Introduction
This document provides common IGX configuration scenarios that are typically found in real working networks. The majority of these labs are simple, yet effective, in demonstrating the abilities of the multiservice IGX switch.
Several aspects of IGX configuration are covered, including trunk, voice, data, Frame Relay, and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) permanent virtual circuit (PVC) provisioning.
Prerequisites
Requirements
Before attempting this configuration, ensure that you meet the following requirements:
-
Basic knowledge of IGX operations and theory.
-
Basic knowledge of VoIP configurations on the 3810 and 3600 platforms.
-
Solid understanding of the following:
-
WAN circuits (T1 through OC-3)
-
Voice theory and technologies
-
Frame Relay
-
Data
-
ATM
-
Components Used
The information in this document is based on these hardware and software items:
-
The three types of IGX chassis—IGX 8410, 8420, and 8430. The primary difference between the chassis is the number of available card slots:
-
IGX 8410—8 card slots
-
IGX 8420—16 card slots
-
IGX 8430—32 card slots
Node and card functionality, bus architecture, throughput, and management are identical among the three node types.
-
-
The system bus backplane on an IGX node supports the following four buses:
-
Cell—a 256 Mbps time division multiplexed (TDM) bus, used by all cards except the Alarm Relay Module (ARM) card. The cell bus transports FastPackets from one card to another.
-
Control—used by the Nodal Processor Module (NPM) to configure and communicate with all the other cards in the node.
-
Timing—used to distribute synchronization signals to all cards in the node.
-
Power—used to distribute –48V DC and ground to all cards in the node.
-
-
Conrol module—Nodal Processor Card (NPM)
The NPM is the central processor for the IGX node and stores system software and all configuration information. The NPM card resides in slot 1 and slot 2 only.
-
Trunk modules:
-
Universal ATM Module (UXM)
-
Broadband Trunk Module (BTM)—supports a single T3, E3, or High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI), which is a ATM trunk and converts FastPackets into ATM cells.
-
ATM Line Module Model B (ALM/B)—supports the same functions as the BTM at full T3 or E3 rates.
-
-
Voice modules:
-
Universal Voice Module (UVM)—supports a single channelized digital voice line in T1 or E1 format. In addition to optional ADPCM and VAD compression, voice connections terminating on the UVM can be configured for Low Delay-Code Excited Linear Predictive (LD-CELP) compression.
-
Channelized Voice Module (CVM)—supports a single T1, E1, or J1 line and is used to bring in multiplexed digital voice traffic. The CVM can also be used to support transparent data traffic or a combination of voice and data.
-
-
Data modules:
-
High Speed Data Module (HDM)—supports four high-speed serial data ports and creates FastPackets from the incoming transparent data. EIA/TIA-232, V.35, and EIA/TIAA-449 interfaces are available.
-
Low Speed Data Module (LDM)—supports four or Eight low-speed serial data ports just like the HDM card. EIA/TIA-232 and Digital Data Service (DDS) interfaces are available.
-
-
Frame Relay modules:
-
Frame Relay Module (FRM)—converts Frame Relay data into FastPackets and supports four serial ports (V.35 or X.21). The FRM takes frame relay frames from multiple end-user devices and segments them into FastPackets. Frame Relay connections terminating on the FRM can be configured to use the ForeSight algorithm. A FRI-V.35 or FRI-X.21 back card is used with the FRM card.
-
Universal Frame Relay Module Un-channelized (UFMU)—supports all of the same functions as the FRM card, in addition the UFMU supports service interworking (SIW) and either 6 or 12 un-channelized lines. The UFI back card is available with a choice of V.35, X.21, or HSSI interfaces.
-
Universal Frame Relay Module Channelized (UFM-C)—supports all of the same functions as the FRM card, in addition the UFM-C supports service interworking (SIW) and either four or eight channelized lines. The UFI back card is available in either T1 or E1 format.
-
-
ATM Card:
-
Universal ATM Module (UXM)
-
The information presented in this document was created from devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If you are working in a live network, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command before using it.

CLI and Basic Node Configuration
This section describes the command line interface and basic node configuration.
Getting Help
The help command (or ? command) provides an online help menu. Use the arrow keys to highlight a command category. Use the Return or Enter keys to select the category to list all commands. You can then select a command in the same way. Use the help command to find a command or list the parameters associated with the command.
Note: The help command does not provide information on the use of a command or the meaning of any parameters.
Note: To find additional information on the commands used in this document, use the Command Lookup Tool (registered customers only) .
Signing On
There are for main ways to access the IGX node:
-
Control port—VT100 terminal Emulation (Default)
-
Aux port—VT100 terminal Emulation
-
LAN port—via Telnet protocol
-
IP Relay—via Telnet protocol
The following illustrates an example of a login screen:
| Login Screen Example |
|---|
i8420-1a TN No User IGX 8420 9.2.33 May 22 2002 01:29 EST Enter User ID: |
The login screen example above contains the following information:
-
i8420-1a = Node name
-
TN = Access method to the IGX—Telnet
-
9.2.33 = Currently running switch software release number
Logging Out
To log out of the system, enter the bye command. The following illustrates an example of a logout screen:
| Logout Screen Example |
|---|
i8420-1a TN StrataCom IGX 8420 9.2.33 May 22 2002 01:33 EST
Last Command: bye
|
The bye command terminates your CLI session and places you back at the login prompt.
Using the Virtual Terminal Method to Access a Remote Node
Once you add trunks (see the IGX Trunks section), you have the ability to use a virtual terminal (VT) or access a remote node via internodal communication channels (CC traffic).
In order to access a remote node, both nodes must be in the network, although there does not need to be a trunk directly established between the two nodes. User ID’s and passwords operate network-wide, so you do not need to log in when a VT session is established to another node.
By default, only one VT session can be active on a node at a time. VT sessions cannot be “chained” (for example, VT to node B, then VT to node C, then VT to node D).
To end a VT session, use the bye command.
The following illustrates an example of a VT session, where IGX-B is the node name with which you want to connect:

The VT text in the illustration above indicates that you have access to the IGX node (IGX-B) via virtual terminal.
Clearing and Redrawing
The redscrn command can be used to redraw the active screen. This is useful if your terminal application and/or screen display shows garbled characters, which can occur over modem dial-in lines with poor line quality.
The following illustration shows a screen with garbled characters (in bold):

Configuring a Node Name
The cnfname command specifies the name by which a node is known within a network. You can change a node name at any time—the new node name is automatically distributed to other nodes within the network.
Note: Node names must start with a letter and contain up to eight alphanumeric characters. You may also use hyphens ( - ), and underscores ( _ ). Node names are case sensitive and duplicate node names are not allowed in a network.
The following illustration shows the IGX-A node name is identified with the dspnds command:

Configuring the Time Zone
Use the cnftmzn command to set the local time zone for the nodes. Configuring the time zone for a node ensures that the node time is correct for the local area.
Caution: If you do not set the node to the correct local time zone, it affects
the time stamps in the event, software, and card error logs.
As an example, the cnftmzn EST command sets the node to the Eastern Standard Time Zone.
IGX Trunks
This section contains the following configuration and user information sections:
Configuring NTM Trunk
Complete the following steps to configure an NTM trunk:
-
Use the uptrk ntm-slot# command, where ntm-slot# is the slot number in which the NTM card resides, to bring up the NTM trunk. This activates the physical port on this slot, and sends a signal out the interface based on your configurations (see Step 2).
-
Use the cnftrk ntm-slot# command, where ntm-slot# is the slot number in which the NTM card resides, to configure the NTM trunk as needed:

Configuring UXM Trunks
Complete the following steps to configure a UXM trunk:
-
Use the uptrk command on both sides to bring up the UXM trunk. This activates the physical port on this slot, and sends a signal out the interface based on your configurations. Notice that the trunk will be in a RED alarm state until both sides of the trunk are upped, and the two sides are cabled together.
Using the uptrk Command IGX-A TN Cisco IGX 8420 9.3.45 June 13 2003 15:10 EST TRK Type Current Line Alarm Status Other End 16.1 OC3 Major - Loss of Sig (RED) - Last Command: uptrk 16.1

Configuring UXM IMA Trunks
This section describes how to build and configure UXM inverse multiplexing over ATM (IMA) trunks between nodes, and how to configure retained links.
Note: In the IMA protocol, "retained links" are the minimum number of links (T1s or E1s) that must be active for the entire IMA group to stay active.
-
Use the uptrk command with two T1s in the IMA group to bring up the UXM IMA trunk:
Using the uptrk Command IGX-A TN Cisco IGX 8420 9.3.45 June 13 2003 15:22 EST TRK Type Current Line Alarm Status Other End 16.1(2) T1/47 Clear - OK - Last Command: uptrk 16.1-2

Points of interest you should be aware of in this configuration:
-
Available bandwidth = 7094 (2 T1s - IMA overhead):
-
1 DS0 = 151 CPS
-
1 T1 = 3622 CPS
-
-
IMA overhead:
-
1 DS0 for 1 to 4 T1s in the IMA group
-
2 DS0 for 5 to 8 T1s in the IMA group
-
-
Virtual Trunk Overview
The following compatibility issues should be followed:
-
A virtual trunk is simply a trunk defined over a public ATM cloud. Within the cloud, one virtual trunk is equivalent to one Virtual Path Connection (VPC) or Virtual Circuit Connection (VCC). There are some rules to be concerned with when building virtual trunks.
The following virtual trunk pairs are allowed:
-
Broadband Switch Module (BXM)/BXM
-
BXM/UXM
-
UXM/UXM
-
Broadband Network Interface (BNI)/BNI
The following virtual trunk pairs are not allowed because of the different cell structures used between the three cards. The BNI uses a Stratacom Trunk Interface (STI) cell format, whereas the BXM and UXM use a standards format User Network Interface (UNI)/Network Node Interface (NNI) cell format.
-
BXM/BNI
-
UXM/BNI
-
The following illustration shows cell formats:
Virtual Trunk Wraparound Example
This sections describes how to use a virtual trunk wraparound solution to build a VT between two IGX nodes. In this example, the Virtual Path Connection (VPC) that is usually purchased from an ATM provider, has the following:
-
Constant Bit Rate (CBR) traffic type
-
A Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) of 1
Note: Typically, the VT wraparound solution was used in 9.1.x based networks, as 9.1.x switch software did not support a native virtual trunk.
The virtual terminal wraparound configuration steps are listed below:
-
Cabling for VT wraparound consists of 2 physical connections to be made on each IGX UXM card (see illustration above):
-
For For IGX-A:
-
15.1 => Cabled to ATM Provider
-
15.2 => 15.3
-
-
For IGX-B:
-
16.1 => Cabled to ATM provider
-
16.2 => 16.3
-
-
-
Bring up two lines and ports:
-
Use the following command on the IGX-A:
-
upln 15.1
-
upln 15.2
-
upport 15.1
-
upport 15.2
-
-
Use the following command on the IGX-B:
-
upln 16.1
-
upln 16.2
-
upport 16.1
-
upport 16.2
You can verify the line configuration with the dsplncnf command:

Troubleshooting Wraparound Trunks
This section describes common failures and verifications you can perform to resolve the failures.
If an addtrk command fails with a No response from other node or a Comm Fail message, communication between the two adjacent nodes failed. Use the following methods to resolve the failure:
-
Use the cnftrk command to verify correct payload scrambling.
-
Verify correct VPI values—they must match what the VPC provider is using.
-
Investigate the local connection for problems.
-
Investigate the ATM provider for dropped ATM cells.
Native Virtual Trunks
This section describes how to use a native virtual trunk configuration to build a constant bit rate (CBR) virtual trunk between two IGX switches.
In this procedure:
-
The VPC is provided as the ATM cloud, via a BPX VP connection
-
CBR traffic type is used
-
VPI of 1 is used
-
Use the uptrk command to bring up the VT:

Voice
The following sections describe the basics of IGX voice cards and the configuration of several types of typical setups:
To emulate PBXs, we use 3810s with MultiFlex Trunk Modules (MFT) directly connected to the UVM. Standard POTS lines are connected to FXS ports on the 3810.

Basic Voice Troubleshooting
This section describes basic troubleshooting techniques for the following voice issues:
-
Clocking
-
Clipping
-
Background noise
-
Echo
-
Delay
Clocking
The usual clocking condition to the PBX is normal, which implies that the UVM monitors the transmit data and expects the receive data frequency to match. This means that the UVM is providing clocking to the PBX and the PBX is using the receive timing to clock transmit data out to the UVM. Use the cnfln command to configure a loop clock, not on the IGX 8400 and PBX. If the PBX is connected to a digital ISDN service or a Building Integrated Timing Supply (BITS) clock, then it is acquiring a clocking reference from another source. In this case, declare the PBX to be a clocking source to IGX using the cnfclksrc command. If the PBX is not connected to ISDN, BITS, or another known clock source, do not declare it as a clock source.
Complete the following steps to ensure that the PBX clocking is consistent with the configuration:
-
Use the dsplnerrs command to ensure the clocking is not causing frame slips. The cnfln command may be required to adjust the clock configuration to Loop or Local.
-
Verify that the PBX is not detecting frame slips.
-
Use the cnflnalm command to make the alarm of both circuit line and trunk more sensitive so the operator is made aware of any problems.
Clipping
If speech syllables are getting clipped, especially at the beginning of a spoken sentence, use the cnfuvmchparm command to lower the VAD threshold from –40 dBm (default) to –50 dBm or –60 dBm. With a lower VAD threshold, the cnfchutl should be increased to 60% or 70%.
If clipping occurs during busy hour (trunk congestion), check for packet drops on the trunk. Verify that channel utilization is correctly configured. If the number of VAD voice channels sharing a common trunk bandwidth is small (for example, 24 or less), the peak voice bandwidth utilization may often exceed the allocated trunk bandwidth. This situation is more likely to occur on a subrate trunk. To resolve the problem, increase the channel utilization and trunk bandwidth.
Background Noise
If the noise level during silent periods seems too high, use the cnfuvmchparm command to lower the noise injection level to –70 dBm or –80 dBm. If there is adequate noise being generated by the external equipment (such as channel bank), the noise injection may be set to –100 dBm.
Echo
A critical parameter in echo cancellation performance is the echo return loss (ERL) as seen by the UVM:
ERL seen by UVM = 4w/2w hybrid ERL + loss in the external equipment.
If echo remains for a few seconds at the beginning of a conversation, it is usually caused by slow convergence of echo canceller on calls with low ERL (6 to 10 dB as seen by the UVM card). Decrease the upper convergence speed threshold (UCST) value using the cnfuvmchparm command (parameter 8). Lowering the UCST (to 12 dB, for example) would reduce initial echo, but may cause a slight echo/distortion during double talk, especially if the talker levels on the two ends are very different.
If echo cancellation does not converge because of very poor ERL (less than 5 dB), use the cnfuvmchparm command to configure the double talk detection threshold (DTDT) value (parameter 9). You should set the DTDT to approximately 1 dB lower than the circuit ERL seen by the UVM card.
If echo or distortion/static is heard during double talk, it may be the opposite of ERL problem above. Echo cancellation may be diverging during low level double talk. Increase the UCST one notch (for example, by 6 dB).
If residual echo is heard with a large network delay, use the cnfchec command to verify that non-linear processing is enabled.
Delay
Delay is the amount of time it takes for one party's speech to reach the other party's ear. Packet networks tend to have somewhat greater delay than TDM based networks. Also some compressions contribute greater delay than others. As a rule, the higher the compression ratio (or lower the bandwidth used per voice connection) the greater the incremental delay. For example, g729r8 has greater delay than L16, which in turn has greater delay than a32. Studies have shown that one-way delay up to 150 msec is generally imperceptible in a normal conversation.
Refer to Voice Parameters and Tuning Guide for the IGX 8400, VISM, 3810, FastPAD, and VNS for more information on voice tuning and configuration.
Data Connections
This section describes the capabilities of the IGX switch LDM and HDM cards, and contains the following sections:
The following serial ports are supported on HDM/LDM cards:
-
Data communications equipment (DCE)
-
Data terminal equipment (DTE)
The following table describes the available interfaces on the LDM and HDM cards:
| Interface | Description |
|---|---|
| EIA/TIA-232 | Formerly RS-232 |
| V.35 | Standard V.35 interface |
| EIA/TIA-449/X.21 | Formerly RS-449 |
| DDS | Digital Data Service |
Refer to the following for more card details and specifications:
-
The Components Used section of this document.
-
The Card Installation and Node Startup chapter of Cisco IGX 8400 Series Installation, Release 8.5.
Data Port Clocking Modes
The DCE is generally responsible for clocking the data. The clocking between two devices can be configured in one of two ways:
-
Normal mode—The DCE provides both the transmit and the receive clock. The DCE is the clock master and the DTE is the clock slave.
-
Looped—The DCE provides only the receive clock, and the DTE provides the transmit clock. In most cases, one of the devices is locking onto the clock from the other end and is recreating it as its own clock signal.
The following illustration shows the data port clocking modes:
Use the cnfdclk command to configure the data port clock mode.
Interface Control Templates
Interface control templates (ICTs) are used to define the outbound control leads on a data channel based on the current state of the associated connection. The ICT provides option end-to-end control lead continuity by manipulating output control leads. Use the cnfict command to modify ICTs. following table lists the available ICT templates and their corresponding statuses:
| Condition | Connection Status |
|---|---|
| Active | OK |
| Conditioned | Failed or down |
| Looped | A software configured loop is in progress |
| Near | A near external modem loop is in progress |
| Far | A far external modem loop is in progress |
Control lead options for ICTs are listed below:
-
Follow a local input or output lead
-
Follow a remote input or output lead
-
Stay high
-
Stay low
V.35 HDLC Data Connection Lab
This example describes how to configure the HDM card to build and pass data. The following illustration shows the connections for this lab:
-
Connect cables to the V.35 ports. Ensure that you verify the DTE/DCE sides.
Note: Routers typically are the DTE. The IGX is is the DCE.
-
Use the addcon command to add the data connection from the IGX-A side:
addcon 11.1 IGX-B 3.1 256 8/8
This step adds a 256K data connection between the HDMs using 8/8 encoding.

-
Refer to V.35/RS449 Cable Length Recommendations to verify proper cabling and cable lengths are in effect.
-
Use the dspcurclk command on each endpoint to find the network clock source for the endpoint to investigate the possibility of periodic bursts. When HDM or LDM circuits suffer from periodic bursts of errors, node synchronization may be the issue. If the clocks are not synchronized, such bursts of errors are expected.
Frame Relay
This section describes the Frame Relay capabilities for the various frame relay based cards in the IGX, and contains these sections:
This document uses the UFM-U card in the lab setups. Refer to the following for more Frame Relay card information:
-
The Components Used section of this document
-
The Line Interface Cards chapter of Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference, Release 9.3.0
The following illustration shows the UFM-U and UFM-C card lines, ports and connection devices:
Frame Relay ports are provided on UFM/UFM-U cards. There are two types of Frame Relay ports:
-
Physical—Frame Relay ports on UFM-U/FRM cards with V.35 or X.21 interfaces.
-
Logical—Frame Relay ports on UFM/FRM cards with T1 or E1 interfaces. Use the addport command to create logical ports.
Virtual Circuit Port Queuing
The following illustration shows VC port queueing:
You need to be aware of the following important port queuing tips:
-
The outbound frames pass through the port queues only.
-
The inbound frames pass through the VC queues only.
-
Port queues are in the egress direction—toward customer premises equipment (CPE).
-
The port queue provides traffic management from multiple virtual circuits on a single physical interface.
-
You can configure the following port queue parameters with the cnfport command:
-
Queue Depth—Determines the total number of bytes that are buffered by this port.
-
Discard Eligibility (DE) Threshold—Determines whether DE frames are dropped.
-
Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) Threshold—Determines whether frames are marked with Forward Explicit Congestion Notification (FECN) or Backward Explicit Congestion Notification (BECN).
-
Frame Relay Data Link Connection Identifiers
Each PVC between frame relay devices is locally assigned a data link connection identifier (DLCI) to differentiate between PVC termination on the same port.
You should be aware of the following when you assign a DLCI to a connection:
-
DLCIs are locally significant, except if you are using a global addressing scheme
-
DLCIs from 16 to 1007 are available for user services
-
Reserved DLCIs (0 to 15 and 1008 to 1023) are used for signaling protocols or other management functions
-
The maximum number of Frame Relay connections on a UFM is 1000
Locally significant DLCIs are generally used when provisioning Frame Relay PVCs. With locally significant DLCIs, the DLCI number is the local PVC identifier between the CPE and the switch. The DLCI number is not unique throughout the entire Frame Relay cloud (assuming more than one switch is being used to route the PVC).
Using a global addressing scheme, a unique identification number is assigned to each port in the network. Subsequently, PVCs are added with DLCIs chosen based on the port ID at each end. The DLCI assigned to each end of the PVC is made equal to the port ID of the port at the other end of the PVC. This numbering convention has the advantage that all frames submitted to the network with a given DLCI are delivered to the same port, regardless of their source.
Frame Relay Signaling
It is desirable to have some intelligent signaling protocol between the devices at either end of a frame relay link as the Local Management Interface (LMI). Signaling is used for the following purposes:
-
Status information to ensure the correct operation of each device.
-
Status information to ensure the correct operation of the link between the devices.
-
Administrative information such as the addition, deletion, or failure of one or more PVCs.
-
Flow control information to regulate the flow of traffic between devices to prevent or react to congestion.
The following signaling protocols are widely used:
-
Cisco/StrataCom—Uses DLCI 1023, UNI only.
-
ITU Q.933, Annex A—Uses DLCI 0, NNI or UNI.
-
ANSI T1.617, Annex D—Usess DLCI 0, NNI or UNI.
Note: The original LMI differs from ANSI to ITU-T in two ways:
-
The number of connections for LMI is limited to 992. ANSI and ITU-T are limited to 976.
-
LMI uses DLCI 1023. ANSI and ITU-T use DLCI 0.
UNI applications apply signaling conventions on a local interface between the user equipment and the network. The signaling is strictly unidirectional—only one device may request information from the other. The DTE (CPE side) is usually the interface, which performs all the status requests with the network side responding to the requests.
NNI is a bidirectional signaling protocol, typically used between different network providers. Using NNI enables control information and traffic to pass at the border of two networks (Provider A and B). Both networks send status inquiry frames, and both networks respond with short or long response frames.
Universal Frame Relay Module Mode Configuration
When configuring ATM-to-Frame Relay service interworking (SIW)/network interworking (NIW) connections, Frame Relay connections can take the transparent and translational modes.
In transparent mode, the Frame Relay header is stripped off and the data is sent transparently to the network as FastPackets. These FastPackets are usually encapsulated within ATM cells when traversing an ATM. This type of connection is used when the encapsulation method is compatible between the terminal equipment only.
In translational mode, the method for carrying multiple upper layer user protocols over a Frame Relay PVC is the RFC 1490 standard, and the method for carrying multiple upper layer user protocols over a Frame Relay ATM PVC is the RFC 1483 standard. The interworking function performs mapping between the two encapsulations, which supports the interworking of routed and bridged protocols.
Frame Relay Labs
This section provides basic lab setups, which demonstrate the Frame Relay information described in this document. The labs are based on UFM and UFMU cards, and the following connection types are demonstrated:

IGX ATM Configuration
This section describes ATM capabilities of the IGX switch. The UXM card is used as a UNI line connected to a pair of routers.
The ATM cell is 53 octets long and includes a 5-octet header with a 48 octet payload. An ATM cell is composed of the following:
-
Generic Flow Control (GFC):
-
In the UNI header, this is a 4-bit field that provides flow control information specific to a connection.
-
Applies to the UNI cell header and is not currently used.
-
-
Virtual Path Identifier (VPI):
-
A logical grouping of VCIs.
-
Allows an ATM switch to perform operations on groups of VCIs.
-
-
Virtual Circuit Identifier (VCI)—A logical identification for a virtual channel between two ATM entities.
-
Payload Type Identifier (PTI)—A 3-bit field that characterizes the information in the payload of the cell.
-
Cell Loss Priority (CLP):
-
Helps determine whether the cell is of normal or low priority.
-
Can be set by either CPE or network ATM switch.
-
Used to respond to congestion situations that can cause data loss.
-
-
Header Error Control (HEC)—An 8-bit CRC on the cell header only.
The following illustration shows the standard ATM cell format:
ATM Signaling
ATM signaling uses Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI), which enables devices to determine the status of components at the other end of a physical link and to negotiate a common set of operational parameters to ensure interoperability. ILMI operates over a reserved VCC of VPI = X, VCI = 16.
You can enable or disable ILMI—Cisco recommends that you enable it. Enabling ILMI allows the devices to determine the highest UNI interface level to operate (3.0, 3.1, 4.0), UNI vs. NNI, as well as numerous other elements. ILMI also allows devices to share information such as Network Service Access Point (NSAP) addresses, peer interface names, and IP addresses. Without ILMI many parameters must be manually configured for the ATM attached devices to operate correctly.
Operation, Administration, Maintenance Cells
Operation, administration, maintenance (OAM) cells carry standard management information between ATM devices. There are two basic types of OAM cells:
-
F4—Used for Virtual Path (VP) monitoring.
-
F5—Used for Virtual Circuit (VC) monitoring.
OAM traffic flows in two different ways:
-
End-to-End—Flow is between terminating equipment; OAM cells are not interpreted by the intermediate elements.
-
Segment—Flow is between two adjacent network elements (CPE and switch).
The following illustration shows OAM cells flowing in a network:
For F4 OAM cells, a VCI of 3 identifies Segment flow and a VCI of 4 identifies End-to-End flow.
F5 OAM cells use the PTI field to identify the flow control.
The PTI field is used to distinguish the various types of management cells and user cells found within the payload. The following table describes PTI field values:
| PTI Field Value (Bits) | Description |
|---|---|
| 000 | User data, no congestion, SDU type = 0 |
| 001 | User data, no congestion, SDU type = 1 |
| 010 | User data, congestion, SDU type = 0 |
| 011 | User data, congestion, SDU type = 1 |
| 100 | Congestion management, no congestion present, OAM F5 Segment to Segment cell |
| 101 | Congestion management, no congestion present, OAM F5 End to End cell |
| 110 | Reserved |
| 111 | Reserved |
ATM Traffic Classes
The IGX supports the following standard ATM traffic classes to meet ATM-standard Class of Service (CoS) requirements:
-
Constant Bit Rate (CBR)—Used for time-dependant constant range traffic such as uncompressed voice, video, or synchronous data. Most often, CBR connections carry cells created using AAL1. CBR connections have allowances for burstiness.
-
Real Time Variable Bit Rate (RT-VBR) and Nonreal Time Variable Bit Rate (NRT-VBR)—Used for bursty traffic that may have some time dependency such as compressed voice, video, or synchronous data. Traffic is permitted within set limitations. VBR connections can support any variable rate application, but are used most often with AAL5 cells.
RT-VBR is used for connections which require a fixed timing relationship between the source and the destination.
NRT-VBR is used for connections that do not require a fixed timing relationship, but still need a guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS). Traffic is permitted to burst within set limitations.
-
Available Bit Rate (ABR)—A variation on VBR; most commonly used for LAN-WAN services such as router traffic. ABR is used for connections that do not require a timing relationship between the source and destination.
ABR traffic, like VBR, supports variable rate applications. The added function of ABR connections is the ability to adjust the data rates in order to accommodate for congestion and bandwidth availability in the network. ABR connections are typically used to support AAL5 ATM cells.
-
Undefined Bit Rate (UBR)—Connections are variable rate connections without a guaranteed service rate. If there is congestion or no available bandwidth, a UBR connection is not given bandwidth in the network. UBR connections are used for variable rate applications that are tolerant of zero-transmission periods such as batch processed email or LAN Emulation (LANE).
-
Separately-configurable CoS buffers (Qbins) and Port Queuing—Qbins store cells and serve them to an interface based on bandwidth availability and CoS priority. For example, if CBR and ABR cells must exit the switch from the same interface, but the interface is already transmitting CBR cells from another source, the newly-arrived CBR and ABR cells are held in the Qbin associated with that interface. As the interface becomes accessible, the Qbin passes CBR cells to the interface for transmission. After the CBR cells have been transmitted, the ABR cells are passed to the interface and transmitted to their destination.
The following illustration shows UXM Virtual Interfaces and Qbins:
The following illustration shows ATM cell flow:
Configurable parameters:
-
VC Queue Depth—Determines the depth of the queue. If the Qbin exceeds the defined queue size, all arriving cells are dropped.
-
Explicit Forward Congestion Indication (EFCI) Threshold—Determines congestion marking. When the Qbin reaches the EFCI threshold, all arriving cells into the Qbin have the EFCI bit set to 1, which notifies the CPE of congestion in the network.
-
CLP High Threshold—Determines when to start dropping CLP tagged cells. When the Qbin reaches the CLP high threshold, all arriving cells with the CLP bit tagged (set to 1) are dropped. Any cells already in Qbin, regardless of CLP bit, are not dropped.
-
