Configuring Two-Ended Soft PVC Connections
To configure a two-ended soft PVC connection, follow these steps:
.
Note The default value for the upc option is pass.
Note The default value for the pd option is use-cttr.
Note For VBR-nrt and VBR-rt service categories you must configure the MBS (even if the value is default)
in the ATM connection traffic table row attached to the passive leg.
Note You can use the debug atm sig-soft (interface) and debug atm rm events commands to get information
on why a passive leg is not used due to traffic parameter mismatches.
Command Purpose
Step1 Switch-C(config)# atm filter-set name [index
[number]] [permit | deny] [template | time-of-day
{anytime | start-time {end-time}}]
(Optional) Used to configure the access-control
filter-set parameter in on the passive
destination-side of the soft VC.
Step2 Switch-C(config)# interface atm
card/subcard/port
Switch-C(config-if)#
Selects the interface, on the terminating switch,
being configured.
Step3 Switch-C(config-if)# atm soft-vc dest-vpi
dest-vci passive [pd pd] [upc upc] [rx-cttr index]
[tx-cttr index] [access-control {src-address
atm-address | filter-set name}]
Configures the passive leg on the terminating
switch interface.
Step4 Switch-B(config-if)# atm soft-vc source-vpi
source-vci dest-address atm-address dest-vpi
dest-vci [enable | disable] [upc upc] [pd pd]
[rx-cttr index] [tx-cttr index] [retry-interval
[first retry-interval] [maximum retry-interval]]
Creates a two-ended soft PVC on the source
switch that uses the passive half leg on the
terminating switch.
Step5 Switch-C(config-if)# end Switches to EXEC command mode.
Step6 Switch-C# show atm vc interface atm
card/subcard/port vpi vci
Displays the passive half-leg configuration
information of two-ended soft PVC.
