ATM Connection Setup Screen Fields

The ATM Connection Setup screen allows the user to view the current
configured virtual connections, (PVCs and SVCs) on the HSIM-A6DP.
This screen also allows the user to access the Add/Delete Entry screen,
which is used to create, modify, or delete PVCs.

The following list explains each of the ATM Connection Setup screen
fields:

ATM Port Current Connections (Read-Only)

This field displays the number of current connections on the
HSIM-A6DP.

IF (Read-Only)

This field represents the virtual MIB-II interface that this Virtual Channel
(VC) was created on. This field can represent both Switched Virtual
Channels (SVCs), and Permanent Virtual Channels (PVCs).

PORT (Read-Only)

This field displays the port (APIM) on which the PVC or SVC resides.

VPI (Read-Only)

This field displays the Virtual Path Identifier of the connection. This field
reads 0 or 1.

VCI (Read-Only)

This field displays the Virtual Channel Identifier of the connection. This
field should read between 1 and 1020.

NOTE

The first two connections shown in

Figure 3-4

(with VPI, VCI

values of 0, 5 and 0,16 respectively) represent ILMI and UNI.
These two connections, even if they are disabled in the
Signalling screen (

Section 3.15

), will always display on the

ATM Connection Setup screen.
