Efficient Networks 107-0001-000 Remote setatmtraffic, Upstream speed requested in kilobits/second

Chapter 7: WAN Interface Commands	Efficient Networks® Router family
	Command Line Interface Guide

Parameters

***When entered with no parameters, the current upstream speed is displayed.

<kb/s>a Upstream speed requested in kilobits/second.

aInteger, 125-8000

Example

The following command example requests a speed of 512 kilobits/second. However, 512 is not one of the discrete speed values allowed, so the next lower value, 500 kilobits/second, is set, as indicated by the message.

-> atm speed 512

ATM Upstream Rate: 500 Kb/sec or 1179 cells/sec

Response

The following is a typical response from a request for the current speed.

-> atm speed

ATM Upstream Rate: 326 Kb/sec or 768 cells/sec

remote setatmtraffic

Sets ATM traffic-shaping on a remote router. ATM traffic-shaping allows the user to set the average rate at which cells are sent, that is, the Sustained Cell Rate (SCR), to a value lower than the ATM link speed, the Peak Cell Rate (PCR).

ATM traffic-shaping should be used to allocate bandwidth whenever more than one remote router is defined. Enter a remote setATMTraffic command for each remote. For example, if you have five remotes, enter five commands to allocate the bandwidth.

If no ATM traffic values are set, ATM traffic for the remote is shaped using UBR (unspecified bit rate).

If a CBR (constant bit rate) is required, then specify 1 as the Maximum Burst Size (MBS). If a VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is required, specify a value greater than 1 as the Maximum Burst Size (MBS).
