Well, call setup is via qsaal.
(Good ref. is 'Cisco Lan Switching' pg.391).
(do a couple of debugs using 'debug atm ilmi' & 'debug atm sig-events')
Yeah, I know you don't get access on the ls1010, but you never know what
Cisco are going to throw at you (they could set up the ls1010 ready for this
scenario). You got ILMI, but maybe I won't!
But, as you know Kevin, I don't know the solution myself!!
You may be right though, it may not be possible. I'll see if anything comes
back & maybe ask Marc at CCBootcamp (he started all this!!).
Thanks
Mark
