Oh yeah, since I have allocated zero bits to VPI and 12 bits to VCI the PVC
must be 0/xxx. If you change the number of VPI bits you can have a
"numbered" VPI.
I use 204 to indicate a VCI from port 2 to port 4 and 402 for VCI from port
4 to port 2 to make things easy to remember, therefore I have to have 12
bits in VCI so I can only have zero bits allocated for VPI.
A reminder that the flash is only good for about 9000 writes so don't keep
writing the config unless you really have something to write. Writing and
reloading won't fix anything anyway, this thing is so simple that it
doesn't seem to have memory leaks.
PVC autodiscovery does not work (at least for me). AFAICT this requires UNI
3.1 and the LS100 only supports 3.0. Do some debugs and you will see the
error messages.
One last tip, the interface is a lot like the old Digital gear, each
commands has two instances. For example DELETE and CLEAR do the same thing,
one of them works on the running config, the other applies to both the
running config and the startup config. If you aren't careful you can
flurgle the whole system even after a reload when you didn't write. If you
only know the Cisco "way", you may not realise this.
Sigh. To be back in the days of DEC term servers........onwards to BGP
confedarations.....
