ATM CONFIGURATION TUTORIAL

ATM CONFIGURATION TUTORIAL & EXPERIMENT ON ATM CONNECTIVITY BY ANANTH V. KINI MST SPRING 2001 1 ATM CONNECTIVITY The equipments to be used for this experiment are: 1. The CISCO Lightstream 1010 switch. 2. The Adtech AX/4000 tester. 1. The CISCO Lightstream 1010 switch: The CISCO LightStream 1010 uses a five-slot, modular chassis featuring the option of dual, fault-tolerant, load-sharing power supplies. (See Figure 1) The central slot in the LightStream 1010 is dedicated to a single, field-replaceable ATM switch processor (ASP) module that supports both the 5-Gbps shared memory and the fully non-blocking switch fabric. The ASP also supports the feature card and high performance reduced instruction set (RISC) processor that provides the central intelligence for the device. The remaining slots support up to four hot-swappable Carrier Modules (CAMs). Each CAM supports up to two hot-swappable Port Adapter Modules (PAMs) for a maximum of eight PAMs per switch, supporting a wide variety of desktop, backbone, and wide-area interfaces.
