hi, i have one atm sub-interface configured as follow:
interface ATM2/0/0.20100201 point-to-point
ip vrf forwarding test
ip address 10.14.2.181 255.255.255.252
atm route-bridged ip
atm pppatm passive
pvc 201/201
class-vc rbe
ip route vrf test 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.14.2.1
I tried to ping it from the router using ping vrf test 10.14.2.181 but ping test failed. I have an RBE user connected to this interface and the user can ping 10.14.2.181. My question is, is it possible to ping this vrf interface from the router?
thanks..

Hello Maria,
you are facing an issue that depends from the ATM nature of the interface.
to be able to ping an ATM interface the packet has to physically go out on the pvc reach the other end and be sent back on the pvc.
in this case you are also using RBE and this can add to the complexity.
if you ping in VRF the other end 10.14.2.182 do you get an answer ?
if so you should be fine.
Hope to help

Hi Giuseppe,
Thanks for the reply..pinging the vrf on other end of the pvc works. We are using Cisco 10000 box with STM 4 atm card.
thanks.
