ATM Switch Network Configuration Manual
Configuring an Emulated LAN
3.6.3 Starting the LAN Emulation Services
LAN Emulation services include the LECS and the LES/BUS. Once the LECS configuration
database file has been configured, these services must be started so that they are available for
LECs to attempt to use. Using ForeThought 5.2, the LES/BUS services must run in the same
device.
3.6.3.1 Starting the LECS
Once an LECS configuration file has been configured, you need to retrieve the LECS configu-
ration database file that you built elsewhere and put it on the switch that is going to run the
LECS.
1.
Use the following AMI command to retrieve the file:
configuration lane lecs get
<host>
:
<remotefile>
[
<localfile>
]
For example, you would enter something similar to the following:
configuration lane lecs get 198.29.22.46:lecs.cfg
2.
After you have retrieved the LECS configuration database file, use the following
AMI command to start the LECS service on the switch:
conf lane lecs new
<LECS Selector byte (HEX)>
[-db
<LECS database
file>
]\[-default
<LES atm address>
] [
<LECS-wka>
| none]
For example, to start the LECS service using the
-db
option and using the ATM
Forum’s well-known address you would enter something similar to the following:
configuration lane lecs new 0x0c -db lecs.cfg
NOTE
If you want to use an address other than the
ATM Forum’s address, you would enter that
address at the end of the command. If you want
to disable the well-known address so that the
LECS can only be contacted by using the switch’s
actual address (with selector byte) type
none
at
the end of the command.
