[nsp] ATM subifs, multipoint to p-t-p

[David Sinn]

Along the same lines you can tftp down your config (copy run tftp), edit
it to replace the "point-to-point" with "multipoint", pop it back up to
your startup-config (copy tftp start) and then reboot.

(Normal warnings here:  You are editing your raw startup config, so if
you make a mistake you can loose access to the router and do other such
nasty stuff...)

As you have found, once a ATM interface is created there is no way to
fully remove it until you reboot.

 Hi Charles, as far as I know, there is no way around this except
"reload". You can then recreate the subinterface according to your
desired type.

Hi,

Is there a trick to converting a bunch of "multipoint" atm subifs to
"point-to-point"?  IOS simply says:

"% Warning:  cannot change link type"

So in the meantime it looks like I have to make new interfaces and
destroy the old.  But even after getting rid of the old interface I
can't recreate it as point-to-point; the same error is given.

Is there any way around this?  I like to match my subint names to the
pvcs they are associated with, and this throws that whole scheme out the
window...

Thanks,

Charles
