Chapter 3 Provisioning PXM1E Communication Links
Quickstart Provisioning Procedures
After you configure a BPX PNNI trunk, the trunk is ready to support SVCs. You can also create SPVCs
and SPVPs between CPE at each end of the trunk as described in the “
” section later in this chapter.
Step 3
addport <options>
Related commands:
dspports
Add and configure ATM ports. This step establishes ATM
communications between two ATM devices.
Specify NNI for interswitch trunks.
See the “
”section later in this chapter.
Step 4
addpart <options>
Related commands:
dspparts
dsppart
cnfpart
Add and configure a PNNI partition for the trunk. This step
reserves trunk resources for the PNNI controller.
See the “
Partitioning Port Resources Between Controllers
”
section later in this chapter.
Step 5
dnpnport <portid>
cnfpnportsig <options>
uppnport <portid>
Related commands:
dsppnports
dsppnport <portid>
dsppnportsig <portid>
Define the signaling protocol used on the trunk. The default
signaling protocol is UNI Version 3.1, so you must change the
signaling protocol to pnni10. For example:
pop20two.7.PXM.a >
cnfpnportsig
<
portid>
-nniver
pnni10
See the “
Selecting the Port Signaling Protocol
” section later in this
chapter.
Step 6
upilmi <ifNum> <partId>
cnfilmi <options>
Related commands:
dspports
dspilmis
Configure and start ILMI on the trunk. ILMI is required on the
BXM end of the trunk, so it must be enabled on the PXM1E side
too.
See the “
” section later in this chapter.
Step 7
dsppnni-link
dsppnni-neighbor
When both ends of the link are configured, verify the PNNI
communications between the two ends. In the dsppnni-link
report, there should be an entry for the port for which you are
verifying communications. The Hello state reported should be
twoWayInside and the Remote node ID should display the remote
node ATM address after the second colon.
See the “
Verifying PNNI Trunk Communications
” section later in
this chapter.
