Information About the 4-Port ATM ISE Line Card

The 4-Port ATM ISE line cards, which deliver line rate OC-12c/STM-4c or OC-3c/STM-1 bandwidth,

provide enhanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 capabilities for high-speed customer aggregation, backbone

connectivity, and peering solutions. These cards perform traffic shaping and per-virtual circuit (VC)

queueing, and support per-VC Modified Deficit Round Robin (MDRR) with per-VC low latency

queueing (LLQ). They also support Any Transport over MPLS (AToM), enhanced traffic policing, and

the ability to configure both AToM VCs and terminated VCs on a single port.

MDRR is implemented on a per-VC basis with up to eight queues per VC, where one of the queues is a

low latency queue (LLQ). Both per-VC Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) and per-VC MDRR

are performed in the hardware.

The 4-Port OC-12c/STM-4c ATM ISE line card provides the Cisco 12000 Series Router with four

622-Mbps ATM interfaces. The 4-Port OC-3c/STM-1 ATM ISE line card provides four 155-Mbps ATM

interfaces. The cards communicate with the Cisco 12000 Series Router switch fabric.

How to Perform a Basic Configuration of the 4-Port ATM ISE Line

Card

The 4-port ATM ISE line cards provide the ability to configure Layer 2 AToM VCs as well as Layer 3

terminated VCs. On any individual ATM interface, you can configure both AToM VCs and terminated

VCs as required. The configurations of these are discussed in subsequent sections in this document. This

section provides basic ATM interface configuration information and discusses those features that are

applicable to both AToM VCs and terminated VCs.

Configuring ATM interfaces and virtual circuits is described in the following sections:

•Configuring an ATM Interface, page 5

•Configuring UNI and NNI Cell Support, page 7

•Troubleshooting Tips, page 7

Configuring an ATM Interface

Use the show running-config command to display current port configuration information. On power up,

the interface on a new 4-Port ATM ISE line card is shut down. To enable the interface, you must enter a

no shutdown command in configuration mode.

Default Interface Configuration

When the 4-Port ATM ISE line card is enabled (taken out of shutdown) with no additional configuration

commands applied, the default interface configuration file parameters, described in Table 3, are used.

Configuration Basics

After you verify that the new 4-Port ATM ISE line card is installed correctly, use the configure command

to configure the new interface. Be prepared with the information that you will need, such as the interface

IP address.

The Cisco 12000 Series Router identifies an interface address by its line card slot number and port

number, in the format slot/port. Because each 4-Port ATM ISE line card contains four ATM interfaces,

the port numbers are 0 to 3. For example, the slot/port address of an ATM interface on a 4-Port ATM ISE

line card installed in line card slot 2 is 2/0 to 2/3.

Use the following procedure to create a basic configuration, including enabling an interface and

specifying IP routing. You might also need to enter other configuration subcommands, depending on the

requirements for your system configuration.

(For descriptions of configuration subcommands and the configuration options available, refer to the

appropriate software publications in the “Related Documents” section on page 91.)

How to Configure Layer 3 Terminated VCs on the 4-Port ATM ISE Line Card

Cisco IOS Release 12.0(27)S

How to Configure Layer 3 Terminated VCs on the 4-Port ATM ISE

Line Card

The following configuration tasks are described in this section:

•Configuring Layer 3 Terminated Virtual Circuits, page 8

•Configuring ATM Shaping on Terminated VCs, page 9

•Configuring OAM Management on Terminated VCs, page 11

•Configuring Quality of Service on Terminated VCs, page 14

•Configuring and Managing VC Bundles, page 28

•Configuring Bridged PVCs, page 35

Configuring Layer 3 Terminated Virtual Circuits

A virtual circuit (VC) is a point-to-point connection between two ATM devices. A VC is established for

each ATM end node with which the router communicates. The characteristics of the VC are established

when it is created and include the following for the 4-Port ATM ISE line cards:

•Quality of service (QoS)

•ATM adaptation layer (AAL) mode

•Encapsulation type (LLC/SNAP, IP MUX, and NLPID)

•Peak and average transmission rates

Permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) configured on the router remain active until the circuit is removed

from the configuration. All virtual circuit characteristics apply to PVCs. When a PVC is configured, all

configuration options are passed to the 4-Port ATM ISE line card. These PVCs are written to the

nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM) as part of the configuration and are used when the Cisco IOS image is

reloaded.

When you create a PVC, you create a virtual circuit descriptor (VCD) and attach it to the VPI and VCI.

The VCD tells the card which VPI/VCI to use for a particular packet. The 4-Port ATM ISE line card

requires this feature to manage the packets for transmission. The number chosen for the VCD is

independent of the VPI/VCI used.

A permanent virtual path (PVP) is like a bundle of VCs, transporting all cells with a common VPI, rather

than a specific VPI and VCI.

PVCs are created and configured using the pvc command in interface configuration mode. PVPs are

created and configured using the atm pvp command in interface configuration mode.

The syntax of the pvc command is as follows:

pvc [name] vpi/vci

Command Purpose

Router# show atm interface atm slot/port Displays current ATM-specification information about the 4-Port ATM ISE

line card interface.

Router# show atm traffic Displays current ATM statistics.

Software Configuration of ATM ISE Line Cards for Cisco 12000 Series Routers

How to Configure Layer 3 Terminated VCs on the 4-Port ATM ISE Line Card

Cisco IOS Release 12.0(27)S

The syntax of the atm pvp command is:

atm pvp vpi

vpi is the ATM network VPI to use for this virtual circuit, in the range of 0 to 255 for UNI or 0 to 4095

for NNI; vci is the ATM network VCI to use for this virtual circuit, in the range of 0 to 655,535.

Troubleshooting Tips

To display information about the connected virtual circuits, use the following commands:

Configuring ATM Shaping on Terminated VCs

The 4-Port ATM ISE line cards support IP traffic shaping on terminated VCs. The following ATM

shaping options are available:

•Constant bit rate (CBR)—Supports real-time applications that request a static amount of bandwidth

that is continuously available for the duration of the connection. (See Step 5.)

•Real-time variable bit rate (VBR-rt)—Supports real-time applications that have bursty transmission

characteristics. (See Step 6.)

•Non-real-time variable bit rate (VBR-nrt)—Supports non-real-time applications with bursty

transmission characteristics that tolerate high cell delay, but require low cell loss. (See Step 7.)

•Unspecified bit rate (UBR)—Supports non-real-time applications that tolerate both high cell delay

and cell loss on the network. There are no network service-level guarantees for the UBR service

category, and therefore it is a best-effort service. (See Step 8.)

To configure ATM shaping, perform the shaping commands in PVC mode. You should use only one of

the shaping commands in Step 5 through Step 8, depending on the type of shaping to be configured.

Restrictions

CDVT

When traffic shaping is configured on a VC, the cell delay variation (CDV) is set for the VC. This value

will change according to the shaping class defined. The cell delay variation tolerance (CDVT) values are

shown in Table 4.

Command Purpose

Router# show atm pvc Displays current ATM PVC information.

Router# show atm vc Displays current ATM VC information.

Table 4 CDVT per Traffic Class for Traffic Shaping

Traffic Class OC-12c/STM-4c Line Card OC-3c/STM-1 Line Card

CBR 70 μsec 70 μsec

UBR 185 μsec 305 μsec

VBR-RT 70 μsec 70 μsec

VBR-NRT 185 μsec 305 μsec

Software Configuration of ATM ISE Line Cards for Cisco 12000 Series Routers

How to Configure Layer 3 Terminated VCs on the 4-Port ATM ISE Line Card

Cisco IOS Release 12.0(27)S

Note For VBR connections in which the sustainable cell rate (SCR) is not equal to the PCR value, the CDVT

is significantly lower.

Decreased VC Throughput

If you configure a VC on a 4-Port OC-12/STM-4 ATM ISE interface with a peak cell rate (PCR) or

sustainable cell rate (SCR) greater than OC-6 (using the ubr, vbr-nrt, vbr-rt, or cbr commands), and

attach a traffic policy with MDRR (configured using the bandwidth command) to the interface for

specified traffic classes, when traffic on the interface from the specified classes is equal to or greater than

the configured PCR or SCR values, frequent queueing and dequeueing changes occur between the

MDRR queues and may cause a decreased VC throughput.

Decreased throughput is more likely to occur when the traffic consist of small packets and when a high

amount of traffic is sent toward the high-priority queue. Such traffic will increase significantly the

frequency of switches between queues, which may cause the nonpriority queues to lose their bandwidth.

Therefore, when configuring a VC to more than OC-6, it is recommended to limit the high priority traffic

using the police command.

SUMMARY STEPS

Use either Step 5, Step 6, Step 7 or Step 8 depending on the desired shaping.
