternal no internal (line)
Cisco DiscoveryProtocol (CDP) [no]cdp enable CDP enabled
ATM VCs per VP atm vc-per-vp 1024
Table4-4 ATM Uplink Interface Default Configuration Values (continued)

Command Purpose
Step1 Router(config)# ip routing Enables IP routing.
Step2 Router(config)# interface atm
slot/subslot/interface
Router(config-if)#
Enters interface configuration mode and specifies the ATM
interface to configure.
Step3 Router(config-if)# ip address
ip-address subnet-mask Assigns an IP address and subnet mask to the interface.
Step4 Router(config-if)# atm clock
internal Specifies theinternal clock for the interface. The default mode
for the clock is no internal, which is the same as the line clock.
Step5 Router(config-if)# no shutdown Enables the interface with the previous configurations.
