The default VCs, can be remotely modified via the AutoPVC
feature of the STHome. AutoPVC operates only in conjunction
with the Alcatel Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM)
- often referred to as ATM Subscriber Access Multiplexer (ASAM)
- and offers the following functionality:
User VCs that are to be terminated on the Ethernet port, can
be notified by the STHome (AutoPVC list and yellow bar)
User VCs that need to be crossconnected between the DSL
port and the ATMF25.6 port, can be remotely established.
Suppose the SP configures one of the STHome's default
terminated VCs, e.g. 8/35, on the DSLAM.
VPI/VCI 8/35 will end up in the 'AutoPVC' list:
As this VC matches with the Bridging entry Br1, this phonebook
entry will be highlighted in the 'Phonebook' table:
In this way the user can distinguish the activated VC from dummy
phonebook entries.
