Chapter 4 Configuring PPP over ATM with NAT

Configure the ATM WAN Interface

BETA DRAFT - CISCO CONFIDENTIAL

Configure the ATM WAN Interface

Perform these steps to configure the ATM interface, beginning in global configuration mode.

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

interface type number

Enters interface configuration mode for the ATM

 

 

interface (labeled ADSLoPOTS or G.SHDSL on

 

Example:

the back of your router).

 

Router(config)# interface atm 0

Note This interface was initially configured

 

Router(config-if)#

during basic router configuration. See

 

 

 

 

“Configure WAN Interfaces” section on

 

 

page 1-7.

Step 2

 

 

pvc vpi/vci

Creates an ATM PVC for each end node (up to ten)

 

 

with which the router communicates. Enters ATM

 

Example:

virtual circuit configuration mode.

 

Router(config-if)# pvc 8/35

When a PVC is defined, AAL5SNAP

 

Router(config-if-atm-vc)#

encapsulation is defined by default. Use the

 

 

 

 

encapsulation command to change this, as shown

 

 

in Step 3. The VPI and VCI arguments cannot be

 

 

simultaneously specified as zero; if one is 0, the

 

 

other cannot be 0.

 

 

For details about this command and additional

 

 

parameters that can be set, see the Cisco IOS

 

 

Wide-Area Networking Command Reference.

Step 3

 

 

encapsulation {aal5auto aal5autoppp

Specifies the encapsulation type for the PVC and

 

virtual-template number [group group-name]

points back to the dialer interface.

 

aal5ciscoppp virtual-template number

For details about this command and additional

 

aal5mux protocol aal5nlpid aal5snap}

 

parameters that can be set, see the Cisco IOS

 

 

 

Example:

Wide-Area Networking Command Reference.

 

 

 

Router(config-if-atm-vc)# encapsulation

 

 

aal5mux ppp dialer

 

 

Router(config-if-atm-vc)#

 

Step 4

 

 

dialer pool-member number

Specifies the ATM interface as a member of a

 

 

dialer profile dialing pool. The pool number must

 

Example:

be in the range of 1–255.

 

Router(config-if-atm-vc)# dialer

 

 

pool-member 1

 

 

Router(config-if-atm-vc)#
