3. Use the add spvcaddress command on the target switch to specify the target port and ATM address.
SmartSwitch # add spvcaddress
PortNumber() : 6b3 — Port on target switch
AtmAddress() : 22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22
Added SPVC Address successfully.
SmartSwitch #
Note Both soft PVCs and Soft PVPs use the add spvcaddress command to specify the
target switch’s target ATM address. There is no separate “ add spvpaddress ”
command.
4. Use the show spvcaddress command to see the soft PVP port and ATM address on the target switch:
SmartSwitch # show spvcaddress
PortNumber(ALL) :
TargetAddress() :
Port SPVC Target Address

5. On the source switch, use the add trafficdescriptor command to create traffic descriptors for the
forward and reverse directions of the connection (See Section 5.1.1for information about traffic
descriptors).
6. On the source switch, use the add spvp command to create the soft PVP connection between the two
switches:
SmartSwitch # add spvp
PortNumber() : 7a1 — Port on source switch
SourceVpi(0) : 3
DestinationSelectType(REQUIRED) : — See note below
DestinationVPI(0) : 3 — We use VPI= 3
TargetAddress() : 22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22
TransmitTrafficDescriptorIndex() : 3
ReceiveTrafficDescriptorIndex() : 3

RetryThreshold(1) :
SmartSwitch #
Note The DestinationSelectType determines which vpi is used on the target switch.
The possible settings are REQUIRED and ANY . If DestinationSelectType is set to
REQUIRED , the specified target vpi is set at the target switch. If ANY is specified, the
soft PVP uses the first available vpi it finds on the target switch. If ANY is specified,
enter the show spvptraget command on the target switch to determine the vpi
used.
