Chapter 3 Provisioning PXM1E Communication Links
General PXM1E Configuration Procedures
Note
The addaddr command is used to define destination addresses for static links and to specify
static addresses for links to CPE. The command format above shows the options as they apply
when defining destination addresses for static links.
describes the parameters used with the addaddr command.
Step 4
To verify that the new address is assigned, enter the following command:

Table 3-13 ATM Address Configuration Parameters
Parameter
Description
portid
Enter the port identifier in the format slot:bay.line:ifnum. These parameters are
described in
.
atm-address
Enter the ATM address using up to 40 nibbles. The ATM address can include up to
20 bytes, which is 40 nibbles or 160 bits. To summarize a group of destination
addresses, enter an ATM address that is less than 20 bytes and includes the common
bytes in the group of destination addresses.
length
Enter the length, in bits, of the address you specified with the <atm-address>
parameter. Each nibble is equal to 4 bits. The acceptable range for the parameter is
from 0 to 160 bits. When you enter a complete 20-byte ATM address, the length is
160. When you summarize a group of destination addresses, the length is equal to the
number of bytes entered multiplied by 8.
-type
Enter the address type, which is ext (external) for destination addresses on the other
side of a static link. The int (internal) value is used when creating static addresses for
links to CPE.
Default = int.
-proto
For static link destination addresses, specify the -proto option with the static value.
The local value applies to CPE links.
Default = local.
-plan
Enter the address plan, which is either e164 (E.164) or nsap (NSAP). For an NSAP
address, the first byte of the address automatically implies one of the three NSAP
address plans: NSAP E.164, NSAP DCC, or NSAP ICD.
Default = nsap.
-scope
PNNI scope of advertisement. The scope defines the level of the PNNI hierarchy at
which this address is advertised. Enter 0 to advertise the destination address to all
nodes in the node’s peer group.
Range: 0 through 104.
Default = 0.
-redistribute
Specifies whether or not the ATM address should be distributed or advertised to PNNI
neighbor nodes. Enter yes to enable distribution and enter no to disable. When this
option is set to yes, the node distributes the address to the PNNI neighbors defined
with the scope option. When set to no, the address is not advertised to any other
nodes.
Default = no.
