ATLAS 800 Series System Manual Packet Manager
Packet Cncts
Endpt Count Read security: 5
Displays the total number of packet endpoints configured.
Endpts Sort Provides sorting options for the packet endpoints. Sorting By Name sorts packet
endpoints alphabetically by name. If you do not want to sort packet endpoints,
set this option to Off.

After packet endpoints are defined, they are connected in the packet connects (PACKET CNCTS) map.
PACKET CNCTS connects upper layer protocols from packet endpoint to packet endpoint. You can think of it
as a dedicated map for virtual ports rather than physical ports.
From: PEP Selects one packet endpoint for the packet connection. Packet endpoints created
in the packet endpoint configuration are visible on a pull-down menu which
includes the
ROUTER option. This router is the internal ATLAS 800 Series router
and can be used multiple times within the
PACKET CNCTS menu.
Sublink If the packet endpoint selected in FROM: PEP supports sublinks, they are
available in this menu. In Frame Relay, this is the PVC from which you are
selecting to groom data.
To: PEP Selects the other packet endpoint for the packet connection. Refer to FROM: PEP
above for more detail.
Sublink If the TO: PEP packet endpoint supports sublinks, the available sublinks are
shown within this menu, which includes the
ROUTER option.
Protocol Selects the protocols for this packet connection. Selecting the protocols on each
individual connection allows the mixing of data from multiple sources onto a
single PVC. Available protocols include the following:
ALL, IP, BRIDGE IP,
P
ACKET VOICE, SNA, SNAP, and TRANSPARENT PROTOCOLS (TBOP and
TASYNC).
If ALL is selected, additional connections from that PVC are not allowed.
If R
OUTER is selected as one packet endpoint, IP is automatically set as the PROTOCOL.
If a TBOP packet endpoint is selected as one packet endpoint, T
RANSPARENT is
automatically set as the P
ROTOCOL.
Config Determines data source and destination. The protocol selected determines which
of the following options are available:
