In the

Channel Encap

box, select the encapsulation mode. (For

TLS

service type, select

llc-8023

or

vc-mux-8023

. For

PPP

service type, select

LC-PPP

or

VC-MUX-PPP

. For

RAMP1483

proprietary protocol service type, select

VC-MUX-RAMP

.)

This setting must match the encapsulation protocol used at the remote end. The default is

llc-8023

encapsulation. The llc-8023 (Logical Link Control) encapsulation is supported by

most ATM devices but has more overhead than vc-mux encapsulation. Use llc-8023 only
if the remote device that is connected to the frame channel card port uses RFC1483
Ethernet bridging (it will not work with token ring networks). Vc-mux-8023 does not use
an encapsulation header and works with any network protocol. Both encapsulation modes
are from ietf RFC1483 Multiprotocol Encapsulation over ATM Adaptation Layer 5.
