Figure 29-7 shows the VP pointer address compression from Table 29-5.

29.4.2.2 VC-Level Address Compression Tables (VCLTs)
Each VPLT entry points to a single VCLT. Like the VPLT, the size of each VCLT depends
on VC_MASK. Because the VCLT contains word entries, if VC_MASK =
0b11_1111_1111, the table is 4 Kbytes. The address of an entry in this table is VCT_BASE
+ VCOFFSET ´ 4 + VCpointer ´ 4.
The MPC8260 can check that all unallocated VCI bits are 0 by setting GMODE[CUAB]
(check unallocated bits). If they are not, the cell is considered a misinserted cell.
An example of VC-level table entry address calculation is shown in Table 29-6. Note that
VCOFFSET is assumed to be 0x100 for this example.
Figure 29-8 shows the VC pointer address compression from Table 29-6.

29.4.3 Misinserted Cells
If the address lookup mechanism cannot find a match (MS=1), the cell is discarded and
ATM layer statistics are updated, as described in Section 29.8, ÒATM Layer Statistics.Ó
