Cisco 600 Series DSL Customer Premises Equipment Routers

Introduction

This document shows how to display and change the VPI/VCI values for the Cisco 675 Customer Premises Equipment (CPE).

Prerequisites

Displaying VPI/VCI Values

The default values are VPI=1 and VCI=1, and these settings much match the values configured on the Internet Service Provider's digital subscriber line access multiplexer (DSLAM) on the subscriber side.

Note: Not all versions of the Cisco 675 software have a default of VPI=1 and VCI=1. Also, in Cisco Broadband Operating System (CBOS) version 2.3 or earlier, the VPI count is 1 to 4. In later versions, the VPI count is 1 to 8. Upgrade to release 2.3.9 or later if you have problems configuring the VPI/VCI values. The valid ranges for VPI and VCI addresses are shown in this table:

In order to display the current VPI/VCI values for the Cisco 675:

cbos#show int wan0-0
WAN0-0 ATM Logical Port
PVC (VPI 1, VCI 1) is open.

!--- the default value of 1/1

ScalaRate set at 1088 Kbps
AAL 5         UBR Traffic
PPP LCP State: Opened
PPP NCP State (IP Routing): Opened
PPP MRU: 2048    HDLC Framing: disabled    MPOA Mode: VC Mux
PPP Login: cisco
 Authentication Type: Autodetecting/PAP
RADIUS: disabled
PPP Tx: 145866           Rx: 145776
Dest IP: 10.1.1.1
Dest Mask: 255.255.255.255
IP Port Enabled

Changing VPI/VCI Values

In order to change the VPI/VCI values, complete these steps:

1. Shut down the WAN0-0 interface.

   cbos#set int wan0-0 close
   Closing connection wan0-0

2. Verify that the interface is shut down.

   cbos#show int wan0-0
   WAN0-0  ATM Logical Port
   PVC (VPI 1, VCI 1) is configured.
   
   !--- note that it does not say "is open"
   
   ScalaRate set at 1088 Kbps
   AAL 5         UBR Traffic
   IP Port Enabled

3. Change the values.

   cbos#set int wan0-0 vpi 2
   
   !--- new value
   
   Change completed.
   
   cbos#set int wan0-0 vci 34
   
   !--- new value
   
   Change completed.
   
   cbos#set int wan0-0 open
   
   !--- opens the WAN interface
   
   

4. Verify the changes.

   cbos#show int wan0-0
   WAN0-0  ATM Logical Port
   PVC (VPI 2, VCI 34) is configured.
   
   !--- new values (will not
   !--- be in open state until a reboot)
   
   ScalaRate set at 1088 Kbps
   AAL 5         UBR Traffic
   IP Port Enabled
   
   cbos#show run
   [[ PPP Device Driver = Section Start ]]
   PPP Port User Name = 00, tito
   PPP Port User Password = 00, dayans
   [[ IP Routing = Section Start ]]
   IP Port Address = 00, 10.1.1.2
   [[ CBOS = Section Start ]]
   NSOS Prompt = 4/33
   NSOS Serial More = 20
   [[ ATM WAN Device Driver = Section Start ]]
   ATM WAN Virtual Connection Parms = 00, 2, 34, 0
   
   !--- new values
   
   

5. Issue write and reboot commands to the Cisco 675.

   cbos#write
   NVRAM written.
   
   cbos#reboot
   Hello!
   Expanding CBOS image...
   CBOS v2.2.0.000

   Note: The WAN0-0 interface was closed before the VPI/VCI values were changed. For it to be functional, you need to open it. When both the write and reboot commands are issued on the Cisco 675, the WAN0-0 interface is automatically opened.
