.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility is a HARP ATM daemon that performs the ILMI ATM address registration
|
|
procedures with an ATM network switch.
|
|
It is normally invoked at boot time
|
|
from the ATM startup script.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For each ATM interface with a UNI signalling manager attached,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will open an ILMI PVC (VPI = 0, VCI = 16) and register the interface's
|
|
ATM address with the switch.
|
|
As part of the address registration procedure,
|
|
the ATM switch will notify the endsystem (local host) of the
|
|
.Dq "network prefix"
|
|
portion of the endsystem's ATM address and
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will notify the switch of the endsystem's
|
|
.Dq "user part"
|
|
of its address
|
|
(typically the interface card MAC address).
|

to issue a coldStart TRAP on all ATM interfaces it's able to open and exit.

|
|
.Sh NOTES
|
|
This daemon does not fully conform to the ATM Forum ILMI specifications.
|
|
In particular, it
|
|
does not make any queries of the network side to ensure
|
|
that the ATM Address table is empty.
|
|
It also does not implement any
|
|
of the ATM Forum MIB that is specified as part of ILMI.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility will increment the debug level when it receives a
|
|
.Dv SIGUSR1
|
|
signal and will
|
|
decrement the debug level when it receives a
|
|
.Dv SIGUSR2
|
|
signal.
|
|
.Sh SEE ALSO
|
|

|
|
procedures.
