by ATM PVC. The following introduction guides you through the
necessary steps to configure your DSL router.
According to your ISP instructions, specify the following
parameters:
VPI (Virtual Path Identifier): virtual path between two
points in an ATM network. The valid value range is from 0
to 255.
VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier): virtual channel between
two points in an ATM network. The valid value range is
from 32 to 65535 (1 to 31 are reserved for known
protocols).
Enable Quality Of Service: enabling QoS for a PVC
improves performance for selected classes of applications.
However, since QoS also consumes system resources,
the number of PVCs is reduced consequently. Use Quality
of Service in Advanced Setup to assign priorities for the
applications.
Figure 5 PVC and its QoS-configuration
For example, PVC 0/35 is to be modified and the default values
of QoS remain. In actual applications, you can modify them
according to your ISP’s instructions.
