To the ATM guru,
I have a ATM WAN via SPRINT from the HQ (Chicago) to 4
regional branch office (LA, FL, NY and CO).
The PVC infomations that SPRINT provides to me after
the circuit installation completed has only the
Originating VPI and Terminating VPI. There are no
information about the VCI. Th
our situation or is
Sprint telling you that a VCI is not needed altogether ???

Sounds like they are giving you a PVP. (permanent virtual path) If that
is true then they are correct whatever VCI you choose at the source will
be the same VCI at the destination. In other words the Sprint ATM
switches will not switch based on the VCI info in the cell header; it
will only look
Actually, this is a very common practice with carriers--they sell you a pipe
of so many Kbps and it's up to you how you want to carve it up. They set up
one VC in side their network and they switch all cells with the same VPI
value to the appropriate destination. This gives you a lot of flexibilit
If their switch is routing entire VPI's then it doesn't matter the VCI to
the switch. It just takes *everything* from one pipe and shoots it out
another.
