When you create a PVC, you can select one of several traffic descriptors by
entering the desired value in the Conformance Type field on the user
interface windows for certain connection types. The traffic descriptor
specifies which traffic parameters are used for traffic control. It also
determines the number and type of cells that are admitted into a congested
queue, and whether high-priority cells are tagged as low-priority cells when
traffic exceeds the traffic parameter thresholds.
The traffic descriptors used in the PacketStar
system software are supported for the following types of connections.
•
ATM-to-ATM VCC PVC connection
•
ATM-to-ATM VPC PVC connection
•
Bridge-to-ATM VCC PVC connection
