What is an ATM Permanent Virtual Path (PVP)?

A. A PVP is a connection that is manually configured by a network operator and is provisioned by the configuration of ATM switch-to-switch cells that uses only the VPI in the cell header. Like the SVCs, the PVPs are provisioned for the life of the service. PVPs are used as multiplexing/de-multiplexing points on ATM switches for VCs (Virtual Circuits) from various end devices. Refer to Configuring SVCs, PVCs, Soft PVCs, PVPs, and VP Tunnels for more information.
