AMI Configuration Commands
B.7.1.2 Creating an NSAP Route
This command allows the user to create an NSAP static route. Enter the fol-
lowing parameters:
localhost::configuration nsap route>
new <NSAP> <mask> <port> <vpi> [-cost <cost>] [-cbr_cap
<cbr_cap>] [-vbr_cap <vbr_cap>] [abr] [epd]
NSAP Indicates the complete 20-byte NSAP route address
in hexadecimal format.
mask Indicates the bit mask indicating number of high-
order bits to use for routing purposes. The default
mask for a static route to a host is 152 and the default
mask for a static route to another switch is 104.
port Specifies the port through which this NSAP route
can be reached.
vpi Specifies the UNI 3.0 signalling path through which
this NSAP route can be reached.
-cost <cost> Indicates the routing metric for this link. There is a
cost for each link in a route. The sum of these link
costs determines the overall cost of a route. To expe-
dite traffic on a route, the user should try to mini-
mize the overall cost of a route. For a critical route,
then, choose a small cost value. For a lesser impor-
tant route, choose a higher cost value. The default
value is 100.
-cbr_cap <cbr_cap> Indicates the maximum CBR (Constant Bit Rate)
capacity allowed for any single connection on this
route. This number is limited by the actual CBR
capacity available on the output link specified for
this route.
-vbr_cap <vbr_cap> Indicates the maximum VBR (Variable Bit Rate)
capacity allowed for any single connection on this
route. This number is limited by the actual VBR
capacity available on the output link specified for
this route.
abr This is an optional parameter. The abr parameter
should be used for links that support ABR traffic.
The
abr parameter should be not be used for links
that do not support ABR traffic.
