I'm trying to connect two SHDSL routers, a Cisco 828 (IOS 12.3(6e)) and a ZyXEL Prestige 791R. I have very limited experience with ATM, and would appreciate any insight.
The physical interfaces go up on both sides, but I can't seem to get any IP traffic through the VC.
This is what I've done on the Cisco side:
interface ATM0 no shutdown ip address 192.168.252.2 255.255.255.252 no atm ilmi-keepalive dsl equipment-type CPE dsl operating-mode GSHDSL symmetric annex B dsl linerate AUTO pvc 8/35 encapsulation aal5mux ip protocol ip 192.168.252.1 ! !
The Prestige has menu-based configuration, but I've set up a connection with the same VPI/VCI numbers (8/35), selected RFC 1483 encapsulation and VC-based multiplexing. The WAN address is set to 192.168.252.1, and the subnet is defined as 192.168.252.0 with a subnet mask of
255.255.255.252. The ATM interface is set to "Server" (as opposed to "Client") and "ETSI(Annex B)".Neither side can ping the IP address of the other router. The Cisco can't even ping itself, which I find rather odd. I suspect I'm overlooking something really basic here.
I've tried switching to LLC encapsulation ("encapsulation aal5snap" on the Cisco, changed the multiplexing option from "VC-based" to "LLC-based" on the Prestige), but still no go.
Here's the output from "show interface ATM0" on the Cisco:

The "packets output" counter increases if I try to ping either end of the connection.
How can I find out what the problem is?
