ATM Features for the LightStream Switch

Transcription

1 CHAPTER 6 ATM Features for the LightStream Switch This chapter provides procedures for using CiscoView to perform Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) configuration on LightStream switches. For ATM LANE configuration information for Catalyst switches, refer to Chapter 5, ATM LANE Configuration for Catalyst Switches. ATM features for the LightStream switches are described in the following sections, which contain a variety of features used for ATM configuration (Figure 6-1): Managing ATM Device Features Managing ATM Port Features Figure 6-1 ATM Features ATM Features for the LightStream Switch 6-1

2 Managing ATM Device Features The ATM device features allow access to the following features: Resource Management (Global) ATM OAM ATM RMON ATM Accounting ATM Signaling (Global) ATM Signaling Diagnosis PNNI (Global) ILMI (Global) To invoke the ATM Feature application, select ATM Features from the menu bar. Within each ATM device feature, change the category to access different management features. To display the information for any category, select the appropriate category from the pulldown menu by the side of the CATEGORY label. Note Where windows display optional fields, you can either enter a value or leave the field blank so the device automatically generates the value. Note For additional information regarding the fields within the windows, click Help to access the CiscoView Help screens. 6-2 Using CiscoView with Catalyst and LightStream Switches

3 Resource Management (Global) The Resource Management (Global) category allows you to provide management of critical resources in an ATM network, such as buffer space and trunk bandwidth. When the Resource Management (Global) category is selected, the default window displayed is the ATM RM Switch Configuration window. Subcategories available including the following: ATM RM Switch Configuration ATM RM Queue ATM RM Default UNI3 QoS ATM Traffic Descriptor ATM RM Threshold Group ATM RM Threshold Group Service ATM RM Service Class ATM RM Service Class on Interface ATM RM Switch Configuration If you select the ATM RM Switch Configuration category, the ATM RM Switch Configuration window opens. The ATM RM Switch Configuration window (Figure 6-2) allows you to display or modify available bit rate (ABR) and unspecified bit rate (UBR) configuration information. To modify the current configuration, edit the field(s) and click Modify to commit the modification. If an invalid value is entered, an error message is displayed. (See Hints for Modifying the ATM RM Switch Configuration for more information.) ATM Features for the LightStream Switch 6-3

4 Figure 6-2 ATM RM Switch Configuration Hints for Modifying the ATM RM Switch Configuration When modifying the fields, consider the following: When setting the Set the Over-Subscription Factor field, in general, the larger the Over- Subscription Factor value, the larger the queue size. When setting the ABR Mode field, consider the following: relative rate sets the congestion notification to be received from outside the switch. EFCI sets the congestion notification in the headers of forward cells, which are turned around at the destination end system and sent back to the source end system. both sets the congestion notification to both the relative rate and EFCI congestion notification types for ABR connections. The default value is 1% for the Set the Sustained Cell Rate Margin Factor field. 6-4 Using CiscoView with Catalyst and LightStream Switches
