Chapter 9 Switch Operating Procedures
Configuring VPI and VCI Ranges for SVCs and SPVCs
Step 4 To verify that the static address is deleted, enter the following command:
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a > dspatmaddr < portid >
Replace <portid> with the port address using the format slot:bay.line:ifnum These parameters are
described in
Table 9-1 .
Configuring VPI and VCI Ranges for SVCs and SPVCs
When you add a partition to a port, you define the minimum and maximum VPIs and VCIs for that port.
These VPIs and VCIs become available for all services unless you make additional configuration
changes. If this configuration is acceptable for your installation, you can skip this section. You are not
required to configure VPI and VCI ranges for SVCs and SPVCs.
The Cisco MGX switches allow you to define the minimum and maximum values for the following
parameters:
•
SVCC VPIs
• SVCC VCIs
•
SPVC VPIs
To configure VPI and VCI usage for connections on a specific port, use the following procedure.
Step 1 Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher.
Step 2
To display a list of PNNI ports, enter the dsppnports command.
Step 3 Enter the following command to bring down the PNNI port you want to configure:
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a > dnpnport < portid >
A PNNI port is automatically brought up when you add it. You must bring down the port before you can
change the port range. Replace <portid> using the format slot:bay.line:ifNum.
Table 9-1 describes these
parameters.
Table 9-24 ATM Address Configuration Parameters
Parameter Description
portid Port identifier in the format slot:bay.line:ifnum. These parameters are described in
Table 9-1 .
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.
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.
-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.
