With ATM and SVC's the end station must be registered on the switch for a
call completion.

I would verify the NSAP address is registered on the switch for each end
station and run a debug on ATM signaling to see what the problem is with
call setup and manually configured NSAP's.

I am, by no means, and ATM expert, but I don't see why you couldn't use an
NSAP instead of an ESI only.

Hi,

Jon is right. But I am still wondering why it did not work with NSAP
address. Is anything wrong with the NSAP address? Cisco documentation ios
12.0 says, When you configure the ATM NSAP address manually, you must enter
the entire address in hexadecimal format since each digit entered represents
a hexadecimal digit. To represent the complete NSAP address, you must enter
40 hexadecimal digits in the following format.
xx.xxxx.xx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xx
It also says that you can configure either esi or nsap address.

Regards,
Ravi
