| Description | Indicates whether well-known VCs should be
automatically or manually created for the
interface.
In automatic(1) mode, well-known VCs will be
created with default VPI/VCI values upon startup or
upon entry to the automatic mode. While in this
mode, well-known VCs will not be allowed to be
deleted or modified by user commands. This is
the default mode at startup for equipment which
supports automatic well-known VC creation.
In manual(2) mode, well-known VCs won't be
automatically created. Instead, the user will be
allowed to delete and create PVCs with the
reserved encapsulation types aalQsAal, aal5Ilmi,
and aal5Pnni as applicable. And
these PVCs will be allowed to have VCI values
in the range <5-16383>, instead of <32-16383>.
The manualDeleteUponEntry(3) action causes
any existing VCs with reserved encapsulation
types (aalQsAal, aal5Ilmi or aal5Pnni) to be
deleted for this interface as it enters
the manual state. |
