Options: Enable or disable Default: Enable

Timing Mode Clocking is performed by the FORMULA 8200 (local) or by another switch on

the network (loop). Options: Local or loop. Default: local

Now that you have conﬁgured an ATM port, you need to select a service for forwarding data trafﬁc for the ATM end-system environment. This comprises the second part of your ATM network conﬁguration process.

The FORMULA 8200 switch ATM uplink module supports the following ATM end-system services:

❑

Classical IP (see page 1-4)

❑

LAN emulation client (LEC) (see page 1-7)

❑

Point-to-point bridging (PTOP) (see page 1-12)

1-3

Configuring Classical IP Over ATM (CIP)

Current classical IP (CIP) over the ATM model allows direct connections only between nodes that are in the same logical IP subnet (LIS). IP datagrams must traverse through routers whenever they go outside IP subnet boundaries, even when the source and destinations reside in the same ATM cloud.

IP switching is a way of providing high throughput IP packet transfer over ATM while maintaining full compatibility with existing IP networks and applications. IP switching dynamically selects application trafﬁc that is likely to have long sessions for IP switching, while using conventional IP routing for low bandwidth application data.

Y ou can conﬁgure up t o 16 CIP connections for every FORMULA 8200 switch.

Note

When using CIP, make sure that the ATM port is configured for SVC mode.

T o c onﬁgure CIP par ameters f or an ATM service, you need to perform the following procedures in sequence:

1. Create a VLAN with a valid IP address, using the command,

CONFIG/VLAN #. Refer to the FORMULA 8200 User’s Guide for the

VLAN/

procedures.

2. Create a CIP service.

3. Set the connection type.

4. Set the following values:

❑ The VCI value if it is a PVC connection ❑ The ARP server ATM address if it is an SVC connection

5. Define an IP address and subnet mask for this CIP service. The CIP’s IP address must be on a different subnet than the

VLAN’s IP address.

1-4

6. Save the CIP configuration

AT-8202 ATM Uplink User’s Guide

To configure CIP services:

1. Use the VLAN/SHOW/VLAN command to verify that a valid IP address exists.

The

VLAN/SHOW/VLAN command displays the following

Note

To connect two switches for CIP service, you must configure the other switch with a similar configuration. Also, both subnets and VCIs must be identical on both switches. The CIP index, however, does not need to be the same on both switches.

Configuring the LAN Emulation Client (LEC)

You can conﬁgure the FORMULA 8200 switch as a LAN emulation client (LEC) within an emulated LAN (ELAN) environment. An LEC is a type of virtual port that performs data forwarding, address resolution, and other control functions over ATM when attached to a bridge group on the switch. The LEC provides the MAC-level emulated Ethernet IEEE 802.3 service interface to higher-level software. The LEC uses the ATM Forum-speciﬁed signaling and LAN emulation control protocols to establish switched virtual connections (SVCs) with other LECs across ATM.

AT-8202 ATM Uplink User’s Guide

For detailed information on the LEC, refer to the ATM Forum speciﬁcation, LAN Emulation Over ATM (v1.0).

To conﬁgure LEC parameters for an ATM service, you will need to:

❑ Configure a LEC service ❑ Define a VLAN ID or number ❑ Set the port service for binding an ATM port

Note

Make sure that the ATM port is configured for SVC mode and that the ILMI is enabled.

You can conﬁgure up to 16 LAN emulation clients (LECs).

To configure an ATM LEC service:

1. Verify that a valid IP address exists by using the VLAN/SHOW/

VLAN command.

The

VLAN/SHOW/VLAN command displays the following

Configuring Point-to-Point (PTOP)

PTOP bridging enables setup between two or more parties to share a virtual channel connection (VCC) using either a permanent virtual connection (PVC) or a switched virtual connection (SVC). This feature supports up to 16 PTOP connections. Only one VLAN and one VCI at a time can participate in a PTOP conﬁguration.

To conﬁgure PTOP parameters for an ATM service, you need to:

❑ Set the PTOP instance ID. ❑ Set the VCI value. ❑ Set the port service for binding an ATM port.

A VLAN with a valid IP address must exist prior to conﬁguring PTOP.

To configure PTOP:

Configuring Trunking

Trunking allows VLANs to be extended across multiple switches. Trunk ports encapsulate the bridged frames within a proprietary frame. The proprietary frame includes information required to reproduce the frame on the opposite end of the trunk and to maintain VLAN separation.

Without trunking service, different groups of VLANs must use two separate virtual circuits (VCs) across an ATM interface. With trunking, different groups of VLANs can share the same ATM VC, as shown in Figure 1-3.

Chapter 2

ATM Commands

This chapter contains the ATM command set for the FORMULA 8200 with ATM uplink. Each command is explained, and any applicable arguments and related commands are shown.

How Commands are Organized

FORMULA 8200 switch commands are arranged in a hierarchy of menus. The main menu contains a list of commands. Many of these commands, in turn, have commands or submenus under them.

To display the main menu, type display appears:

== MAIN MENU == ? ALIAS ALLCMD [ATM] [BOOT] [CONSOLE] [ELOG] [ETHERNET] EXIT [FDDI] [FILE] [INET] LOOKUP [MODE] [PORTSERV] REBOOT [SNMP] [SYSTEM] [TFTP] TOP UP [VBRIDGE] [VLAN] [TRACE] / >

? at the prompt. The following

2-1

Entering Commands

Enter commands by typing selections from each successive menu, then pressing the Enter key. You can also enter the entire command at the prompt or you can use an alias; both methods are described in the section, Command Formats.

Use of Square

Brackets [ ]

Use of Angle

Brackets <>

Some commands in the main menu have square brackets around them to indicate that the command requires additional parameters. When you enter one of these commands, a submenu appears that lists the available parameters.

Note

Do not enter the brackets when you enter the command.

This guide sometimes directs you to enter a command with a variable that is speciﬁc to your environment, such as IP or ATM addresses. The variables you must supply are enclosed in angle brackets.

For example, to conﬁgure a gateway address, enter:

/INET/CONFIG/ROUTE/ADD <default router address>

where <default router address> can be in the format,

123.123.123.123.

Note

Do not enter the brackets when you enter the command.

2-2

Command

Formats

The software allows you to enter commands in three ways:

❑ By using the complete command ❑ By using a shortcut ❑ By using an alias

Separating Command Words

When you enter any command, separat e the command words with a slash (/). For example:

/ATM/SHOW/CIP

You may also separate commands with spaces.

AT-8202 ATM Uplink User’s Guide

Shortcuts

Use a shortcut by typing the ﬁrst few characters needed to distinguish the command from others that start with the same letters, such as:

/AT/SH/CIP

The shortcut works unless your shortened version is ambiguous, which results in an error message.

Aliases

An alias is an abbreviated command that can be accessed from anywhere in the command line interface. For example, the following alias is equivalent to the

ATM/SHOW/CIP command:

vcip

Aliases are listed with each command description throughout the rest of this chapter.

Moving

AAL (ATM adaptation layer)

Asynchronous A method of transmission in which the time intervals between

ATM layer The la y er in the ATM model above the physical layer responsible f or:

CIP (classical IP) RFC 1577 speciﬁes how to carry IP datagrams over the ATM network.

The layer in the ATM model that provides the protocol between packet services and any ATM cell-oriented switching devices. The services primarily consist of segmentation and reassembly of data into multiple 48-byte cells.

characters are not required to be equal and signals are sourced from independent clocks with different frequencies and phase relationships. Start and stop bits are added to coordinate character transfer.

cell multiplexing; virtual path identiﬁer and virtual channel identiﬁer translation; cell header generation and extraction; and generic ﬂow control.

It speciﬁes the format of the ATM ARP requests and replies over the ATM AAL5 layer. It also deﬁnes the role and the protocol operation of the ATM ARP server, and the use of ATM ARP to resolve IP addresses from ATM addresses and ATM VCI values.

RFC 1483 allows the multiplexing of multiple families of PDUs over the same VCI, and the protocol is identiﬁed by preﬁxing the PDU by

ATM Acronyms and Terms

an IEEE 802.2 LLC header (called LLC encapsulation). Using CIP, you can conﬁgure hosts and routers within a closed logical IP subnet (LIS) with the same IP network/subnet number and address mask, and they communicate with other members of the same LIS over the ATM network.

Hosts of different IP subnets must communicate via an IP router, even though they can communicate via a direct VC.

ELAN (emulated LAN) Following the ATM Forum sub-working group LAN emulation

speciﬁcation, emulated LANs make connection-oriented ATM networks look like connectionless local area networks.

End point On an ATM network, an end station, server, or internetworking

device connected to the network. End points use either a user-tonetwork interface (UNI) for end stations or servers, or a network-tonetwork interface (NNI) for switch-to-switch connections.

IISP (interim interswitch signaling protocol)

ILMI (interim local management interface

A standardized signaling protocol to enable switched virtual circuits (SVCs) between switches in a private ATM network using static routes. Based on UNI 3.1 with optional support for UNI 3.0.

Integrated Local Managment Interface: An ATM Forum deﬁned interim speciﬁcation for network management functions between an end user and a public or private network and between a public network and a private network. This is based on a limited subset of SNMP capabilities.

LANE (LAN emulation) The method used by switching equipment to emulate the

characteristics of shared-media LANs, standardized by the ATM Forum to allow transparent operation of existing LANs and protocols across ATM. Facilitates the operation of broadcastoriented, connectionless networks and employes a server to resolve addresses between Ethernet and ATM systems. Allows for multicast services for supporting broadcast trafﬁc when needed and MAC driver interfaces on A TM stations supporting existing protocols such as IP, APPN, NetBIOS, and IPX.

LEC (LAN emulation client)

One of the components of LAN emulation, the LEC is an Ethernet port in a virtual LAN that has its own ATM address.

A-2

In LANE, ARP is used to translate and map the MAC addresses to ATM addresses. When an end station sends a MAC frame to an LEC, the LEC ﬁnds the ATM address of the destination with the help of the LAN emulation server (LES) and sets up an ATM virtual connection to the destination using SVC. The MAC trafﬁc is then sent as an ALL5 PDU with an LLC encapsulation ov er the established virtual connection.

LECS (LAN emulation conﬁguration server)

One of the components of LAN emulation, it is the service that maintains tables of virtual addresses. A given LEC can query this database for the address of the LAN emulation server (LES) with which the LEC needs to register.

LES (LAN emulation server)

MTU (maximum transmission unit)

NNI (network-tonetwork interface)

One of the components of LAN emulation, this is the service that resolves MAC and ATM address mappings for LAN emulation clients.

The largest possible unit of data that can be transmitted on a given physical medium using a given protocol.

An interface connecting private or public switches. A private NNI is between two private network switches within a building. A public NNI is between two public switching devices that create a WAN. The NNI speciﬁcation can be applied in both switch-to-switch and network-to-network situations.

PVC (permanent virtual circuit)

A dedicated connection between DTE devices conﬁgured manually to be used for a single purpose. This is comparable to a leased line between communicating devices.

PTOP (point-to-point) A communication link between two end objects or computer

systems in a network of computers. A PTOP connection link or type requires a set up between two or

more parties before end systems can communicate with each other.

RIP (routing information protocol)

A distance-vector protocol in the IP suite (used by IP and IPX network-layer protocols) that enables routers in the same autonomous system to exchange routing information by means of periodic updates. For RIP, the best path to a destination is the path with the fewest hops. RIP computes the distance as a metric, usually the number of hops from the network of origin to the destination.

SVC (switched virtual circuit)

UNI (user-to-network interface)

On-demand connection between ATM or Frame Relay source and destination that lasts only for the duration of the transmission.

Generic term to indicate interfaces to both public or private Frame Relay or ATM networks. Typically end point devices such as client workstations, client servers, or ATM routers. The current UNI speciﬁcation describes the signaling protocols that let users set up connections between ATM devices in customers’ equipment or public carrier equipment. The UNI speciﬁcation includes support for SVCs.

VC (virtual circuit) A network service that provides connection-oriented service

regardless of underlying network structure.

VC (virtual channel) A concept used to describe unidirectional transport of ATM cells

associated by a common unique identiﬁer value.

A-3

ATM Acronyms and Terms

VCC (virtual channel connection)

VCI (virtual channel identiﬁer)

The link set up between any source and destination in the ATM network.

Address or label contained in the ATM cell header to designate the virtual channel within the virtual path on the physical ATM link.
