This command allows a user to display and modify the current
configuration of an ATM device. If no action is
indicated for the specified device, the configuration
information for the device is displayed.
The physical media device (PMD) configuration displayed
includes the current framing used, the device clock
source, the loopback state, the state of frame and stream
scrambling, and the cell insertion type.
- -p
- Specifies the number of least-significant bits to
match in the VPI field of the ATM cell header. The
number of VCI bits is computed automatically based
upon the number of VPI bits specified and the total
number of VPI/VCI bits supported by the adapter.
- -l
- Enable/Disable PMD internal loopback mode.
- -f
- Set PMD framing type to either SONET or SDH.
- -i
- Set PMD to insert idle cells (ITU-T standard) or
unassigned cells (ATM Forum and ANSI standard).
- -c
- Set PMD clock source to external or internal.
It is not possible to set the number of VPI bits on 200Eseries
adapters.
Modifying PMD parameters may cause communication problems.
The parameters must agree with the parameters chosen at
the far end or intermediate switching module.
You cannot run this command in partner mode.
In takeover mode, the counters represent the combined
statistics of the live filer and failed filer.
No such device
This indicates that the specified device is
