Chapter 13 xDSL Port Setup

Table 21 VC Setup (continued)

LABEL

DESCRIPTION

US VC Profile

Use the drop-down list box to select a VC profile to use for this channel’s

 

upstream traffic. The IES-612-51A does not perform upstream traffic policing if

 

you do not specify an upstream VC profile.

 

Note: Upstream traffic policing should be used in conjunction with

 

the ATM shaping feature on the subscriber’s device. If the

 

subscriber’s device does not apply the appropriate ATM

 

shaping, all upstream traffic will be discarded due to

 

upstream traffic policing.

 

 

PVID

Type a PVID (Port VLAN ID) to assign to untagged frames received on this

 

channel.

 

 

Priority

Use the drop-down list box to select the priority value (0 to 7) to add to incoming

 

frames without a (IEEE 802.1p) priority tag. An asterisk (*) denotes a super

 

channel.

 

 

Add

Click this to add or save channel settings on the selected port. (The name of the

Apply

button depends on whether or not you have clicked on a PVC number in the

 

Index column.)

 

This saves your changes to the IES-612-51A’s volatile memory. The IES-612-

 

51A loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Config

 

Save link on the navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile

 

memory when you are done configuring.

 

 

Cancel

Click Cancel to start configuring the screen again.

 

 

Show Port

Select the number of an ADSL port for which to display VC settings (or display

 

all of them).

 

 

Index

This field displays the number of the PVC. Click a PVC’s index number to use

 

the top of the screen to edit the PVC.

 

Note: At the time of writing, you cannot edit the VPI and VCI. If

 

you want to change them, add a new PVC with the desired

 

settings. Then you can delete any unwanted PVCs.

 

 

Port

This field displays the number of the ADSL port on which the PVC is configured.

 

 

VPI/VCI

This field displays the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Circuit Identifier

 

(VCI). The VPI and VCI identify a channel on this port.

 

 

DS / US VC Profile

This shows which VC profile this channel uses for downstream traffic shaping.

 

The VC profile for upstream policing also displays if the channel is configured to

 

use one.

 

 

PVID

This is the PVID (Port VLAN ID) assigned to untagged frames or priority frames

 

(0 VID) received on this channel. An asterisk (*) denotes a super channel.

 

 

Priority

This is the priority value (0 to 7) added to incoming frames without a (IEEE

 

802.1p) priority tag. An asterisk (*) denotes a super channel.
