About the Passport 8672ATM Module
The Passport 8672ATM Module provides network transmission using ATM
technology. The Passport 8672ATM Module enables MAN/WAN/campus
connectivity for the Passport 8600 Routing Switch with the capability to
interconnect frame-switched networks using a backbone ATM network. The
module also provides existing ATM customers with the capability for connectivity
to the Passport 8600 Routing Switch. (For more information on ATM, refer to the
ATM Forum Web site at the http://www.atmforum.com URL.)
The Passport 8672ATM Module occupies a single slot in a Passport 8600 series
chassis. The module is a baseboard with room for two of the following optional
Media dependent adapters (MDAs):
•1-port OC-12c/STM-4: single-mode fiber (SMF) or multimode fiber (MMF)
using the Synchronous Optical Network (SONET/SDH) media
•4-port OC-3c/STM-1: SMF or MMF using SONET media
23
The Passport 8672ATM Module for the Passport 8000 series chassis can be used
as an edge device for WAN connectivity in the data center; it is used to connect
Passport 8600 to public or private ATM networks. You can also use the Passport
8672ATM Module in the wiring closet in inter-building connection technology in
campus networks where each building is supported by frame-switched networks.
Another network application of the Passport 8672ATM Module is a direct
connection between one Passport 8600 series switch with a Passport 8672ATM
Module in one building to an identical module in another Passport 8600 Series
switch at another building. You connect the switches with a dedicated fiber link or
with a SONET multiplex network. Each building may be individually supported
by either frame-switched or ATM technology.
You can use up to two Passport 8672ATM Modules in one Passport 8600 series
chassis.

Chapter 1 About the Passport 8672ATM Module25
ATM ELANs, and Ethernet VLANs
The Passport 8672ATM Module supports ATM Forum Emulated LANs (ELANs).
An ELAN extends an Ethernet VLAN, which is a broadcast domain, over an ATM
network.
In general, there is a one-to-one mapping between an ATM ELAN and an Ethernet
VLAN. An ATM ELAN never spans more than one ATM port because the
software considers each ATM port completely separate.
The Passport 8672ATM Module participates in ELANs as RFC 1483 PVCs. Only
Ethernet ELANs are supported on this module.
If you delete a VLAN, you delete 1483 ELANs associated with the VLAN.
Virtual network router
Virtual network router (VNR) refers to the routing functions between two ATM
virtual/emulated networks. You can use the Passport 8672ATM Module as an IPand IPX-optimized VNR.
Traffic shaping
The Passport 8672ATM Module supports traffic shaping, which is enabled or
disabled on a port-by-port basis. Where it is enabled, a single traffic rate is
enforced for those ports. The maximum available rate for traffic shaping does not
exceed the maximum rate for the slowest interface on the module. Traffic shaping
is disabled by default. Traffic shaping is performed at the port level and not at the
PVC level.
The module provides support for unspecified bit rate (UBR) and variable bit rate
(VBR), both real-time and non-real-time; it does not support available bit rate
(ABR) or constant bit rate (CBR). Traffic shaping per port is supported on all
permanent virtual circuits (PVCs).
Using the Passport 8672ATM Module
26Chapter 1 About the Passport 8672ATM Module
RFC 1483 Support
The system software on the Passport 8672ATM Module supports the
configuration of RFC 1483 LAN clients with multiprotocol encapsulation. RFC
1483 supports standards-based methods of encapsulation that enable connectivity
with third-party ATM devices. Multiprotocol encapsulation provides the
capability to set up PVCs between Centillion ATM virtual ports (VPorts) and
other clients based on LLC encapsulation. The current Centillion platform only
supports bridged variations of RFC 1483.
The Passport 8672ATM Module supports the following types of RFC 1483
ELANs:
•RFC 1483 bridged 802.3. The links can be set up within a single device or
with another switch. Multiple RFC 1483 links can be set up within one
ELAN. In all cases, the PVCs must be set up without loops; STP must be
disabled. Both LLC and NULL encapsulation are supported.
•RFC 1483 routed IP and IPX. An RFC 1483 routed VLAN always contains
only one PVC, corresponding to a point-to-point link between routers. The
ATM ELAN is bridged to a single Ethernet VLAN. The software adds and
removes the MAC header, as appropriate. When configuring an IP and IPX
routed circuit, the ATM port must be the only port assigned to the VLAN.
ATM ports do not support bridge/router (BROUTER) configurations.

The front panel of the Passport 8672ATM Module has an Online LED that
indicates whether or not the module has power applied and is initialized correctly.
When the Passport 8672ATM Module is first inserted into the chassis, the Online
LED turns amber until the board is recognized by the system and passes a
power-on self-test. If the module fails the self-test, the light is off. When the board
passes the self-test and goes online, the LED illuminates a solid green.

Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) is a connection-oriented, cell-based
technology that relays traffic across a network. ATM provides a cost-effective
way of transmitting voice, video, and data across a network at high speeds. It
offers topology-independent, resilient networking technology.
31
An ATM cell is a fixed-length packet of 53 bytes. It consists of a 5-byte header
containing address information and a fixed 48-byte information field. The
fixed-length cell size allows you to predict network delays.
The following terms and acronyms are frequently used with ATM information:
•ATM: Asynchronous transfer mode. ATM is a switched, connection-oriented,
fixed-length, cell-based transmission method specifically designed to run at
high data rates and to carry a complete range of user traffic, including voice,
data, and video. ATM uses dedicated media connections running in parallel,
allowing simultaneous multiple connections through a single switch device at
very high speeds.
•PVC: Permanent virtual circuit. Dedicated connection between devices that is
manually set up.
•SVC: Switched virtual circuit. On-demand connection between an ATM or
frame relay source and destination that lasts for the duration of the
transmission.
•VC: Virtual circuit. This is a network service that provides
connection-oriented service regardless of the underlying network structure.
•VP: Virtual path. A virtual path is a set of virtual channels between a common
source and destination. The virtual channels in a virtual path are logically
associated with a common identifier, the virtual path identifier.
•VPI: Virtual path identifier. Identifier contained in the ATM cell header to
designate the virtual path on the physical ATM link.
•VCI: Virtual circuit identifier. Address or label contained in the ATM cell
header to designate the virtual circuit within the virtual path on the physical
ATM l i n k
•ELAN: Emulated LAN. Following the ATM Forum specification, ELANs
make connection-oriented ATM networks look like connectionless LANs.
•UBR: Unspecified bit rate. UBR is an ATM service category that does not
specify traffic-related service guarantees. No numerical commitments are
made with respect to the cell loss ratio or to the cell transfer delay.
•VBR: Variable bit rate. VBR is an ATM Forum-defined service category that
supports variable bit rate data traffic with average and peak traffic parameters.
•PCR: Peak cell rate.The PCR, in cells/second, is the maximum cell rate.
•SCR: Sustainable cell rate. The SCR is an upper bound on the cell rate that is
long relative to that of the PCR. Enforcement of this bound by the Usage
Parameter Control allows the network to allocate sufficient resources, but less
than those for the PCR, to ensure that the specified cell loss ratio can be
achieved.
•MBS: Maximum burst size. The signaling method determines the MBS,
which is coded as a number of cells, that can be transmitted at peak rate and
still conform to the overall algorithm.
209195-A
Data transmission (also called cell switching) through the ATM network relies on
establishing logical connections between ATM devices. ATM is a
connection-oriented service, which means that an ATM device cannot transmit
information until it establishes a connection with a receiving device.
This section provides a brief listing of common Synchronous Optical Network
(SONET) terms. SONET is a medium for transmitting data that uses fiber optic
cables.
The following terms and acronyms are frequently used with SONET information:
•SONET: Synchronous Optical Network. SONET is a family of fiber optic
transmission rates that provides the flexibility to transport many digital
signals with different capacities. This ANSI standard provides for
transmission from OC-1 to OC-48 and greater.
•SDH: Synchronous Digital Hierarchy. SDH is a standard technology for
optical fiber-based synchronous data transmission. SDH is the international
equivalent of SONET.
•OC-3: Optical Carrier-level 3. OC-3 is an optical fiber transmission system at
155 Mb/s.
•OC-3c/STM-1: Optical Carrier-level 3 concatenation. OC-3c/STM-1 is an
optical fiber transmission system that carries STS-3c/STM-1 frame structures
at 155 Mb/s. Concatenation refers to the fact that there is only one logical data
stream (rather than supporting a channelized structure).
•OC-12: Optical Carrier-level 12. OC-12 is an optical fiber transmission
system at 622 Mb/s.
•OC-12c/STM-4: Optical Carrier-level 12 concatenation. OC-12c/STM-4 is an
optical fiber transmission system that carries STS-12c/STM-4 frame
structures at 622 Mb/s. Concatenation refers to the fact that there is only one
logical data stream (rather than supporting a channelized structure).
The following transmission rates are commonly used with SONET:
•OC-3c/STM-1: 155.52 Mb/s (and SDH/STM-1)
•OC-12c/STM-4: 622.08 Mb/s (and SDH/STM-4)
The SONET specification defines optical both as:
•Single-mode fiber (SMF)
•Multimode fiber (MMF)
Note: The estimated maximum transmission distance for OC-3c SMF is
20 kilometers (km); for OC-3c MMF is 2 km; for OC-12c SMF is 15 km;
for OC-12c MMF is 500 m.

Using the Passport 8672ATM Module
40Chapter 3 Installing the Passport 8672ATM Module
For information on configuring and managing the Passport 8672ATM Module,
refer to Chapter 4, “Managing the Passport 8672ATM Module with Device
Manager,” on page 47, to Chapter 5, “Managing the Passport 8672ATM Module
with the CLI,” on page 73, and to Chapter 6, “Configuring the Passport 8672ATM
Module,” on page 115.
Verifying installation
The Passport 8672ATM Module front panel has an Online LED that indicates
whether or not the module has power applied and is initialized correctly. For
information on online LEDs, see “Online LED” on page 28.
Note: You cannot configure the Passport 8672ATM Module until the
online LED on the module is steadily lit green and you have inserted at
least one MDA.
Initialization
When the Passport 8672ATM Module is installed into a Passport 8600 series
chassis, ensure that the Passport 8690SF module in the same chassis has a
PCMCIA card inserted and that the PCMCIA card contains the p80t3100.dld
image, which supports the Passport 8672ATM Module. For more information
about the PCMCIA slot and the Passport 8690SF module, refer to Using the Passport 8600 Modules.
The Passport 8690SF module retrieves the image file p80t3100.dld to download
to the Passport 8672ATM Module. First, the Passport 8690SF module searches the
host flash memory for the file, then the PCMCIA card. The Passport 8690SF
module downloads the image file to the Passport 8672ATM Module and identifies
which MDAs are installed. The screen displays following message:
Using image = /slot/p80t3100.dld for ATM card download.
ATM card: Slot 4 MDA [OC-12c MM] [Quad OC-3c MM] Ver=2.2
If the image file is not found in either the flash memory or the PCMCIA, the
system stops and the screen displays an error message such as:

After the image loads onto the Passport 8672ATM Module, it performs a series of
self-diagnostic tests. If the module fails the diagnostics, the screen displays the
following message:
Fatal bring up error on ATM card in slot <number>.
If you see this message, contact a service representative. For information on
contacting service representatives, refer to “How to get help” on page 22.
When the image successfully loads onto the Passport 8672ATM Module, the
screen displays the following message:
ATM card in slot <number> is online.
The Passport 8690SF module can download the image to two Passport 8672ATM
Modules in the same Passport 8600 series chassis simultaneously.
Note: If you accidentally delete the image file, reset the card and
redownload the file. For information on how to reset the card, see
“Resetting the module” on page 54.
If you have one MDA installed, you can proceed to configure the Passport
8672ATM Module.
Note: You must save your configuration (using either the CLI or Device
Manager) to preserve the configuration changes you made to the
Passport 8672ATM Module across reboots.
MDA insertion and configuration
Once you insert an MDA, you must complete some basic configuration tasks for
the Passport 8672ATM Module to begin switching operations as soon as it
completes initialization. For information on installing MDAs, refer to Installing
the Passport 8672ATM Module MDAs.
Using the Passport 8672ATM Module
44Chapter 3 Installing the Passport 8672ATM Module
To verify that the Passport 8672ATM Module is ready to receive and transmit
traffic, check the LEDs on the module and the MDA. Once you enable the ports
using the CLI or Device Manager, the online LED on the module lights steady
green, and the module is ready. See “Online LED” on page 28 and “MDA LEDs”
on page 29.
For information on enabling ports, refer to “Enabling or disabling a port” on
page 58.
You configure and manage the Passport 8600 series switch operation for your
network using the command line interface (CLI) or SNMP-based network
management software, such as Device Manager. For information on configuring
and managing the Passport 8672ATM Module, refer to Chapter 4, “Managing the
Passport 8672ATM Module with Device Manager,” on page 47, to Chapter 5, “Managing the Passport 8672ATM Module with the CLI,” on page 73, and to
Chapter 6, “Configuring the Passport 8672ATM Module,” on page 115.
Factory default settings for the Passport 8672ATM Module are shown in
Appendix B, “Factory defaults,” on page 145.
Replacing a module
You can hot-swap Passport 8672ATM Modules as long as the module you are
inserting has the same MDAs installed as the module you are replacing. In this
case, the system saves the previous configurations. If you hot-swap the module
with a module that has different MDAs installed, you must reconfigure the
module.
If you are hot-swapping modules, read the following section for information about
how the routing switch recognizes replacement modules and how to avoid
potential problems.
Warning: The Passport 8672ATM Module itself is hot-swappable; the
MDAs necessary to pass traffic on the module are not hot-swappable.
209195-A
Chapter 3 Installing the Passport 8672ATM Module45
Starting the system after a module replacement
After you a replace a module on the chassis, you can expect the following results:
•In a running system, when you replace an I/O module with a module of the
same type, the system restores the configuration of all the ports.
•When you replace a module with one of a different type, the system discards
the configuration of the old ports, and the new ports are added to either the
default VLAN or a null VLAN, depending on the operating mode of the
switch.
•When you save the configuration in nonvolatile random access memory
(NVRAM), turn off the switch, replace a module with a different module
type, and turn the system on again, the system discards the configuration of
the old ports, and adds new ports to either the default VLAN or an unassigned
VLAN, depending on the operating mode of the switch.
Starting the system with an empty slot
When you save the configuration in NVRAM, shut down the system, remove a
module, turn on the chassis with that slot empty, and then populate the slot with a
module of the same type as the one previously there, the system is not able to
restore the original configuration.

Chapter 4
Managing the Passport 8672ATM Module with
Device Manager
Two management tools enable you to manage your Passport 8672ATM Module:
Device Manager and the command line interface (CLI). You can also use the
embedded Web-based management feature to monitor the 8672ATM Module.
This chapter contains information on these topics:
•“Port numbering,” next
•“Device Manager” on page 48
Refer to Chapter 5, “Managing the Passport 8672ATM Module with the CLI” for
information about managing your Passport 8672ATM Module with the CLI and
monitoring the module with the Web-based management features.
47
Port numbering
You must install an MDA into the Passport 8672ATM Module in order to have
connectivity. The module contains two slots for MDAs, and you can mix and
match among the following MDAs, which are available in both SMF and MMF:
•1-port OC-12c/STM-4
•4-port OC-3c/STM-1
Using the Passport 8672ATM Module
48Chapter 4 Managing the Passport 8672ATM Module with Device Manager
The management systems identify an interface by its slot number (in the Passport
8600 series chassis) and its port number, using the syntax slot number/port
number (s/p). The Passport 8672ATM Module can contain up to eight ports when
two 4-port MDAs are inserted. Port numbers 1 to 4 are reserved for the MDA in
the left slot regardless of the actual physical number of ports. Port numbers 5 to 8
apply to the MDA in the right slot regardless of the actual physical number of
ports.
For example, a Passport 8672ATM Module in the third slot of the Passport 8600
series chassis with an OC-12c/STM-4 MDA in the left slot and an OC-3c/STM-1
MDA in the right slot has the following port numbers for management and
configuration:
•3/1: OC-12c
•3/5: OC-3c/STM-1, left port
•3/6: OC-3c/STM-1, port second from left
•3/7: OC-3c/STM-1, port second from right
•3/8: OC-3c/STM-1, right port
As another example of port numbering, a Passport 8672ATM Module in the
second slot of the chassis with two OC-12c/STM-4 MDAs installed has the
following port numbers:
•2/1: OC-12c/STM-4, left
•2/5: OC-12c/STM-4, right
A Passport 8672ATM Module with two OC-3c/STM-1 MDAs installed has ports
numbered consecutively 1 through 8, from left to right.
Device Manager
Passport Device Manager is an SNMP-based graphical user interface tool
designed to manage single devices. In order to use Device Manager, you must
have network connectivity to a management station running Device Manager on
one of the supported platforms.

The 1483 ELAN statistics commands allow you to collect ELAN statistics for an
ATM port. The commands are:
The collection of ELAN statistics is disabled by default to avoid slowing data
forwarding performance. ELAN statistics should be disabled after collection.
Enabling or disabling the collection of ELAN statistics does not clear the ELAN
statistics counters. This allows the ELAN statistics to be reviewed after the feature
is disabled.
