Configuring the ATM Virtual Circuit

The ATM VC Configuration table displays the following fields (contact your ISP to determine these settings):

Field

Description

 

 

Interface

This field indicates the name of the lower-level interface on which

 

this VC operates. The low-level interface names are preconfigured

 

in the software and identify the type of traffic that can be

 

supported, such as data or voice. Internet data services typically

 

use an aal5-type interface.

 

 

Vpi

These settings identify a unique ATM data path for communication

Vci

between your ADSL Barricade and your ISP.

Mux Type

 

 

 

Max Proto

If you are using an AAL5-type of interface, this setting indicates

per AAL5

the number of higher-level interfaces that the VC can support

 

(the higher level interfaces can be PPP, EoA, or IPoA interfaces).

 

Contact your ISP to determine which connection protocol(s) they

 

require.

 

 

Action (s)

This field displays the icons you can click on to modify ( — see

 

 

page 94) and delete ( ) the associated interface. You cannot

 

delete an ATM interface if another protocol such as PPP, EoA, or

 

IPoA has been defined to operate over the ATM interface. Delete

 

the higher-level interface first, and then delete the ATM interface.
