This chapter provides instructions for configuring the following interface
types for the Channelized DS3 module:
•
ATM interswitch signaling protocol (IISP)user
•
ATM interswitch signaling protocol (IISP)network
•
ATM private network-network interface (PNNI) 1.0
•
ATM user-network interface (UNI) 3.0 and 3.1
•
Circuit emulation
•
Frame relay user-network interface (UNI)
•
Frame relay network-network interface (NNI)
•
High-level data link (HDLC) passthrough
•
Primary rate interface (PRI) Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)
network
•
Primary rate interface (PRI) Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)

Before you can set interface configuration values, you must select an
interface type value other than Unconfigured in the Interface Type field
on the Channelized DS3 Port and Channel Configuration window.
For a matrix of interface types by PSAX I/O module types, see the "Interface
Types by I/O Module Types Table" in the Reference Table appendix of this
user guide.
This section provides instructions for configuring an I/O module for the
Interim Interswitch Signaling protocol (IISP) user and network interfaces.
IISP, formerly known as PNNI Phase 0, was introduced as an interim
standard, pending completion of the PNNI Phase 1. Building on ATM UNI
3.0 and ATM UNI 3.1, it uses static routing tables established by the network
administrator to route connections around link failures.
