2-240 SmartSwitch ATM Switch Reference Manual
PVC
PVC
Use PVC to manage PVCs on the switch. You assign two physical or virtual ports on the switch as PVC endpoints.
Note
When you add the PVC, the endpoints are called Port 1 and Port 2 (corresponding
to order of entry). For subsequent action on the PVC (activate, deactivate, show,
delete), the endpoints are called High Port and Low Port. High and Low are based
on the lexical order of the port numbers. For example, port 2B1 is higher than port
1B1, port 2B2 is higher than port 2B1, and so on.
Note
The following applies to SmartSwitch 2500 family only: You can not delete,
deactivate, or clear a PVC if an IP/ATM client is attached to the PVC through the
IPATMPVC attribute.
Operators
activate, add, clear, deactivate, delete, show
Note
The following applies to SmartSwitch 6500 only: You can hot-swap TSMs.
Hot-swapping is replacing a module when the chassis is powered up. If you
replace a TSM with another TSM of the same type (same I/O ports), existing
configuration of port parameters is not affected. This includes parameters set
using any of the following attributes: ATMRoute, CACServiceClassBw,
IlmiConfig, NetPrefix, Port, PortConfig, PVC, PVP, ServiceRegistry, SigTimer,
SigStatistics, SSCOPConfig, and SSCOPStatistics. If you replace a TSM with
another TSM of a different type, existing configuration of port parameters is
deleted. The deletion occurs when the new module is plugged into the chassis
backplane.
