ATM Connection Configuration

The following figures and tables describe the parameters used to configure ATM connections:

•Table 7-2, Traffic Policing Definitions.

—This table describes the policing options that may be selected for ATM connection types: CBR, UBR, and VBR. The policing options for ABR are the same as for VBR.

•Table 7-3, Connection Parameters with Default Settings and Ranges

—This table specifies the ATM connection parameter ranges and defaults. Not all the parameters are used for every connection type. When adding connections, you are prompted for the applicable parameters, as specified in the prompt sequence diagrams included in Figure 7-3through Figure 7-10.

•Table 7-4, Connection Parameter Descriptions

—This table defines the connection parameters listed in Table 7-3.

The following figures list the connection parameters in the same sequence as they are entered when a connection is added:

Figure 7-6,ABR Standard Connection Prompt Sequence

The following figure shows the VSVD network segment and external segment options available when ABR Standard or ABR ForeSight is selected. ForeSight congestion control is useful when both ends of a connection do not terminate on BXM cards. At present, FCES (Flow Control External Segment) as shown in Figure 7-7is not available for ABR with ForeSight.
