Selecting a Port SCT
A port SCT defines queue parameters that apply to egress queues on a port. You can use the same port
SCT for multiple ports. To select an SCT for a port, enter the addport command as described in the
“Adding ATM Ports” section in Chapter 6, “Provisioning AXSM Communication Links.”
Note An SCT must reside in your switch F:/SCT directory before you can select it for a card or port. For
instructions on manually downloading and installing SCTs to your switch, see “Installing SCT Files” in
Appendix A, “Downloading and Installing Software Upgrades.”
