atmsetup(8) System Manager's Manual atmsetup(8) NAME
atmsetup - Configures Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) adapters and services SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/atmsetup [-old] OPTIONS
Invokes the atmsetup script. This option is for backward compatibility, and will be removed in a future release. DESCRIPTION
The atmsetup command by default invokes the SysMan ATM Configuration application. This application enables you to configure and run ATM on your system. Specifically, you can configure network adapters and logical interfaces on the adapters for the following environments: Clas- sical IP, LAN Emulation, and IP Switching. Compaq recommends you use the SysMan application. Note Support for IP Switching will be retired in a future release. Do not use it to develop new applications. During the adapter configuration, you specify the adapter name, the Endpoint System Identifiers (ESIs), pacing options, the type of network physical layer, and whether to enable flow control, Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI), signaling, and virtual circuit (VC) accounting. In addition, you specify the User-Network Interface (UNI) version. During logical interface configuration, you specify information related to each ATM environment. For Classical IP, you choose whether the system is an ATMARP client or server and whether to configure permanent virtual circuits (PVCs). For LAN Emulation, you choose which emu- lated LAN to join and how to join the emulated LAN. For IP Switching, you specify the Subnetwork Attachment Point (SNAP) VCI number and VCI limits. In all three cases, you change only those default values that your configuration requires. See Asynchronous Transfer Mode for information on configuring ATM and the ATM configuration application online help for more information. Before invoking the atmsetup command, make sure that your system is connected to a switch, the network software is configured and running, ATM is configured into the kernel, and the ATM subsets are installed. After running atmsetup, you must configure the ATM interfaces with the correct IP address and netmask. Select Configure Interfaces from the SysMan menu. See sysman(8) for more information. atmsetup Script If you specify the -old option, the atmsetup script is invoked. This script prompts you for all information that you need to enter in order to configure ATM. The script creates and maintains a directory hierarchy /etc/atm, which contains all the ATM configuration information. The atmsetup script configures the driver and signaling on an ATM end system. In addition, you can configure your system to operate in a Classical IP or Local Area Network (LAN) emulation environment. See Asynchronous Transfer Mode for additional information on configuring ATM on your system. RESTRICTIONS
You must be superuser to use this command. The atmsetup script (-old option) has the following restrictions: You can configure only lis interfaces to support SVCs and elan inter- faces. It supports boot-time configuration only. FILES

atmifmp(8) System Manager's Manual atmifmp(8) NAME
atmifmp - Configures the ATM subsystem for switching IP traffic only SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/atmifmp command arguments Arguments can appear in any order after the command. All required arguments must be specified. OPTIONS
This section is organized by the tasks you can perform with the atmifmp command. Each task subsection provides the atmifmp command syntax and the options to use to complete the tasks. Enabling IP Switching Syntax: /usr/sbin/atmifmp attach ips=num driver=name [snapvci=vci] [rxmin=vci] [rxmax=vci] [txmin=vci] [txmax=vci] Creates a point-to-point, multicast-capable virtual interface on a driver as specified in the next two arguments. If the virtual interface already exists but is not currently attached (because it was previously attached and detached), the command creates an association between the virtual interface and the specified driver. The attach command also configures the Virtual Circuit Identifier (VCI) ranges available to the IP switching module (VPI 0 is assumed). VCs used by the IP switching module are unidirectional. After the ips interface is attached, you must configure the interface using the ifconfig(8) command, specifying the source address of the host and destination address of the IP switch or another host associated with the point-to-point interface. Specifies the ips interface number to create. Specifies the ATM driver associated with the virtual interface. Specifies the VCI number that Ipsilon Flow Management Protocol (IFMP) uses as the default SNAP VCI. The default VCI is 15. This number must match the VCI number used by IFMP on the destination host or switch associated with the point-to-point interface. Specifies the smallest VCI number that can be used for receiving IP switching traffic. The default value is the driver's minimum VCI value. Specifies the largest VCI num- ber that can be used for receiving IP switching traffic. The default value is the driver's maximum VCI value. Specifies the small- est VCI number that can be used for transmitting IP switching traffic. The default value is the driver's minimum VCI value. Speci- fies the largest VCI number that can be used for transmitting IP switching traffic. The default value is the driver's maximum VCI value. Disabling IP Switching Syntax: /usr/sbin/atmifmp detach ips=num Disassociates the virtual interface, ipsnum, from the driver to which it was previously attached. Prior to detaching the interface, you must delete the ips interface's address and bring down the the ips interface using the ifconfig(8) command. Specifies the ips interface. Displaying IP Switching Configuration Syntax: atmifmp showips [ips=num] Displays the state of all ips interfaces, unless an interface is specified by the next argument. Information displayed includes the inter- face attachment state, the driver to which the interface is attached, the default SNAP VC, the interface and driver receive/transmit/mini- mum/maximum VC ranges, and IFMP and Flow configuration information. Specifies the ips interface. Displaying or Clearing IP Switching Statistics Syntax: /usr/sbin/atmifmp stats [ips=num] [clear] Displays the flow and IFMP statistics for all ips interfaces, unless an interface is specified by the next argument. Specifies the ips interface. Zeros the flow and IFMP statistics for all ips interfaces, unless an interface is specified. Statistics are displayed after they are cleared. Displaying IP Switching Flow Information Syntax: /usr/sbin/atmifmp flows [ips=num] [long] Displays flows created by the IP switching module on all interfaces, unless an interface is specified by the next argument. Information displayed for each flow includes the Flow ID, the transmit or receive VC associated with the Flow, the Flow Type, the number of packets sent or received, and VC aging information. Specifies the ips interface. Displays additional information about each flow, such as the information encoded in the Flow ID. DESCRIPTION
The atmifmp command enables and disables IP switching on a Tru64 UNIX end system that has an attached ATMworks ATM adapter. The IP switch- ing architecture is based on the Ipsilon Networks, Inc. reference model, and enables you to configure the Tru64 UNIX ATM subsystem to sup- port only IP traffic over an ATM network. The IFMP protocol associates an ATM virtual circuit with an IP data flow. RESTRICTIONS
If an ips interface is attached to a specific ATM adapter on your system, you cannot use that adapter to run ATM Forum protocols (UNI sig- naling, Classical IP, or Local Area Network Emulation (LANE)). Multiple adapters are required. SEE ALSO
