SPVC
S
SPVCs (Soft Permanent Virtual Circuits) provide a PVC between the CPE and the line card, and
an SVC (Switched Virtual Circuit) between the line card and the destination ATM end system.
SVCs are virtual connections that are established through an ATM network using signaling (the
end-points are defined when the call is initiated and terminated at the end of the call). SPVCs,
then, enable ATM connection redundancy between the line card and the ATM end system.
You configure SPVCs from the
::spvc=>
prompt. From the
::root=>
prompt, type the
following command then press
to display the
::spvc=>
prompt:
