2. Create a Layer 3
VE interface and
enter its view.
interface virtual-ethernet
interface-number
If a specified Layer 3 VE interface does not
exist, use this command to first create one
and then enter its view.
You can create up to 1024 Layer 3 VE
interfaces.
3. Set the interface
description.

Configuring IPoA
When you configure IPoA, follow these guidelines:
• If you execute the map ip command with the broadcast keyword, which specifies pseudo
broadcast, any broadcast packets received by the port on which the PVC is created will be
duplicated to the PVC. Therefore, to propagate broadcast or multicast packets on an ATM PVC
with a broadcast or multicast protocol enabled, specify the broadcast keyword.
• Configure the map ip default broadcast command on PVCs created on P2P ATM
subinterfaces.
• You can configure PVC mapping in PVC view. For more information, see HPE FlexNetwork
MSR Router Series Comware 5 MPLS Configuration Guide.
