Supported Platforms
Enabling ILMI for Cell Relay
The Junos OS supports standard AAL5 and three Layer 2 circuit transport modes: Layer 2 circuit AAL5, Layer 2 circuit cell-relay, and Layer 2 circuit trunk transport mode.
Integrated local management interface (ILMI) is supported on standard AAL5 interfaces, regardless of encapsulation. To enable ILMI on interfaces with cell-relay encapsulation, you must configure an ATM2 IQ PIC to use Layer 2 circuit trunk transport mode. ILMI is not supported with cell-relay encapsulation when the ATM2 IQ PIC is configured with Layer 2 AAL5 or Layer 2 circuit cell-relay transport mode, as shown in as shown in Table 1.
Layer 2 circuit cell-relay trunk mode is not supported on ATM OC48 PICs.
Table 1: ILMI Support by Encapsulation Type
Encapsulation Type | ILMI Support |
---|---|
Standard AAL5, with any encapsulation type | Yes |
Layer 2 circuit AAL5 mode | No |
Layer 2 circuit cell-relay mode | No |
Layer 2 circuit trunk mode | Yes |
For more information about Layer 2 circuit transport modes, see Configuring Layer 2 Circuit Transport Mode.
To configure ILMI on an interface with cell-relay encapsulation, include the following statements:
