How to Standardize the Framing Configuration on an ATM Link

The framing configuration must be the same in all boxes on the ATM link if you have an ATM link that is connected by PVCs over DS3 or E3 cabling.

Use these guidelines in order to standardize the framing configuration on the ATM link:

Product

Access Speed

Framing/Action

Cisco 7000 or 7500 with an AIP module

DS3

Framing is set to the default, C-bit PLCP, and cannot be changed. Set all other ATM devices to default framing. Use the command:

  • atm framing cbitplcp

Cisco 7000 or 7500 with an AIP module

E3

Framing options: G.823 ATM Direct Mapping framing or no framing. Use one of these commands:

  • atm framing g832adm

  • no atm framing g832adm

Cisco 4500 or 4700 with an NPM

DS3

Use one of these commands in order to configure framing:

  • atm framing m23adm

  • atm framing cbitplcp

  • atm framing m23plcp

  • no atm framing

Cisco 4500 or 4700 with an NPM

E3

Use one of these commands in order to configure framing:

  • atm framing g832adm

  • atm framing g751adm

  • no atm framing

Lightstream 100 ATM Switch

DS3 or E3

Use the command:

  • set interface [p1] [p2] [p3] [p4] [p5] [p6] [p7] [p8]

where p7 is the framing parameter. A value of 0 for the framing parameter configures G.751 PLCP (default) framing, and a value of 1 configures G.804 Direct Mapping framing. For the other seven parameters, use the values for the link that you get when you issue a set interface command.

Lightstream 1010 ATM Switch

DS3

Use one of these commands in order to configure framing:

  • framing m23adm

  • framing m23plcp

  • framing cbitadm

  • framing cbitplcp

Use this command in order to configure default framing:

  • framing cbitplcp

Lightsteam 1010 ATM Switch

E3

Use one of these commands in order to configure framing:

  • framing g832adm

  • framing g751adm

  • framing g751plcp

Use this command in order to configure default framing:

  • framing g751plcp
