Setting Up PVC Connections Switch Administration
4.5.1 Point-to-Point PVCs
The procedure for setting up a PVC between two end nodes through the SmartCell 6A000 consists of specifying the
ports and the virtual path and virtual channel identifiers (VPI and VCI).
1. Use add pvc to create the PVC; specify the ports through which the connection is established and
the VPI/VCI pair to use with each port.
SmartCell ZX # add pvc
ConnType(PTP) :
LowPort(A1) : c1
LowVPI(0) :
LowVCI(33) : 100
HighPort(A1) : b2
HighVPI(0) :
HighVCI(34) : 100

The example above creates a PVC between ports C1 and B2 with VPI/VCI = 0/100.
2. Plug the end nodes into the specified SmartCell 6A000 ports (C1 and B2).
3. Configure each end node with the proper IP address, subnet mask, and VPI/VCI pair = 0/100.
The end nodes can communicate with each other through the point-to-point PVC connection.
Connecting to Local Client Through Point-to-Point PVC
All PVC connections to SmartCell 6A000 local clients use B4 (the CPU port) as the HighPort.
Follow these instructions to connect an end node to a SmartCell 6A000 local client through a point-to-point PVC.
1. Use add pvc to create the PVC.
