Configuring VLAN Aliases and Colors 4-21

All the LECs join the new “admin” ELAN since the LECS points them to the new “admin” LES.

It takes approximately 15 seconds to update the LECSs via Transcend Management Software. It takes about two minutes to reboot the switch with the old LES, and about five to fifteen minutes for all the LECs to join the new LES.

Quick LANE Redundancy

Quick LANE Redundancy performs automatic LANE redundancy, however, it differs in the conditions that are used to trigger and activate the LES/BUS pair redundancy.

Automatic LANE Redundancy is activated when the following conditions are met:

One LES/BUS is in critical state (red)

All of the attached LECs are in critical state

All links to the CoreBuilder are disconnected

The CoreBuilder is in critical state

Quick LANE Redundancy is activated when the following conditions are met:

One LES/BUS is in critical state (red)

At least one attached LEC is reported in critical state

The CoreBuilder is in critical state

To enable Quick LANE Redundancy, toggle on the Redundancy mode button in the Backbone and Services Configuration Assistant window.

Configuring VLAN To make it easier to identify and work with VLANs on the ATM and VLAN

Aliases and Colors Manager, the VLANs can be given application-oriented names or aliases (such as engineering, marketing, etc.) and colors to distinguish them on the device displays.

These aliases are local to the management station and are not reflected in the LECS database in the ATM switches.
