The subcommands fall into several categories: Interface management subcommands allow manipulation of the ATM inter- face. Functions include assigning a signalling manager to an inter- face, setting the ATM address, associating network interfaces with an interface, and displaying information about interfaces. VCC management subcommands allow for managing ATM virtual channel con- nections (VCCs). Functions include opening and closing VCCs and dis- playing information about them. IP management subcommands allow for managing the interface between IP and the ATM software. Functions include displaying and manipulating the ATMARP cache, opening a PVC connected to IP, assigning an ATMARP server to a network interface, and displaying information about IP VCCs. Miscellaneous subcommands allow for displaying the version of the ATM software and for getting help with the atm command. Signalling Managers The signalling manager is responsible for the opening and closing of VCCs. Four signalling managers are supported: PVC - for PVCs only, SPANS - supports SPANS, FORE's proprietary signalling protocol, UNI 3.0 - supports the signalling protocol from The ATM Forum's ATM User-Network Interface Specification, Version 3.0. UNI 3.1 - supports the signalling protocol from The ATM Forum's ATM User-Network Interface Specification, Version 3.1. All four signalling managers support the opening and closing of PVCs (see the add and delete subcommands). A signalling manager must be attached to a physical interface (see the attach subcommand) before any VCCs can be created on the interface. Physical and Network Interfaces Two types of interfaces are supported: physical interfaces and network interfaces. A physical interface represents a physical point of at- tachment to an ATM network. A physical interface has an ATM address associated with it, except when the PVC-only signalling manager is be- ing used. A network interface is a logical interface. One or more network inter- faces are associated with a physical interface; each network interface has an IP address associated with it. For UNI-controlled interfaces, there can be up to 256 network interfaces associated with a physical interface. In this case, the correspondence between the network inter- face and the ATM address is determined by the selector field (the last byte) of the physical interface's ATM address. For PVC-only inter- faces, there can be up to 256 logical interfaces associated with each physical interface. For interfaces controlled by the SPANS signalling manager, there must be one and only one network interface associated with each physical interface. Keyword and Documentation Conventions Command and subcommand keywords can be abbreviated by simply giving enough of the first part of the keyword to make it unique. Thus, atm sh v gives the same result as atm show vcc. All keywords are case-insensitive. Where a host address needs to be given to the atm command, either a DNS name or an IP address in dotted decimal format can be used. ATM addresses are specified as strings of hex digits, with an optional leading "0x". Fields within the address may be separated by periods, but periods are for readability only and are ignored. SPANS addresses are 8 bytes long, while NSAP-format addresses are 20 bytes long. The full address, including any leading zeroes, must be given. For exam- ple: 0x47.0005.80.ffe100.0000.f21a.0170.0020481a0170.00 (NSAP format) 0x00000010.f2050aa9 (SPANS format) SUBCOMMANDS Interface Management Subcommands: atm add PVC _interface_ _vpi_ _vci_ _aal_ _encaps_ _owner_ ... the format of the add PVC subcommand varies depending on the owner of the PVC. See the description under "IP Management Subcommands." atm attach _interface_ _sigmgr_ where: _interface_ specifies the physical interface to which the sig- nalling manager is to be attached, _sigmgr_ specifies which signalling manager is to be attached. Valid choices are "SIGPVC", "SPANS", "UNI30", and "UNI31". This command attaches a signalling manager to an interface. Until this is done, VCCs cannot be opened or closed. Only one signalling manager at a time can be attached to an interface. atm detach _interface_ where: _interface_ specifies the physical interface whose signalling man- ager is to be detached. This command detaches a signalling manager from an interface. All VCCs that the signalling manager has created will be closed, and no new VCCs can be created until a signalling manager (either the same or a differ- ent one) is attached again. atm set MAC _interface_ _MAC/ESI address_ where: _interface_ specifies the physical interface whose MAC address is to be set, _MAC/ESI address_ specifies the 6-byte MAC part of the NSAP ad- dress for the interface. The MAC address is specified as a string of 12 hexadecimal digits with an optional leading "0x". Fields in the address may be separated by periods. This command sets the MAC address for a UNI-controlled interface. The first 13 bytes (the prefix) of the 20-byte NSAP-format address are set by the atm set prefix command or the ILMI daemon (ilmid (8)), the next 6 bytes (the End System Identifier (ESI)) are set by this command, and the last byte (the selector) will be determined by which network inter- face is to be associated with the address. The atm set MAC command can be used to override the MAC address in the interface hardware. atm set netif _interface_ _prefix_ _count_ where: _interface_ specifies the physical interface that the network in- terface(s) are to be associated with, _prefix_ specifies the invariant part of the network interface name, _count_ specifies the number of network interface to be created. This command creates one or more network interfaces and associates them with the specified physical interface. The network interface names are determined by the prefix and the count. The names will be of the form <prefix><nn>, where <prefix> is the prefix specified in the set subcom- mand and <nn> is a number in the range 0 - <count>-1. For example, the command: atm set netif hfa0 ni 2 would create two network interfaces, named ni0 and ni1, and associate them with physical interface hfa0. atm set prefix _interface_ _NSAP prefix_ where: _interface_ specifies the physical interface whose NSAP prefix is to be set, _NSAP prefix_ specifies the first 13 bytes of the NSAP address for the interface. The prefix is specified as a string of hexa- decimal digits with an optional leading "0x". Fields in the prefix may be separated by periods. This command sets the address for a UNI-controlled interface. The first 13 bytes (the prefix) of the 20-byte NSAP-format address are set by this command, the next 6 bytes (the End System Identifier (ESI)) will be the MAC address taken from the physical interface or set by the set MAC subcommand, and the last byte (the selector) will be determined by which network interface is to be associated with the address. The NSAP prefix must be set before a UNI-controlled interface can be- come active. This can be accomplished either by the ILMI daemon (ilmid (8)) or the set prefix subcommand. atm show config [_interface_] displays the following information: Interface - the name of the physical interface. Vendor - the name of the adapter vendor. Model - the model of the adapter. Media - the communications medium used by the adapter. Bus - the type of bus the adapter is attached to. Serial No. - the adapter's serial number. MAC address - the MAC address of the interface. Note that this is the MAC address encoded in the hardware of the adapter, even if the atm set MAC command has been used to change the effective MAC address of the interface. Hardware version - the hardware revision level reported by the inter- face. Firmware version - the firmware revision level reported by the inter- face. If no parameters are specified on the show config subcommand, the con- figurations of all physical interfaces will be displayed. If an inter- face name is specified, only the configuration of the given interface is displayed. atm show interface [_interface_] displays the following information: Interface - the name of the physical interface. Sigmgr - the name of the signalling manager which has been attached to the interface. A dash (-) is shown if no signalling manager has been attached. State - the state of the signalling manager for the interface. Each signalling manager has its own set of states. They are: PVC: ACTIVE --- The signalling manager is active. DETACH --- The signalling manager is being detached. SPANS: ACTIVE --- The signalling manager is active. DETACH --- The signalling manager is being detached. INIT ----- The signalling manager's initial state. PROBE ---- The signalling manager is attempting to make con- tact with the ATM switch. UNI 3.0 or UNI 3.1: NULL ----- The signalling manager's initial state. ADR_WAIT - The signalling manager is waiting for the NSAP prefix to be set. INIT ----- The signalling manager is attempting to establish contact with the switch. ACTIVE --- The signalling manager is active. DETACH --- The signalling manager is being detached. ATM address - the ATM address of the interface. Network interfaces - the names of network interfaces, if any, associ- ated with the physical interface. If no parameters are specified on the show interface subcommand, infor- mation about all physical interfaces will be displayed. If an inter- face name is specified, only information about the given interface is displayed. atm show netif [_netif_] displays the following information: Net Intf - the name of the network interface. IP Address - the IP address of the network interface. If no parameters are specified on the show netif subcommand, informa- tion about all network interfaces will be displayed. If an interface name is specified, only information about the given network interface is displayed. atm show stats interface [_interface_ [phy | dev | atm | aal0 | aal4 | aal5 | driver]] displays statistics associated with one or more interfaces. Subject- area keywords (phy, dev, atm, aal0, aal4, aal5, or driver) can be spec- ified to change the scope of the statistics displayed. If no subject area keyword is specified, the following information is displayed: Interface - the name of the physical ATM interface. Input PDUs - the number of Protocol Data Units (PDUs) which have been received by the interface. Input Bytes - the number of bytes which have been received by the in- terface. Input Errs - the number of input errors which the interface has experi- enced. Output PDUs - the number of Protocol Data Units (PDUs) which have been transmitted by the interface. Output Bytes - the number of bytes which have been transmitted by the interface. Output Errs - the number of output errors which the interface has expe- rienced. Cmd Errs - the number of command errors which the interface has experi- enced. If a subject-area keyword is specified, then statistics for that sub- ject are displayed. The statistics displayed depend on the adapter. If requested statistics are not available for an adaptor, an error will be noted. If no parameters are specified on the show stats interface subcommand, statistics for all ATM interfaces are displayed. If an interface name is specified, only statistics for the given interface are displayed. VCC Management Subcommands: atm delete PVC _interface_ _vpi_ _vci_ atm delete SVC _interface_ _vpi_ _vci_ where: PVC specifies that the VCC to be closed is a PVC, SVC specifies that the VCC to be closed is an SVC, _interface_ specifies the physical interface at which the VCC to be closed terminates, _vpi_ specifies the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) of the VCC, _vci_ specifies the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) of the VCC. This command closes a VCC. The two forms differ only in that the first specifies that the VCC is a PVC (that was created by the add PVC sub- command) and the second specifies that the VCC is an SVC. Reserved VCCs (with VCI values less than 32) cannot be closed with this command. atm show stats VCC [_interface_ [_vpi_ [_vci_]]] displays the following information: Interface - the physical interface on which the VCC terminates. VPI - the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) for the VCC. VCI - the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) for the VCC. Input PDUs - the number of Protocol Data Units (PDUs) which have been received on the VCC. Input Bytes - the number of bytes which have been received on the VCC. Input Errs - the number of input errors which the VCC has experienced. Output PDUs - the number of Protocol Data Units (PDUs) which have been transmitted on the VCC. Output Bytes - the number of bytes which have been transmitted on the VCC. Output Errs - the number of output errors which the VCC has experi- enced. If no parameters are specified on the show VCC subcommand, all active VCCs are displayed. If an interface name is specified, all active VCCs for the given interface are displayed. If an interface and VPI are specified, all active VCCs for the VPI on the given interface are dis- played. If an interface, VPI, and VCI are specified, only the speci- fied VCC on the given interface is displayed (note that this could ac- tually be two VCCs, since SPANS considers SVCs to be unidirectional). atm show VCC [_interface_ [_vpi_ [_vci_] | SVC | PVC]] displays the following information: Interface - the physical interface on which the VCC terminates. VPI - the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) for the VCC. VCI - the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) for the VCC. AAL - the ATM Adaptation Layer (AAL) in use on the VCC. Possible val- ues are null and AAL 1-5. Type - specifies whether the VCC is an SVC or a PVC. Dir - the direction of information flow on the VCC. VCCs can be in- bound, outbound, or both. State - the state of the VCC, as reported by the signalling manager. Each signalling manager has its own set of states. They are: PVC: NULL ----- No state. ACTIVE --- The VCC is active.

CONN_REQ - A VCC request has been accepted by a HARP user. C_IN_PR -- An incoming VCC request is proceeding. ACTIVE --- The VCC is active. REL_REQ -- The VCC is being closed. REL_IND -- The network is clearing a VCC. SSCF_REC - The SSCF session on the signalling channel is in recovery from an error. FREE ----- The VCC is closed and the signalling manager is waiting for its resources to be freed. ACT_DOWN - The VCC is a PVC and the interface is down. Encaps - the encapsulation in effect on the VCC. Possible encapsula- tions are null and LLC/SNAP. Owner - the owner or owners of the VCC. Shows the name(s) of the func- tion(s) using the VCC. Destination - the ATM address of the host at the remote end of the VCC. If no parameters are specified on the show VCC subcommand, all active VCCs are displayed. If an interface name is specified, all active VCCs for the given interface are displayed. If an interface and VPI are specified, all active VCCs for the VPI on the given interface are dis- played. If an interface, VPI, and VCI are specified, only the speci- fied VCC on the given interface is displayed (note that this could ac- tually be two VCCs, since SPANS considers SVCs to be unidirectional). IP Management Subcommands: atm add ARP [_netif_] _host_ _ATM address_ where: _netif_ is the optional name of the network interface the ATMARP entry is to be associated with. If no name is specified, a network interface is chosen depending on the IP address of the host being added. _host_ is the host name or IP address of the host to be added to the ATMARP table, _ATM address_ is the ATM address of the host. This command adds an entry to the ATMARP table for ATM. The given host's IP address is associated with the given ATM address. When IP needs to transmit data to the host, the specified ATM address will be used to open an SVC. The entry will be marked as permanent in the ATMARP table and will not be subject to aging. atm add PVC _interface_ _vpi_ _vci_ _aal_ _encaps_ IP _netif_ [_host_ | dynamic] _traffic_ _params..._ where: _interface_ specifies the physical interface where the PVC is to terminate, _vpi_ specifies the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) of the PVC, _vci_ specifies the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) of the PVC, _aal_ specifies the ATM Adaptation Layer (AAL) for the PVC. Valid choices are "null" or "AAL0" for the null AAL; "AAL1" for AAL 1; "AAL2" for AAL 2; "AAL3", "AAL4", or "AAL3/4" for AAL 3/4; and "AAL5" for AAL 5, _encaps_ specifies the encapsulation for the PVC. Valid choices are "null" or "none" for null encapsulation, and "LLC/SNAP", "LLC", or "SNAP" for LLC/SNAP encapsulation, IP specifies that the owner of the PVC is IP. _netif_ specifies the network interface which the PVC is to be as- sociated with. The network interface must exist and be asso- ciated with the specified physical interface, _host_ | dynamic gives the address of the host at the far end of the PVC, or the word "dynamic" if its address is to be deter- mined with Inverse ARP. If "dynamic" is specified, LLC/SNAP encapsulation must also be specified. _traffic_ is the traffic type of the PVC and may be one of UBR, CBR or VBR. Following the traffic type the traffic parame- ters must be given. For UBR and CBR this is the peak cell rate and for VBR these are the peak and sustainable cell rate and the maximum burst size. This command creates a PVC with the specified attributes and attaches it to IP. atm delete ARP [_netif_] _host_ where: _netif_ is the optional name of the network interface the ATMARP entry is associated with. If no name is specified, the spec- ified host is deleted from the cache regardless of what net- work interface it is associated with. _host_ is the host name or IP address of the host to be deleted from the ATMARP table. This command deletes the specified host's entry from the ATMARP table. atm set arpserver _netif_ _ATM address_ | local [_IP prefix_ ...] where: _netif_ specifies the network interface for which the ATMARP server address is to be set. _ATM address_ specifies the ATM address of the host which is to provide ATMARP service. If "local" is specified instead of an ATM address, the host on which the command is issued will become the ATMARP server. _IP prefix_ ... is an optional list of IP prefixes that the ATMARP server will provide information about. An IP prefix is spec- ified as a dotted decimal IP address, followed by a slash, followed a number specifying how many bits of the IP address are significant. For example, 10.0.0.0/8 indicates that the ATMARP server will provide services for all addresses on IP network 10. The IP subnetwork which the network interface belongs to is automatically included. This command sets the address of the ATMARP server for a network inter- face. atm show ARP [_host_] displays the following information: Net Intf - the network interface which traffic for the entry will use. Flags - flags showing whether the entry is valid and whether it is per- manent. - flags giving further information about the ATMARP entry. The meanings of the characters in the flags are: P - the entry is permanent R - the entry has been refreshed V - the entry is valid Age - the number of minutes for which the entry will remain valid. Origin - the source of the ATMARP entry. Possible values are: LOCAL ---- The entry is for an interface on the host. PERM ----- The entry is permanent. This is used for entries that are created with the add ARP command. REG ------ The entry was created as the result of a host register- ing with the ATMARP server. SCSP ----- The entry was learned via SCSP. LOOKUP --- The entry was created as the result of a host perform- ing an ATMARP lookup. PEER_RSP - The entry was created as the result of a host answering an InARP Request. PEER_REQ - The entry was created as the result of a host sending an InARP Request. ATM address - the ATM address of the host the entry refers to. IP address - the IP address or domain name of the host the entry refers to. If no parameters are specified on the show ARP subcommand, the whole ATMARP table will be displayed. If a host name or IP address is speci- fied, only information about the given host is displayed. This command displays both information that has been learned dynami- cally (through one form or another of ATMARP and via SCSP) and informa- tion which has been configured by the user (through the add ARP subcom- mand). atm show arpserver [_netif_] displays the following information: Net Intf - the network interface for which information is being dis- played. State - the state of the connection to the ATMARP server. Possible values are: NOT_CONF - No ATMARP server has been configured for the interface. SERVER --- The host is the ATMARP server. PEND_ADR - No ATM address has been set for the interface. POPEN ---- The host is attempting to open a VCC to the ATMARP server. REGISTER - The host has a VCC open to the ATMARP server and is in the process of registering with the server. ACTIVE --- The ATMARP server connection is active. ATM Address - the ATM address of the ATMARP server. If no parameters are specified on the show arpserver subcommand, the ATMARP servers for all network interfaces will be displayed. If an in- terface name is specified, only information about the given network in- terface is displayed. atm show IPVCC [_host_ | _netif_] displays the following information: Net Intf - the name of the network interface at which the VCC termi- nates. VPI - the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) for the VCC. VCI - the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) for the VCC. State - the state of the VCC. Possible values are: PMAP ---- The host has an IP packet to send and is waiting for an ATMARP mapping. POPEN --- The VCC is being opened. PACCEPT - A VCC from a remote host is being accepted. ACTPENT - A PVC is open, but no ATMARP information is available for it yet. ACTIVE -- The VCC is active. Flags - flags giving further information about the VCC. The meanings of the characters in the flags are: S - the VCC is an SVC P - the VCC is a PVC L - the VCC uses LLC/SNAP encapsulation M - the IP-to-ATM address mapping for the VCC is valid N - there is no idle timeout for the VCC IP Address - the name and IP address of the host at the remote end of the VCC. If no parameters are specified on the show IPVCC subcommand, all active VCCs are displayed. If a host name is specified, the active VCC(s) for the given host are displayed. If a network interface name is speci- fied, the active VCC(s) for the given network interface are displayed.
