Note that in this example, we have chosen the following attributes for the PVC:

Workstation attached on the local 8285: slot.port 2.1.

Workstation attached on the remote 8285: slot.port 1.9.

PVC_id = 100.

This is an arbitrary number that you can use to identify the PVC on various displays.

Remote hub identifier = 2.

This identifies the hub number (HN) of the remote hub (the hub on which the PVC terminates) within the cluster.

VPI/VCI on the local hub:

VPI = 1

VCI = 500

VPI/VCI on the remote hub:

VPI = 0

VCI = 400

PVC type = best_effort.

The VPI/VCI values chosen for each port must be free at the time of defining the PVC. You can find out the VPI/VCI values that are currently allocated to the other connections on the port by using the Nways Campus manager ATM for AIX. If you are not sure which VPI/VCI is available for allocation, you may use the following command, which will allow the 8285 Control-Point available VPI/VCI pair that is assigned for the PVC on each port:

You can display the configuration information about a specific PVC or all the PVCs using the SHOW PVC command. The following example shows the output that will be displayed as a result of this command:
