Chapter 8      Configuring ATM Permanent Virtual Circuit Autoprovisioning
ATM PVC Autoprovisioning
Example 8-6 enables autoprovisioning on PVC range 100/100 to 100/200 and sets the idle-timeout timer 
for 300 seconds.
Example 8-6 Enabling ATM PVC Autoprovisioning on a PVC Range
Router(config)# int atm 3/0/0.1 multipoint
Router(config-subif)# atm pppatm passive
Router(config-subif)# range pvc 100/100 100/200
Router(config-subif-atm-range)# create on-demand
Router(config-subif-atm-range)# idle-timeout 300
Enabling ATM PVC Autoprovisioning on a Specific PVC Within a PVC Range
To enable ATM PVC autoprovisioning on a specific PVC within a PVC range, enter the following 
commands beginning in global configuration mode.
Step 3
Router(config-if-atm-range)# create 
on-demand
Enables PVC autoprovisioning on the range of PVCs.
Step 4
Router(config-if-atm-range)# idle-timeout 
[time-out-in-seconds] 
[minimum-traffic-in-kbps]
(Optional) Enables the idle-timeout timer on the on-demand PVC 
range.
The default time-out-in-seconds is 0 (no idle-timeout).
The Cisco 10000 series router waits until the traffic on a 
particular VC is processed before tearing down the VC, even if 
you specify the minimum-traffic-in-kbps option or if the VC is 
idle during the idle-timeout period.
Command Purpose
Command Purpose
Step 1
Router(config)# interface atm slot/0 
[.subinterface-number {multipoint | 
point-to-point}]
Specifies the ATM interface and enters interface or subinterface 
configuration mode.
Step 2
Router(config-if)# range [range-name] pvc 
start-vpi/start-vci end-vpi/end-vci
Specifies the range of PVCs and enters atm-range configuration 
mode.
Step 3
Router(config-if-atm-range)# pvc-in-range 
[pvc-name] [vpi/vci]
Specifies an individual PVC within the PVC range.
Step 4
Router(config-if-atm-range-pvc)# create 
on-demand
Enables PVC autoprovisioning on the individual PVC within the 
PVC range.
Step 5
Router(config-if-atm-range-pvc)# 
idle-timeout [time-out-in-seconds] 
[minimum-traffic-in-kbps]
(Optional) Enables the idle-timeout timer on the on-demand PVC 
within the PVC range.
The default time-out-in-seconds is 0 (no idle-timeout).
The Cisco 10000 series router waits until the traffic on a 
particular VC is processed before tearing down the VC, even if 
you specify the minimum-traffic-in-kbps option or if the VC is 
idle during the idle-timeout period.
