Curiosity plain and simple, no hot tip or anything like that. I saw a
sample config on CCO and wanted to configure it for real. The doc is at:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/121/13.html

I followed it to the letter on the routers (the difference being no 'atm
pvc 16 0 16 ilmi' on the routers). I remembered to add the static atm
routes for AA0000 and BB0000 to the lighstream as per the above doc, but no
had no luck at all making it work. Turning on ILMI was the only thing that
made it work. Perhaps I was missing 'no ilmi-enable' on the relevant
LS1010 interfaces, and this was the problem. Unfortunately, I don't have
access to the gear or I'd check it out.

Yes, my graphic is wrong. r14 is connected to atm0/1/0, as the LS1010
config shows.

Yes, ILMI is disabled by default, and in the sample config on CCO it is
also disabled.

Didn't save output from 'sh atm vc' unfortunately.
