The main purpose of the ILMI configuration screen is to limit the range of VPI/VCI pairs for SVC connections. In the default setting, there are no VPI/VCI pairs reserved for PVCs. Refer Figure 3-3. 9A656-04 and 9A600 Configuration Guide Table 3-1 provides the default settings ILMI uses when Table 3-2 displays the available range of VCI/VPI pairs describes how to use the ILMI Configuration screen to...

PNNI for its protocol stack, and ILMI is operating, that interface will automatically use PNNI for its Signalling stack. Individual interfaces can also be configured to use PNNI only, as described in 9A656-04 and 9A600 Configuration Guide Routing Overview Section...
The 9A656-04 can, however, be a border node interconnecting two or more peer groups. The next firmware revision will allow the 9A656-04 to be a peer group leader. NOTE 9A656-04 and 9A600 Configuration Guide...
In the event that no switch can meet the QoS requirements, the connection will be refused. PNNI attempts to limit the amount of crankback on the network by using Generic Call Admission Control (GCAC), as described in 9A656-04 and 9A600 Configuration Guide Figure 4-3.
The 9A656-04 supports the following UNI Signalling specifications for IISP connections: • UNI 3.0 • UNI 3.1 • UNI 4.0 4.4.2 UNI Sides The 9A656-04 supports both network and user side UNI Signalling for IISP connections. 4-10 9A656-04 and 9A600 Configuration Guide...
