SmartSwitch 6500 Reference Manual 2-227
PVC
Use PVC to manage PVCs on the switch. You assign two physical or virtual ports on the switch as PVC endpoints.
2p›F When you add the PVC, the endpoints are called Port 1 and Port 2 (corresponding
to order of entry). For subsequent action on the PVC (activate, deactivate, show,
delete), the endpoints are called High Port and Low Port. High and Low are based
on the lexical order of the port numbers. For example, port 2B1 is higher than port
1B1, port 2B2 is higher than port 2B1, and so on.
Operators
activate, add, clear, deactivate, delete, show
2p›F You can hot-swap TSMs. Hot-swapping is replacing a module when the chassis is
powered up. If you replace a TSM with another TSM of the same type (same I/O
ports), existing configuration of port parameters is not affected. This includes
parameters set using any of the following attributes: ATMRoute,
CACServiceClassBw, IlmiConfig, NetPrefix, Port, PortConfig, PVC, PVP,
ServiceRegistry, SigTimer, SigStatistics, SSCOPConfig, and SSCOPStatistics. If
you replace a TSM with another TSM of a different type, existing configuration
of port parameters is deleted. The deletion occurs when the new module is plugged
into the chassis backplane.
