Chapter 3 Provisioning PXM1E Communication Links
General PXM1E Configuration Procedures
Step 1 Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher.
Step 2 If you want to preview the current ILMI configuration for a port, enter the dspilmis command. The
following example shows the dspilmis command report:
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a > dspilmis
Sig. rsrc Ilmi Sig Sig Ilmi S:Keepalive T:conPoll K:conPoll
Port Part State Vpi Vci Trap Interval Interval InactiveFactor
---- ---- ---- ---- ---- --- ------------ ---------- ----------
1 1 On 0 16 On 1 5 4
2 1 Off 0 16 On 1 5 4
3 1 Off 0 16 On 1 5 4
The example above shows that ILMI is enabled on port 1 (ILMI State = On) and is disabled on ports 2
and 3 (ILMI State = Off). All other ILMI parameters are set to the default values.
Note The ILMI state displayed by the dspilmis command is the configuration state, not the
operational state, which appears when you enter the dsppnports or dsppnilmi commands.
Step 3 Enter the cnfilmi command as follows:
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a > cnfilmi -if <ifNum> -id <partitionID> [-ilmi <ilmiEnable>] [-vpi <vpi>]
[-vci <vci>] [-trap <ilmiTrapEnable>] [-s <keepAliveInt>] [-t <pollingIntervalT491>] [-k
<pollInctFact>]
Table 3-15 describes the parameters for the cnfilmi command.
Table 3-15 cnfilmi Command Configuration Parameters
Parameter Description
ifNum Interface number or port number. This number identifies the port on which you
are configuring ILMI. Enter the interface number that was assigned with the
addport command (see “Adding ATM Ports”).
partitionID Partition ID number. This number identifies the PNNI partition assigned to the
port. Enter the partition number that was assigned to the port with the addpart
command (see “Partitioning Port Resources Between Controllers”).
Note Partition ID 1 is reserved for PNNI.
ilmiEnable ILMI enable parameter. To change the current state of ILMI, enter 1 to enable
or start ILMI or 2 to disable ILMI. Note that the default value is 1, which
causes ILMI to start whenever the cnfilmi command is entered, unless you
enter this parameter with value 2.
Default = 1 (enable).
vpi ILMI signaling VPI. If you need to change the default, enter a VPI number in
the range of 0 to 255. Note that changing this value disables ILMI
communications until the device at the remote end of the line has been
configured for the same ILMI VPI.
Default = 0.
