RE : ATM ubr or ubr+

Alsontra, what I meant is that the author did configure the following:

ubr 155000 512

However, when you put "512" this is only needed in an SVC scenario as per
the doc-cd.

So my question is: Should not "ubr+ 155000 512" be the solution ?
As here, a minimum of 512Kbps is guaranteed,

note: now we see a diff between this book and the well known vendors. We
have no support ...

Hi Richard,

I think you can applied a VC class to either a PVC or SVC.

<snip>
"A VC class is a set of reconfigured VC parameters that you configure and
apply to a particular VC or ATM interface. You may apply a VC class to an
ATM main interface, subinterface, PVC, or SVC. " -
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fwan
_c/wcfatm.htm#35055
</snip>

However, I am confused as to how the author configures both a PCR and MCR
using only UBR. As the below excerpt shows, UBR has on a PCR parameter and
UBR + has a PCR and MCR. As I understand the question, I think only UBR
shaping is required.

<snip>
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# abr output-pcr output-mcr Configures the Available
Bit Rate (ABR). (ATM-CES port adapter and Multiport T1/E1 ATM Network Module
only.)
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# ubr output-pcr Configures the Unspecified Bit Rate
(UBR).
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# ubr+ output-pcr output-mcr Configures the UBR and
a minimum guaranteed rate.
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# vbr-nrt output-pcr output-scr output-mbs
Configures the Variable Bit Rate-Non Real Time (VBR-NRT) QOS.
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# vbr-rt peak-rate average-rate burst Configures the
real-time Variable Bit Rate (VBR). (Cisco MC3810 and Multiport T1/E1 ATM
Network Module only.)

Although I can't be certain, I think this book may contain several errors
per section. An feed back on the above would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Alsontra
