Setting up permanent virtual circuits (PVC)

The modems currently available are using ATM to multiplex traffic over the DSL framing connection. ATM
allows you to have separate logical connections running in parallel. Those connections are called permanent
virtual circuits (PVC). All permanent virtual circuits use AAL5 framing.
Step 1 node(prt-dsl)[0/0]# [no] pvc vpi 8 vci 35
Step 2 node(pvc)[8/35]# encapsulation {llc|vc}

Using PVC channels in bridged Ethernet mode

The PVC offers a bridged Ethernet connection as specified in RFC1483, which can be used as an IP link e.g.
with DHCP to assign the address, DNS server, and default gateway. To do this, you bind an IP interface to the
PVC like it would be done to a normal Ethernet port.
Step 1 node(pvc)[vpi/vci]# [no] bind interface <if-
name>

Using PVC channels with PPPoE

The RFC1483 bridged Ethernet connection can also be used for PPPoE. To do this, you enter PPPoE mode
within the PVC mode. All PPPoE commands apply as if the PVC was a regular Ethernet port.
Step 1 node(pvc)[vpi/vci]# pppoe
Step 2 node(pppoe)# session <name>
Step 3 node(session)[<name>]# bind subscriber
<subscriber-name>
Step 4 node(session)[<name>]# no shutdown
