Configuring SPVCs (Offnet Circuits) Over PNNI
Frame Relay-to-ATM Network Interworking (FRF.5) allows you to connect a Frame
Relay endpoint to either a Frame Relay or ATM endpoint over an ATM backbone via a
PNNI link. You can also configure offnet circuits from an ATM endpoint to a Frame
Relay endpoint. Using FRF.5, offnet circuits over PNNI can be configured to route
traffic from a Lucent Frame Relay network to an offnet ATM network, and back to a
Frame Relay or ATM network.
This service uses Frame Relay-based UNI LPorts established over a PNNI network.
Endpoint 1 is chosen from a switch configured in Navis EMS-CBGX, and Endpoint 2
is defined as either an ATM or Frame Relay address. Endpoint 1 is the originator of
the circuit and Endpoint 2 is determined by the PNNI routing protocol by choosing the
switch that is advertising the destination address with the lowest cost.
For complete offnet circuit configuration instructions, see
Offnet Circuit Connection” on page 18-6

Configuring MPVCs
A management PVC (MPVC) can be used for all applications involving a switch and
an attached NMS or IP host. An MPVC is a PVC between the UNI or NNI logical
port, to which the NMS or IP host connects, and the processor module on the remote
switch. The switch that connects the NMS or IP host is not burdened by the traffic
traversing the MPVC.
Chapter 11, “Configuring Management Paths.”
Configuring MSPVCs
A management SPVC (MSPVC) connects the switch management port to an SVC
terminating address located on an adjacent switch. Use this management connection
as the NMS path to enable the NMS to manage the switch.
MSPVCs originate at an internal logical port located on the switch’s processor
module, either the CBX 500 switch processor (SP) or GX 550 node processor (NP).
They terminate at the switch’s I/O interface: IOM for a CBX 500, and BIO for a GX
550. MSPVCs provide a data path that accesses internal network management
functions. The MSPVC internal logical port is designated as
MgmtLPort.SW
<switch
name>. It uses an interface number (ifnum) of 4093. To form the MSPVC, connect the
MgmtLPort. SW
<switch name> endpoint to any target AESA address configured on
an ATM UNI logical port.
