.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
displays or controls the shaper parameters of an ATM VC.
|
|
When a shaper value is specified,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
sets a shaper to an ATM VC.
|
|
.Nm
|
|
works for a PVC sub interface
|
|
.Xr pvc 4
|
|
as well as a real ATM interface
|
|
.Xr en 4 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For a real ATM interface, the specified VC should be assigned
|
|
beforehand by
|
|
.Xr route 8 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For a sub interface,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
assigns the specified VC to the sub interface. If another VC is
|
|
already assigned to the sub interface, the old VC is invalidated.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Availability of shapers, the number of hardware shaper channels,
|
|
and accuracy of shaping are all device dependent.
|
|
For example, ENI Midway chip has 8 shaper channels but the driver
|
|
reserves one for non-shaping VCs.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Ar Interface
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar interface
|
|
parameter is a string of the form
|
|
.Dq name unit ,
|
|
for example,
|
|
.Dq en0
|
|
.It Op vpi: Ar vci
|
|
The VC number to which the shaper is assigned.
|
|
When the VPI number is omitted, VPI number 0 is
|
|
assumed.
|
|
For example, to assign a shaper to VPI=0 and
|
|
VCI=201, the following forms can be used:
|
|
"201", "0xc9", "0:201", "0:0xc9".
|
|
.It Fl p Ar pcr
|
|
The PCR (Peak Cell Rate) parameter specifies the peak cell rate in
|
|
"cells per second".
|
|
If PCR value "0" is specified,
|
|
no shaper is assigned, which means cells are sent at
|
|
full-speed of the link.
|
|
If PCR value
|
|
.Dq -1
|
|
is specified, the corresponding VC
|
|
is invalidated.
|
|
.It Fl b Ar max-bandwidth
|
|
The PCR parameter can be specified also in
|
|
.Dq bits per second .
|
|
The rate is the rate of AAL5 frame and
|
|
the PCR is calculated by the following form:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl PCR = max-bandwidth / 8 / 48
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dq K
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq M
|
|
can be used as a short hand of
|
|
.Dq 000
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq 000000
|
|
respectively. For example,
|
|
.Dq 45M
|
|
means
|
|
.Dq 45Mbps
|
|
or PCR value
|
|
.Dq 117187 .
|
|
.It [-j [vpi:]vci]
|
|
The join parameter is intended for VP shaping.
|
|
The VC shaper channel is shared with the existing VC,
|
|
which means the sum of the cell rates never exceeds
|
|
the maximum PCR among the shared VCs.
|
|
On the other hand, when the shaper channel is not shared,
|
|
the sum of the cell rates could be the sum of the PCRs.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example, if two VCs (say 201 and 202) share a
|
|
45Mbps VP, use:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl # pvctxctl en0 201 -b 45M
|
|
.Dl # pvctxctl en0 202 -b 45M -j 201
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
This parameter is only for a sub interface.
|
|
Use NULL encapsulation instead of LLC/SNAP.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh CAVEATS
|
|
A real ATM interface and a sub interface require different
|
|
sequences to set a shaper.
|
|
For example, to assign a 45Mbps shaper to VC 201 (0xc9) of en0:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl # ifconfig en0 10.0.0.1
|
|
.Dl # route add -iface 10.0.0.2 -link en0:3.0.0.c9
|
|
.Dl # pvctxctl en0 0xc9 -b 45M
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For a shadow interface,
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl # pvcsif en0 # creates pvc0
|
|
.Dl # ifconfig pvc0 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2
|
|
.Dl # pvctxctl pvc0 201 -b 45M
