A.2.2.4 Cells and No Errors Received by Remote and Transmitting No Cells
If the remote workstation is receiving cells with no errors, but is not transmit-
ting any cells, then either the outgoing IP address on the remote end is incor-
rect or the IP encapsulation does not match on both ends. (A Classical IP PVC
uses LLC/SNAP encapsulation while a regular PVC uses AAL5-based, Multi-
plexing-based (NULL) encapsulation).

rect or the IP encapsulation does not match on both ends. (A Classical IP PVC
uses LLC/SNAP encapsulation while a regular PVC uses AAL5-based, Multi-
plexing-based (NULL) encapsulation).
First, check the outgoing IP address on the remote end using atmarp -a. If it
is not configured properly, then correct the configuration and rerun the test. If
the outgoing ARP entry is configured properly, then check to see if the IP
encapsulation matches on both ends using atmarp -a.

A.2.2.5 Cells and No Errors Received by Remote and Transmitting Cells
If the remote end is receiving cells with no errors and is transmitting cells in
response, then the remote end is OK. Looking at Figure A.2, reverse the direc-
tion. From the remote host, start a continuous ping and then run these same
tests starting again with Section A.2.1, Verifying the Outgoing ATM ARP
Entry. Watch the results of these tests on the local host.
