262 CHAPTER 9: MANAGING LAN EMULATION
Configure Segment
ID Configure a local segment ID for a token ring ELAN in the LECS database.
Specify the ELAN name.
Each token ring segment in a token ring network that uses source r outing
must be assigned a unique segment ID by the network administrator. You
assign the segment ID to the ATM ELAN, which simulates the token ring,
by this command. Then, when a LEC joins the ELAN, it gets the segment
ID from the LECS. Alternatively, instead of using this command, you c an
configure the segment ID manually in each individual LEC in the ELAN.
You cannot assign a segment ID to a non-token ring ELAN.
