John,
Doing PVCs is not CLIP. CLIP uses SVCs. You will need to define two
PVCs though - One for UNI signalling(qsaal) and one for ILMI NSAP
registration(ilmi). You can do pure PVCs without a LS1010, but you need one
to do CLIP or LANE to gain the SVC functionality. The ESI addresses you see
are arbitrary but unique numbers(ex. - R1 use something like
1111.1111.1111.00 and R2 use 2222.2222.2222.00). The interface for a LS1010
or LS1010 blade uses IOS so it looks just like a router. You access a
LS1010 blade from a 5500 by doing a show module and typing "session x" where
x=module of the LS1010. This also holds true for things like RSMs and
MFSCs. Heres a CLIP sample with some notes to work from:
Int ATM x/x
Atm pvc 1 0 5 qsaal <--turns on UNI 3.x signalling
Atm pvc 2 0 16 ilmi <--turns on ILMI
Shut/no shut <--doing this on the interfaces forces a restart of ilmi and
signalling. Give it a minute.
Show atm ilmi-status <-- cut the prefix(highlight/edit/cut) The prefix is
everything up to the ESI - The first
13 bytes.
Int ATM x/x
Atm esi-address 1111.1111.1111.00 <--remember to make unique per client and
server
Atm arp-server self <-- put on arp server. It doesn't matter which router is
the arp server
Atm arp-server nsap xx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.1111.1111.1111.00 - prefix
from cut <--Put on CLIP
clients. This assumes that R1
is the arp server since the esi
used is 1111.1111.1111.00
Ip address x.x.x.x y.y.y.y <--put each client in the same subnet.
Hope this helps,
JOE

Subject: ATM PVC's. Lightstream Switches
Oaky, some basic ATM questions that I hope some of you can clear up.
I've configured router ATM interfaces using map lists pointing to
another IP device. PVC's. Is the considred CLIP. I'm thinking no, cause I
saw you needed to configure an ARP server for CLIP. In frame relay, the
switch needs to know how to route DCLI, like when you set up a router as a
Frame Switch. Do you need to set up the LightStream module the same way if
you use it to connect two or more ATM devices?
What is the Light Stream interface look like. How do you acces a Light
Stream module in a 5000? NASP addressing. Do you get one automatically from
the switch if you use ILIMI? I see in some configs hard coded ESI
assignments.
I keep reading document after document, including Caslow, but can't seem
to cleat up the confusion!
