Feature Overview

The IP to ATM Class of Service Mapping for SVC Bundles feature supports multiple switched virtual circuits (SVCs) to the same NSAP destination for different types of service (ToS). This feature is an extension of the feature described in the "Configuring IP to ATM Class of Service" module. The original feature was limited to permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) only. This feature is an extension because it applies to SVCs.

The PVC bundle feature requires that the user configure PVCs for different IP ToS. The PVCs have to be set up throughout the ATM network between endpoints. The IP to ATM Class of Service Mapping for SVC Bundles feature needs configuration only at the endpoints. The user does not configure SVCs; the software sets up SVCs in a bundle between endpoints. When the router receives the first IP packet for the destination that is configured in the SVC bundle, that event triggers the creation of the SVC.

A default SVC is used for non-IP traffic, IP traffic with no precedence, and IP traffic with the precedence bit set but for which no SVC exists. SVC setup for the specific IP precedence traffic is triggered when the first IP packet with that precedence bit set is received.

Benefits

Multiple SVCs with Different QoS Parameters

Users can have multiple SVCs, each with different QoS parameters, between SVC endpoints. This allows the customer to easily offer differentiated services between SVC nodes.

Reduced Configuration

SVC bundle configuration requires less configuration than a PVC configuration. The PVC bundle feature needs the configuration of PVCs in bundles throughout the ATM network. However, an SVC bundle needs configuration only at the endpoints and uses the User-Network Interface (UNI) to set up SVCs in the bundle between endpoints.

Restrictions

Both router platforms require enhanced ATM port adapters.

Related Features and Technologies

The SVC bundle feature is similar to the IP to ATM Class of Service feature, which is documented in the "Configuring IP to ATM Class of Service" module.

Platform Support Through Feature Navigator

Cisco IOS software is packaged in feature sets that support specific platforms. To get updated information regarding platform support for this feature, access Feature Navigator. Feature Navigator dynamically updates the list of supported platforms as new platform support is added for the feature.

Feature Navigator is a web-based tool that enables you to quickly determine which Cisco IOS software images support a specific set of features and which features are supported in a specific Cisco IOS image.

To access Feature Navigator, you must have an account on Cisco.com. If you have forgotten or lost your account information, send a blank e-mail to cco-locksmith@cisco.com. An automatic check will verify that your e-mail address is registered with Cisco.com. If the check is successful, account details with a new random password will be e-mailed to you. Qualified users can establish an account on Cisco.com by following the directions at http://www.cisco.com/register.

Feature Navigator is updated when major Cisco IOS software releases and technology releases occur. As of May 2001, Feature Navigator supports M, T, E, S, and ST releases. You can access Feature Navigator at the following URL:

Prerequisites

Before configuring the IP to ATM Class of Service for SVC Bundles feature, you should read and understand the concepts in the following modules:

"Configuring ATM" module

"Configuring IP to ATM Class of Service" module

"IP to ATM Class of Service Overview" module

Configuration Tasks

The following sections describe configuration tasks for the IP to ATM Class of Service Mapping for SVC Bundles feature. Each task in the list is identified as either optional or required.

Note that the bundle members must be configured either directly, by bundle-level parameters, or by class. The bundle configuration should be the same on both ends (the end where the SVC is initiated and the end where it is terminated).

Creating an SVC Bundle (required)

Configuring Bundle-Level Parameters (optional)

Attaching a Class to a Bundle (optional)

Configuring an SVC Bundle Member Directly (optional)

Creating an SVC Bundle

Command
Purpose

Router(config-if)# bundle svc bundle-name nsap destination-nsap-address

Creates or modifies an SVC bundle. The name must be the same on both sides of the VC.

Configuring Bundle-Level Parameters

Command
Purpose

Router(config-if-atm-svc-bundle)# protocol ip protocol-address [broadcast]

Configures the destination network address of an SVC bundle.

Router(config-if-atm-svc-bundle)# encapsulation aal5 {snap | mux ip}

Sets the encapsulation method used by the interface. By default, encapsulation aal5 snap is enabled.

Router(config-if-atm-svc-bundle)# class-bundle vc-class-name

(Optional) Configures a bundle with the bundle-level commands contained in the specified VC class.

Router(config-if-atm-svc-bundle)# oam-bundle [manage] [frequency]

(Optional) Enables end-to-end F5 operation, administration, and maintenance (OAM) loopback cell generation and OAM management for all VC members of a bundle or a VC class that can be applied to a VC bundle.

Attaching a Class to a Bundle

Command
Purpose

Router(config-if-atm-svc-bundle)# class-bundle vc-class-name

(Optional) Configures a bundle with the bundle-level commands contained in the specified VC class.

Configuring an SVC Bundle Member Directly

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1 

Router(config-if-atm-svc-bundle)# svc-bundle svc-handle

Creates or modifies a member of an SVC bundle.

Note Each SVC bundle can have a maximum of eight members. The number of members and the precedence values attached to them should be the same on both ends of the SVC (that is, where the SVC is initiated and where it is terminated).

 

Router(config-if-atm-svc-member)# ubr output-pcr [input-pcr]

Configures the VC for unspecified bit rate (UBR) QoS and specifies the output peak cell rate (PCR) for it.

 

Router(config-if-atm-svc-member)# ubr+ output-pcr output-mcr [input-pcr] [input-mcr]

Configures the VC for UBR Qos and specifies the output PCR and output minimum guaranteed cell rate for it.

 

Router(config-if-atm-svc-member)# vbr-rt peak-rate average-rate burst

Configures the real-time variable bit rate (VBR).

 

Router(config-if-atm-svc-member)# precedence [other | range]

Configures the precedence levels for the VC.

 

Router(config-if-atm-svc-member)# bump {implicit | explicit precedence-level | traffic}

Configures the bumping rules for the VC.

 

Router(config-if-atm-svc-member)# idle-timeout seconds [minimum-rate]

Configure the idle timeout parameter for tearing down an ATM SVC.

 

Router(config-if-atm-svc-member)# class-vc vc-class-name

Assigns a VC class to a VC bundle member.

Monitoring IP to ATM Class of Service Mapping for SVC Bundles

Command
Purpose

Router# debug atm bundle error

Displays debug messages for SVC bundle errors.

Router# debug atm bundle events

Displays SVC bundle events.

Router# show atm bundle svc bundle-name

Displays the bundle attributes assigned to each bundle VC member and the current working status of the VC members.

Router# show atm bundle svc bundle-name statistics

Displays the statistics of an SVC bundle.


Configuration Examples

This section provides the following configuration examples:

Example: IP to ATM Class of Service Mapping with Bundle Parameters Configured in Bundle Mode

Example: IP to ATM Class of Service Mapping with Bundle Parameters Configured with the class-bundle Command

Example: IP to ATM Class of Service Mapping with Bundle Parameters Configured in Bundle Mode

In this example, the bundle parameters are configured in bundle mode. Initially, the end station ID (ESI) address and an Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI) PVC are configured.

The PVC helps in getting the prefix from the switch (for example, an LS 1010). The combined address is the NSAP address.

You also need to know the other NSAP address to configure the SVC bundle. The eight VC classes are configured with precedences and traffic parameters. The classes must be configured before you attach them to the specific members. The vc-class commands could also be configured in the bundle-member configuration. The configuration of the members must be the same at both ends (that is, where the bundle is initiated and where it is terminated).
