• aal5mux encapsulation supports IPoA, IPoEoA, PPPoA, and PPPoEoA mappings, but can
only support one protocol at a time.
• aal5nlpid encapsulation supports only IPoA mappings.
Follow these guidelines when you configure the ATM AAL5 encapsulation type:
• Devices on the two ends must be configured with the same ATM AAL5 encapsulation types.
• Only aal5snap supports InARP. You cannot configure InARP when aal5mux or aal5nlpid is
used.
• Although a PVC or PVC-group can carry multiple protocols, a specific encapsulation type might
not support some of the applications (such as IPoA, IPoEoA, PPPoA, and PPPoEoA). In such
cases, the system displays error prompts.
• When you change the encapsulation type for a PVC or PVC-group, and the mappings that you
have configured conflict with the new encapsulation type, the PVC or PVC-group deletes the
configurations of all conflicting mappings.
• This command is not applicable to PVCs in a PVC-group.
Examples
# Set the AAL5 encapsulation for PVC 1/32 on interface ATM 2/4/0 to aal5snap.

interface virtual-ethernet
Use interface virtual-ethernet to create a VE interface or VE subinterface and enter its view, or
enter the view of an existing VE interface or VE subinterface.
Use undo interface virtual-ethernet to remove a VE interface or subinterface.
Syntax
interface virtual-ethernet { interface-number | interface-number.subnumber }
undo interface virtual-ethernet { interface-number | interface-number.subnumber }
Default
No VE interface or VE subinterfaces exist.
Views
System view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
interface-number: Specifies a VE interface by its number.
interface-number.subnumber: Specifies a V E subinterface by its number. The interface-number
argument represents the number of the VE interface. The subnumber argument represents the
number of the subinterface.
Usage guidelines
The baud rate of the VE interface is 10000000 bps.
Examples
# Create VE interface Virtual-Ethernet 2/4/1 and enter its view.
