Abstract
A device at the terminal unit and a device at the network support an interim local management (ILMI) protocol. When the power is applied to the device at the terminal unit, it notifies the device at the network of support range information about a VPI/VCI of the device at the terminal unit. The device at the network assigns a VPI/VCI to the device at the terminal unit according to the support range information about the VPI/VCI received in a cold start trap message from the device at the terminal unit when a signal is received from the device at the terminal unit.
