Creating Bridged IP Interfaces

To create a bridged IP interface on an ATM subinterface, you must navigate through the following hierarchy:

• The module
• The line interface
• The ATM interface
• The ATM subinterface

To create a bridged IP interface:

1. Select an ATM subinterface, right-click, select Create, and click Bridged IP (RFC1483).

The Create Bridged IP dialog box appears.

2. Click OK. The bridged IP interface is created (Table 64).

 Table 64:  Bridged IP Parameters   

 Parameter
 Description

 Name

 Identifies the interface; generated automatically


 Alias

 Description of the interface; 0-15 characters; default: blank


 IfIndex

 Identifies the interface on the particular line interface; generated automatically


 Operational

 Current operational status of the interface


 Administrative

 Desired status of the interface: Up/Down; default: Up



 

You can now create each of the following on the new bridged IP interface:

• IP address (see NMC-RX User Guide, Vol. 2, Chapter 6, Configuring IP)
• PPPoE interface (see Chapter 27, Configuring PPP over Ethernet)
• CBF interface (see Creating CBF Interfaces)
