atmconfig is a tool to display and modify the current FORE
IP configuration. If no action is indicated for the specified
device, the configuration information for the device is
displayed. Configuration information includes the interface
MTU, the peak rate used by SVCs, and the VC parameters for
the FORE IP connectionless and SPANS signaling VCs.
- -q
- Set/disable SVC rate shaping on the specified device.
The peak rate is specified in kilobits per second.
- -c
- Set FORE IP connectionless VC parameters for the given
device. The connectionless VC will use VPI vpi, VCI
vci, and AAL type aal. If peak is specified, traffic
sent on the VC will be shaped to peak kilobits per
second.
- -s
- Set SPANS signaling VC parameters for the given device.
The signaling VC will use VPI vpi, VCI vci, and
AAL type aal. If peak is specified, traffic sent on the
VC will be shaped to peak kilobits per second.
The allowed values for vpi, vci, aal, and peak will depend
on the capabilities of the ATM adapter used by the given
interface. In addition, certain adapters may only support
discrete peak cell rates. If so, the rate will be set to
the closest supported rate which is less than the specified
rate.
The use of SVC rate control limits the peak bandwidth of all
SVC traffic from the specified interface. If the peak rate
is modified or disabled, the connections must be torn down
(see na_atmarp (1)) and re-established for the new rate to
take effect. SH CLUSTER CONSIDERATIONS
In takeover mode, the ForeIP/SPANS interface names are those
on the live filer, and in partner mode the interface names
are those on the failed filer.
