General PXM1E Configuration Procedures
To display all configured parties for a specific connection, enter the dsppartiespercon <portid> <vpi>
<vci> command. Replace <portid> with the Port identifier whose parties you want to view, in the format.
Replace <vpi> with the appropriate VPI of the connection, and <vci> with the appropriate VCI of the
connection.

Obtaining the NSAP for a Party
The easiest way to obtain the NSAP for a new party is to add a slave endpoint at the port on which the
new party will reside. Doing so causes the switch to display an NSAP which identifies the destination
port, VPI, and VCI. After you display the NSAP, you must delete it so that the port, VPI, and VCI are
available for the new party to use.
Step 1
Establish a configuration session with the switch that will host the party, using a user name with
GROUP1 privileges or higher.
Step 2
At the active PXM1E prompt, enter the addcon command to establish a slave end-point as described
earlier in this chapter in “
Configuring the Slave Side of SPVCs and SPVPs

In the following example, the user creates a slave on logical port 12 with a VPI of 101, a VCI of 101,
and the CBR service type.

slave endpoint added successfully
slave endpoint id : 4700918100000000001A533377000001073B0C00.101.101
Step 3
Write down the NSAP address the switch displays when the addcon command is complete. You will
need this address when you add the party to the root of the P2MP connection.
Step 4
Enter the delcon command to delete the connection you added in Step 2.
Step 5
Enter the dspcon command to verify that the slave was deleted properly.
Once you have the NSAP for a party, you can add that party to a root.
