5-4 SmartSwitch ATM User GuidePVC Connections Virtual Ports and Static Connections5. Connect the workstations to their respective ports.6. Configure the workstations for the same subnet and VPCI/VCI pair = 0/101.The broadcasting workstation on port 7a1 can send traffic to the receiving workstations on ports 7a2, 7a3, and 7a4.5.1.3 Connecting to Local Switch Client Through a PVCAll PVC connections to an ATM SmartSwitch local client use the CPU port. On a SmartSwitch 6500, this port is either7B4 or 8B4 depending on the slot in which the master TSM/CPU module resides. Because of the SmartSwitch 6500’sredundancy capability, the CPU port should always be designated as CPU. Using CPU assures that the PVC connects tothe active CPU in the event of fail-over. On all other SmartSwitch ATM switches (2500, 6A000, or 9A100), the CPUport is B4, however, as with the SmartSwitch 6500, the value CPU can also be used.Follow these instructions to connect an end node to an ATM SmartSwitch’s local client through a point-to-point PVC.1. Use add pvc to create the PVC.SmartSwitch # add pvcConnType(PTP) :Port-1-Number() : 7a1Port-1-VPCI() : 0Port-1-VCI() : 100Port-2-Number() : cpu — The CPU portPort-2-VPCI() : 0Port-2-VCI() : 101Port1-to-Port2TrafficDescriptorIndex() : 2Port2-to-Port1TrafficDescriptorIndex() : 2SmartSwitch #2.

Connect the end node to port 7a1 of the ATM SmartSwitch.
