Configuring ATM Services
2-26 114056 Rev. A
Function of the Router ATM ILI Pair
ATM router link modules interact with specific processor modules to form ILI
pairs. These ILI pairs provide the connection and processing that allows the router
to connect directly to an ATM network and route information to other local or
wide area networks that it supports.
Bay Networks currently provides the following ATM ILI pairs:
• An ATM FRE2 link module in conjunction with a FRE2 processor
• An ARE link module in conjunction with an ARE processor
Both ILI pairs are functionally similar and you configure them in generally the
same way.
Understanding the Configuration and Control Software
The sample ATM network consists of various control software components. Each
of these components provides a necessary function within the ATM network.
Role of Site Manager
Site Manager software allows you to configure and monitor routing services (in
this case, between emulated LANs or logical IP subnets) for ATM FRE2 ILI pairs,
ATM ARE ILI pairs, and Model 5780 ATM routers. For general information about
how to use Site Manager, refer to Using Site Manager Software.
Role of SpeedView
SpeedView software allows you to configure and monitor the Centillion 100
switch. For additional information about SpeedView software, refer to
Centillion 100 Installation and Configuration.
Role of the CMS
The ATM CMS software provides connection services within the ATM network.
Functions of the CMS include
• Managing call setup, maintenance, and clearing within a switch domain
• Negotiating network resources, a network path, and bandwidth prior to
sending ATM traffic
