atm atmconfig allows a user 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 support only
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_atm_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.
