Yes, you are correct. You do not need to specify the esi address or the ilmi
PVC if you are only using PVCs for connectivity. In fact since the router
will generate its own esi if you do not specify one, the only time I can see
much advantage to specifying it is if you are using SVCs and you want to
make you NSAP-address-to-IP-address mapping a little easier.

You also might want to include an IP mapping under each PVC, such as:

 pvc router2 100/200
  protocol ip 220.220.220.1 broadcast
 !
 pvc router3 200/300
  protocol ip 220.220.220.25 broadcast
 !
 pvc router4 200/400
  protocol ip 220.220.220.203 broadcast

Subject: ATM PVCs

The practice lab says: 4 ATM routers are connected via ATM cloud. config ATM
PVC so that IP & IPX connectivity is established. I'm looking at somebody's
config who did this lab. But I think the config has some extra line that an
not needed. Please comment:

interface ATM3/0
 ip address 220.220.220.2 255.255.255.0
 no ip directed-broadcast
 atm esi-address 111111111111.03 <- This should not be requried for
PVC (it is SVC requirement)
 atm ilmi-keepalive
 pvc mgt 0/16 ilmi <- Not sure why you'd type this in for PVC
 !
 pvc router2 100/200
  broadcast
 !
 pvc router3 200/300
  broadcast
 !
 pvc router4 200/400
  broadcast
 !
 ipx network 6000

Many thanks & regards.
