Chapter 3 Provisioning ATM Services
Quickstart Provisioning Procedures
AINI Link Configuration Quickstart
The following procedure provides a summary of the tasks required to configure ATM Inter-Network
Interface (AINI) links on an AXSM card. This procedure is provided as an overview and as a quick
reference for those who have previously configured these types of connections.
Note AINI is a protocol designed to replace the function of IISP. Unless you are configuring a link with
another switch that does not support AINI, you should configure an AINI link instead of an IISP link.
IISP links provide fewer capabilities than AINI links. For example, IISP links cannot support UNI V4.0
connections.
Step 8
cnfpnportsig
uppnport
Related commands:
dsppnports
dsppnport
dsppnportsig
Configure the signaling protocol used on the trunk by setting the
-nniver option to pnni10.
See the “Selecting the Port Signaling Protocol” section on
page 3-44.
Step 9
cc Change back to the AXSM card.
Step 10
upilmi
cnfilmi
Related commands:
dspports
dspilmis
Configure and start ILMI on the trunk. ILMI is required on the
BXM end of the trunk, so it must be enabled on the AXSM side
too.
See the “Configuring ILMI on a Port” section on page 3-47.
Step 11
cc Change to the PXM card.
Step 12
dsppnni-link
dsppnni-neighbor
When both ends of the link are configured, verify the PNNI
communications between the two ends. In the dsppnni-link
report, there should be an entry for the port for which you are
verifying communications.
The reported Hello state should be twoWayInside and the Remote
node ID should display the remote node ATM address after the
second colon.
See the “Verifying PNNI Trunk Communication” section on
page 4-52.
