NAME
atmconf - Interphase 5515 ATM RFC-1577 client and signal daemon
configuration file.
DESCRIPTION
The atmconf.x file is used to store ATM driver signaling and RFC-1577
configuration parameters and is read by both ipatmconfig and signald.
The file name suffix x is the link number (also known as the adapter
instance). Valid values of link number are 0 to 7, inclusive. There
is a separate configuration file for each link (adapter) in a system.
The format of the file with some sample values is shown below:
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# The following parameters are read by signald and, therefore,
# pertain to both Classical IP and LANE.
ilmi:1
ilmiprefix:39000000000000000000000000
maxberate:149
unirev:30
# ---------------------------------------------------------------
# The following parameters are read by ipatmconf and pertain only to
# Classical IP.
arpprefix:47000580ffe1000000f21a2054
arpesisel:0020481a205400
arpipaddr:96.0.0.1
arpipmask:255.0.0.0
clientipaddr:96.0.0.145
The following parameters are supported:
ilmi The ilmi parameter can have two values: 0 and 1. If the value
is 0, then ILMI is disabled. Otherwise, ilmi is enabled and
the network prefix will be obtained from the switch. This
parameter is read by both ipatmconfig and signald and is
therefore pertinent to both RFC 1577 (Classical IP) and LANE
(LAN Emulation).
ilmiprefix
If ilmi is disabled, this parameter determines what network
prefix will be used. The value is specified as a sequence of
13 hexadecimal octets. Each digit is significant and all 13
octets must be present. This parameter is read by both
ipatmconfig and signald and is therefore pertinent to both RFC
1577 (Classical IP) and LANE (LAN Emulation).
maxberate
Some switches cannot accept Best Effort connection at the full
interface line rate. In addition, you may desire to configure
an interface to run at less than the maximum line rate. This
3 byte parameter is used to set the maximum cell rate in cells
per second, a parameter that is used in signaling LAN
Emulation connections. This parameter is read by both
ipatmconfig and signald and is therefore pertinent to both RFC
1577 (Classical IP) and LANE (LAN Emulation).
unirev is used to specify the UNI signaling standard to be used. The
valid choices are 30 for UNI 3.0 signaling or 31 for UNI 3.1
signaling. The default is UNI 3.0 signaling. This parameter
is read by both ipatmconfig and signald and is therefore
pertinent to both RFC 1577 (Classical IP) and LANE (LAN
Emulation).
arpprefix
The RFC-1577 ARP Server ATM address will depend on what the
network prefix of the switch the ARP Server is connected to.
If the ARP Server is connected to the same switch as the end
system, then this value will be the same as the end system's
network prefix. The network prefix can be determined from the
ATM switch's configuration. This parameter is read only by
ipatmconfig and is therefore pertinent only to RFC 1577
(Classical IP).
arpesisel
The RFC-1577 ARP Server ESI/SEL address will depend on what
the cards MAC address of six bytes plus the selector value.
The SEL value can be any value from 00 to FF but must match
the what the client will use. This means that all clients and
the server must have the same values for arpprefix and
arpesisel. This parameter is read only by ipatmconfig and is
therefore pertinent only to RFC 1577 (Classical IP).
arpipaddr
The RFC-1577 ARP Server IP address will depend on what network
subnet this server belongs to. This parameter is read only by
ipatmconfig and is therefore pertinent only to RFC 1577
(Classical IP).
arpipmask
The RFC-1577 ARP Server IP mask will depend on what network
subnet this server belongs to. This parameter is read only by
ipatmconfig and is therefore pertinent only to RFC 1577
(Classical IP).
clientipaddr
The RFC-1577 Client IP address will depend on what network
subnet this client belongs to. This IP address should belong
to the same subnet the server is connected. This parameter is
read only by ipatmconfig and is therefore pertinent only to
RFC 1577 (Classical IP).
Note At this time all IP addresses must be in dot notation and will
not accept hostnames.
