13.8 TDM Pseudowire Profile
Pseudowire emulation is a method for transmitting any Layer 2 protocol over PSNs
(Packet Switched Networks). It allows a seamless connection between two network ele-
ments by creating logical links, or virtual tunnels, across the packet network. In TDM
pseudowires, the transmitted E1, T1, E3, or T3 streams are encapsulated in packets upon
entering the network and then reconstructed at the pseudowire egress, where clocking in-
formation is also regenerated. As a result, real-time traffic is delivered transparently with-
out distortion, avoiding the complexities of translating signaling data, while ensuring that
synchronization criteria are met.
In order to perform the TDM pseudowire related configuration, you should create/enter
the TDM pseudowire profile. For the creation and configuration of the profile, see the fol-
lowing sections.
13.8.1 Creating TDM Pseudowire Profile
To create a TDM pseudowire profile, use the following command.
tdm-pw-profile NAME create
Creates a TDM pseudowire profile.
NAME: TDM pseudowire profile name
After opening TDM Pseudowire Profile Configuration mode, the prompt changes from
SWITCH(config)# to SWITCH(config-tdm-pw-profile[NAME])#.
To delete an existing TDM pseudowire profile, use the following command.
no tdm-pw-profile {NAME | all}
Deletes the TDM pseudowire profile.
NAME: TDM pseudowire profile name
To modify an existing TDM pseudowire profile, use the following command.
tdm-pw-profile NAME modify
Modifies the exisitng TDM pseudowire profile.
NAME: TDM pseudowire profile name
