PVC Endpoint Rules
PVC Endpoint Rules
Table 10-1 can help you determine calling and called endpoints on the switch and
endpoint 1 and endpoint 2 in the NMS when PVCs are created.
Table 10-1. PVC Endpoint Rules
PVC Type Switch NMS Task
Both circuit endpoints
are fixed
a
(Point-to-point PVC)
1. Higher switch IP
address is always the
caller.
2. If both endpoints are
on the same switch, the
higher interface number
is the caller.
1. Higher IP address is
always endpoint 1 on NMS.
2. If both endpoints are on the
same switch, then higher
interface number is always
endpoint 2 on NMS.
1. See the View PVC dialog box
(described in the Switch Diagnostics
User’s Guide for CBX 3500, CBX
500, GX 550, and B-STDX 9000).
2. Use the
show ospf names
command to find the interface
number.
First endpoint is fixed
a
while second endpoint is
variable
b
and primary
c
Fixed endpoint is always
the caller.
Fixed endpoint is always
designated endpoint 2 in
NMS.
See the View PVC dialog box in
Navis EMS-CBGX (described in
chapter 11 of the Switch Diagnostics
User’s Guide for CBX 3500, CBX
500, GX 550, and B-STDX 9000).
First endpoint is variable
and primary while
second endpoint is fixed
Fixed endpoint is always
the caller.
Fixed endpoint is always
designated endpoint 2 in
NMS.
See the View PVC dialog box in
Navis EMS-CBGX (described in the
Switch Diagnostics User’s Guide for
CBX 3500, CBX 500, GX 550, and
B-STDX 9000).
Both endpoints are
variable and primary
Higher Service Name
Binding (SNB) ID is
always the caller.
Higher SNB ID is designated
as endpoint 2 in NMS.
Use the Cvlistcontained
command in Provisioning Server to
find the SNB ID.
First endpoint is variable
and primary while
second endpoint is
backed-up
d
Higher variable (SNB)
is always the caller
(even if backed up).
Backed-up endpoint is always
designated endpoint 1 in
NMS.
For the switch, use the
Cvlistcontained command in
Provisioning Server to find the SNB
ID.
For the NMS, see the View PVC
dialog box (described in the Switch
Diagnostics User’s Guide for CBX
3500, CBX 500, GX 550, and
B-STDX 9000).
First endpoint is backed-
up while second
endpoint is variable and
primary
Sets whatever
configuration that is
given from Navis
EMS-CBGX.
Backed-up endpoint is always
designated endpoint 1 in
NMS.
See the View PVC dialog box in
Navis EMS-CBGX (described in
chapter 11 of the Switch Diagnostics
User’s Guide for CBX 3500, CBX
500, GX 550, and B-STDX 9000).
a
Fixed refers to endpoints that do not have an SNB configured.
b
Variable refers to an endpoint with an SNB on the primary interface.
c
Primary refers to an endpoint that is the primary logical port for an SNB.
d
Backed-up refers to endpoints where a backup logical port is active for an SNB.
