PVC Setup and Installation The first part of any PVC setup is the definition of a profile. There are 16 a vailable
profiles that can be defined and configured. These profiles determine characteristic s
for shaping and managing traffic.
When establishing a PVC, the traffic class (such as CBR, UBR, etc.), the QoS
parameters, traffic shaping parameters, and UPC pa rameters can be set. T he SET
PROFILE command allows the user to specify the traffic type, un ique name, PCR,
SCR, MBS, and whether to use EPD. There are also 8 shapers that can be
configured, with values for PCR, SCR, and MBS.
The ATM Forum has the following table to assist with configuring profiles:
1. Configure a profile for the PVC.
SET profile [traffic type] [profile name[up to 10
characters]]
You may also be prompted to set the PCR at 1412830 (maximum) and EPD
to on (1).
Example: SET profile 4 PVC1 1412830 1
The example defines a profile PVC1 with maximum PCR and EPD is on.
2. Define a shaper for the PVC (optional).
SET shaper [slot number][port number] [shaper
number[1-8]] [PCR]
Example: SET shaper 02 1 1412830 1412830 1412830
The example defines shaper #1 for port 02 with maximum PCR, SCR, and
MBS.
