Each of the fields for

is described as follows.
LLC
or
VC
and two different methods of
encapsulating multiple sessions. The default is set to
LLC
.
LLC
With
LLC
encapsulation, a link control
header is added to the Ethernet packet that
identifies the protocol type (Ethernet). This
allows multiple protocols to be transmitted
over the ATM Virtual Circuit (VC).
Encapsulation
VC
With
VC m
ultiplexing, no link control header
is needed as the ATM VC is assumed to be
carrying a single protocol.
