29.5.1 VC-based Multiplexing (non-PPP Encapsulation)
For VC-based multiplexing, by prior agreement, a protocol is assigned a specific virtual circuit, for
example, VC1 will carry IP. Separate VPI and VCI numbers must be specified for each protocol.
VC Options for IP:
VPI #= 8
VCI #= 35
ATM QoS Type= UBR
Peak Cell Rate (PCR)= 0
Sustain Cell Rate (SCR)= 0
Maximum Burst Size (MBS)= 0
29.5.2 LLC-based Multiplexing or PPP Encapsulation
For LLC-based multiplexing or PPP encapsulation, one VC carries multiple protocols with protocol
identifying information being contained in each packet header.

In this case, only one set of VPI and VCI numbers need be specified for all protocols. The valid range for
the VPI is 0 to 255 and for the VCI is 32 to 65535 (1 to 31 is reserved for local management of ATM
traffic).
