Assigning Descriptions to Virtual Paths

To assign a description to an individual VP on an ATM interface, use the atm vp-description command. The VP description does not affect existing descriptions configured for the ATM interface or ATM 1483 subinterface on which the VP resides. However, if you delete the ATM interface, the descriptions of all VPs residing on that interface are also deleted. In addition, if you decrease the VPI range by issuing the atm vc-per-vp command, the router deletes the descriptions of any VPs that are removed.

To display the VP description, use the show atm vp-description command, as described in Using ATM show Commands. Although you need not configure a VP tunnel to specify a VP description, the router also displays the VP description in the output of the show atm vp-tunnel command.
