Configuring the Soft PVP or Soft PVC Route Optimization Feature
Soft PVP or soft PVC route optimization must be enabled and configured to determine the point at which
a better route is found and the old route is reconfigured.
To enable and configure a softPVC/PVP interface with route optimization, perform the following steps,
beginning in global configuration mode:
Example
The following example shows how to configure an interface with a route optimization interval
configured as every 30 minutes between the hours of 6:00 P.M. and 5:00 A.M.:
Switch(config)# interface atm 0/0/0
Switch(config-if)# atm route-optimization soft-connection interval 30 time-of-day 18:00
5:00
Displaying an Interface Route Optimization Configuration
To display the interface route optimization configuration, use the following EXEC command:
Example
The following example shows the route optimization configuration of ATM interface0/0/0:
Switch# show atm interface atm 0/0/0

Command Purpose
Step1 Switch(config)# interface [atm
card/subcard/port | serial card/subcard/port:cgn]
Switch(config-if)#
Selects the interface to configure. Enter the
interface number of the source end of the
soft PVC/PVP. Route optimization works for the
source end of a soft PVC/PVP only and is ignored
if configured on the destination interface.
Step2 Switch(config-if)# atm route-optimization
soft-connection [interval minutes] [time-of-day
{anytime | start-time end-time}]
Configures the interface for route optimization.
Command Purpose
show atm interface [atm card/subcard/port |
serial card/subcard/port:cgn]
Shows the interface configuration route
optimization configuration.
