Configuring ATM Router Modules


This chapter describes steps required to configure the ATM router module on the Catalyst 8540 MSR, Catalyst 8510 MSR, and LightStream 1010 switch routers, and the enhanced ATM router module on the Catalyst 8540 MSR.


Note The Catalyst 8540 MSR enhanced ATM router module is supported on Cisco IOS release 12.1E and later.



Note The Catalyst 8540 MSR needs a minimum of 256-MB DRAM to support the enhanced ATM router module.


The ATM router module allows you to integrate Layer 3 routing and ATM switching within a single chassis. When you install the ATM router module, you no longer need to choose either Layer 3 or ATM technology, as is frequently the case with enterprise, campus, and MAN applications.

This chapter includes the following sections:

Configuring LANE Clients

Configuring Multiprotocol Encapsulation over ATM

Configuring Classical IP over ATM in a PVC Environment

Note For more software configuration information, refer to the ATM Switch Router Software Configuration Guide and Layer 3 Software Configuration Guide.


Configuring LANE Clients

On the Catalyst 8540 MSR, the ATM router module supports LANE clients (LECs), but not LANE servers (LES, LECS, and BUS). It separates the control and data path so that all LANE control messages are handled by the route processor, and all data messages are switched on the ATM router module port. LECs are configured on ATM router module interfaces, but control message traffic is sent to the route processor by the ATM router module. The ATM router module sends all ATM data traffic to the appropriate VCs.

The procedures for configuring LANE clients (LECs) on the ATM router module are the same as for the configuration of LECs on the route processor, with one exception: To specify an ATM router module interface, rather than the route processor interface, use the interface atm card/subcard/port command. On the route processor, you would use the interface atm 0 command.


Note Only the Catalyst 8540 MSR ATM router module supports LANE clients.



Note An ATM router module interface can be configured for either LECs or RFC 1483 PVCs, not both. For both features to operate on the same ATM router module, configure LECs on one interface and RFC 1483 PVCs on the other.


For more information on configuring LECs, see Chapter 4, "Configuring LANE."

Configuring Multiprotocol Encapsulation over ATM

The primary use of multiprotocol encapsulation over ATM, also know as RFC 1483, is carrying multiple Layer 3 and bridged frames over ATM. RFC 1483 traffic is routed through an ATM router module interface using static map lists. Static map lists provide an alternative to using the ATM Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and ATM Inverse ARP (InARP) mechanisms.


Note Traffic shaping and policing are not supported on the ATM router module interfaces; for traffic shaping and policing on ATM connections, use VP tunnels. For more information on VP tunnels, see the "Configuring VP Tunnels" section on page 3-21.

Configuring Classical IP over ATM in a PVC Environment

This section describes how to configure classical IP over ATM, as described in RFC 1577, in a PVC environment on the ATM router module. The ATM Inverse ARP (InARP) mechanism is applicable to networks that use permanent virtual circuits (PVCs), where connections are established but the network addresses of the remote ends are not known.

For a description of classical IP over ATM and RFC 1577, refer to the Guide to ATM Technology.

Perform these steps:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1

Switch> enable

Enters privileged EXEC mode.

Step 2

Switch# configure terminal

Switch(config)#

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3

Switch(config)# interface atm card/subcard/port

Switch(config-if)#

Specifies the ATM router module interface to be configured.

Step 4

Switch(config-if)# ip address ip-address mask

Specifies the IP address of the interface.

Step 5

Switch(config-if)# atm pvc 2 vci interface atm card/subcard/port vpi vci encap {aal5mux1 | aal5snap} [inarp minutes]

Creates a PVC and enables ATM InARP.

Note The VPI number on the ATM Router Module interface must be 2. The VCI range has been increased from 4095 to 8191 with the introduction of 8k(8192) VC support on the enhanced ATM Router Module for Cisco IOS Release 12.1(14)EB and later.

 

Step 6

Switch(config-if)# exit

Switch(config)#

Repeat steps 3 through 5 for each PVC you want to create.

Step 7

Switch(config)# end

Switch#

Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 8

Switch# copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config

Saves your configuration changes to NVRAM.

Switch(config-if) end
Switch# copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config

Configuring Classical IP over ATM in an SVC Environment

This section describes how to configure classical IP over ATM in an SVC environment on your ATM router module. It requires configuring only the device's own ATM address and that of a single ATM Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) server into each client device.

For a detailed description of the role and operation of the ATM ARP server, refer to the Guide to ATM Technology.

The switch router can be configured as an ATM ARP client, thereby being able to work with any ATM ARP server conforming to RFC 1577. Alternatively, one of the ATM switch routers in a logical IP subnet (LIS) can be configured to act as the ATM ARP server itself. In that case, it automatically acts as a client as well.

The following sections describe configuring the switch router in an SVC environment, as either an ATM ARP client or an ATM ARP server.

Configuring as an ATM ARP Client

The switch router can be configured as an ATM ARP client, thereby being able to work with any ATM ARP server conforming to RFC 1577.

Perform these steps:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1

Switch> enable

Enters privileged EXEC mode.

Step 2

Switch# configure terminal

Switch(config)#

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3

Switch(config)# interface atm card/subcard/port

Switch(config-if)#

Selects the ATM router module interface.

Step 4

Switch(config-if)# atm nsap-address nsap-address

or

Switch(config-if)# atm esi-address esi.selector

Specifies the network service access point (NSAP) ATM address of the interface.

or

Specifies the end-system-identifier (ESI) address of the interface.

Step 5

Switch(config-if)# ip address ip-address mask

Specifies the IP address of the interface.

Step 6

Switch(config-if)# atm arp-server nsap nsap-address

Specifies the ATM address of the ATM ARP server.

Step 7

Switch(config-if)# exit

Switch(config)#

Exits interface configuration mode.

Step 8

Switch(config)# atm route addr-prefix1 atm card/subcard/port internal

Configures a static route through the ATM router module interface. See the note that follows this table.

Step 9

Switch(config)# end

Switch#

Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 10

Switch# copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config

Saves your configuration changes to NVRAM.

1 The address prefix is the first 19 bytes of the NSAP address.


Note The end system identifier (ESI) address form is preferred, in that it automatically handles the advertising of the address. Use the network service access point (NSAP) form of the command when you need to define a full 20-byte unique address with a prefix unrelated to the network prefix on that interface. You only need to specify a static route when configuring an ARP client using an NSAP address.


Figure 6-5 shows three ATM switch routers and a router connected using classical IP over ATM.

NSAP Address Example

The following example shows how to configure the ATM router module interface ATM 1/0/0, of Client A in Figure 6-5, using the NSAP address:

Configuring as an ATM ARP Server

Cisco's implementation of the ATM ARP server supports a single, nonredundant server per LIS, and one ATM ARP server per subinterface. Thus, a single switch router can support multiple ARP servers by using multiple interfaces.

Perform these steps:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1

Switch> enable

Enters privileged EXEC mode.

Step 2

Switch# configure terminal

Switch(config)#

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3

Switch(config)# interface atm card/subcard/port[.subinterface [multipoint]]

Switch(config-if)#

Selects the ATM router module interface.

Step 4

Switch(config-if)# atm nsap-address nsap-address

or

Switch(config-if)# atm esi-address esi.selector

Specifies the NSAP ATM address of the interface.

or

Specifies the ESI address of the interface.

Step 5

Switch(config-if)# ip address ip-address mask

Specifies the IP address of the interface.

Step 6

Switch(config-if)# atm arp-server 
self [time-out minutes]1  

Configures the interface as the ATM ARP server for the logical IP network.

Step 7

Switch(config-if)# atm route 
addr-prefix2  atm card/subcard/port 
internal

Configures a static route through the ATM router module interface.

Step 8

Switch(config-if)# end

Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 9

Switch(config)# copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config

Saves your configuration changes to NVRAM.

1 This form of the atm arp-server command indicates that this interface performs the ATM ARP server functions. When you configure the ATM ARP client (described earlier), the atm arp-server command is used—with a different keyword and argument—to identify a different ATM ARP server to the client.

2 Address prefix is the first 19 bytes of the NSAP address.

Example

Configuring Bridging

All PVCs configured on ATM router module interfaces are used for bridging.

To configure bridging on an ATM router module interface, use the following commands, beginning in global configuration mode:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1

Switch#enable

Enters privileged EXEC mode.

Step 2

Switch#

Switch>

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 3

Switch# configure terminalinterface atm card/subcard/port

Switch(config)#

Specifies the ATM router module interface to be configured.

Step 4

Switch(config)# atm pvc 2Switch(config-if)#vciSwitch(config-if)# interface atm card/subcard/port vpi

Configures a PVC.

Note The VPI number on the ATM router module interface must be 2.

 

Step 5

bridge-group number

Assigns the interface to a bridge group.

Step 6

exit

Switch(config-if)#

Returns to global configuration mode.

Step 7

Switch(config-if)# interface Switch(config)# fastethernet Switch(config)# gigabitethernet{ card/subcard/port

|

Specifies the Ethernet interface to configure.

Step 8

}no cdp enable

Disables Cisco Discovery Protocol on the interface.

Step 9

Switch(config-if)#bridge-groupSwitch(config-if)# number

Assigns the interface to a bridge group.

Step 10

Switch(config-if)# exit

Returns to global configuration mode.

Step 11

Switch(config-if)# bridge number protocol ieee

Specifies the IEEE 802.1D Spanning-Tree Protocol for the bridge group.

Step 12

Switch(config)#end

Switch(config)#

Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 13

Switch(config)# copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config

Saves your configuration changes to NVRAM.

Figure 6-6 shows an example bridging network.

Configuring IP Multicast Routing

You can configure IP multicast routing over an RFC 1483 permanent virtual channel (PVC) on an ATM router module interface.

Perform these steps:

 
Command
Purpose

Step 1

Switch#ip multicast-routing

Enables IP multicast routing.

Step 2

Switch# interfaceSwitch(config)# atmSwitch(config)# card/subcard/port subinterface multipoint

.

Creates the ATM router module point-to-multipoint subinterface, and enters subinterface mode.

Note The ATM router module only supports point-to-multipoint subinterfaces.

 

Step 3

map-groupSwitch(config-subif)# name

Enters the map group name associated with this PVC.

Step 4

Switch(config-subif)# atm pvc 2 vci-a interfaceSwitch(config-subif)# atm card/subcard/port .vpt# vpi-b vci-b[encap aal5snap

Configures the PVC.

Note The VPI number on the ATM Router Module interface must be 2. The VCI range has been increased from 4095 to 8191 with the introduction of 8k(8192) VC support on the enhanced ATM Router Module for Cisco IOS Release 12.1(14)EB and later.

 

Step 5

]ip pim dense-mode

Enables Protocol Independent Multicast dense mode on the subinterface.

Step 6

exit

Switch(config-subif)#

Returns to global configuration mode.

Step 7

Switch(config-subif)# map-listSwitch(config)# name

Switch(config)#

Creates a map list by naming it, and enters map-list configuration mode.

Step 8

ip ip-addressSwitch(config-map-list)# atm-nsapSwitch(config-map-list)# address {atm-vc vci broadcast

Associates a protocol and address with a specific virtual circuit.

Step 9

| end

}

Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 10

Switch(config-map-list)#copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config

Saves your configuration changes to NVRAM.

Example

Switch> enable
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# ip multicast-routing
Switch(config)# interface atm 1/0/0.1011 multipoint
Switch(config-subif)# ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
Switch(config-subif)# map-group net1011
Switch(config-subif)# atm pvc 2 1011 interface atm 3/0/0 0 1011 encap aal5snap 
Switch(config-subif)# ip pim dense-mode
Switch(config-subif)# exit
Switch(config)# map-list net1011 
Switch(config-map-list)# ip 10.1.1.2 atm-vc 1011 broadcast
Switch(config-map-list)# end
Switch# copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config
