11. ipatm lifetime

Syntax:

ipatm lifetime <secs>

Description:

Displays or sets idle time-out for IP-over-ATM SVCs: if there is no traffic on an SVC for this period, then it will be disconnected. (It might be disconnected before this period in order to make room for new connections.) There is no way to disable the time-out, but “ip ipatm lifetime 999999” will have much the same effect. Configuration saving saves this information. The default lifetime is 60 seconds.

Example:

DSL> ip ipatm lifetime

Idle lifetime for connections: 1m

DSL> ip ipatm lifetime 90

Idle lifetime for connections: 1m30s

12. ipatm pvc

Syntax:

ipatm pvc

ipatm pvc add <i/f> <vci>/[<IP address>][/<pcr>] [<port>] ipatm pvc delete <vci> [<port>]

ipatm pvc flush

Description:

Lists configured PVCs for use by IP-over-ATM; configures another; deletes one; or deletes all. “<i/f>” is the name of an interface configured for IP-over-ATM using PVCs.

“<vci>” is the VCI to use for the PVC. The range of possible VCIs depends on the system.

“<IP address>” is the IP address of the machine at the other end of the PVC. If it is not specified, TCP/IP will use Inverse ATMARP (RFC 1577) to determine the IP address; if it is specified, then Inverse ATMARP will not be used.

“<pcr>” is the peak cell rate, in cells per second. The default is 60000. (If neithe r IP address nor PCR is specified, the “/” after the VCI can be omitted.)

“<port>” is the port name: it must be specified if the machine is a switch, and not otherwise. Configuration saving saves this information.
