Chapter 11 Managing the Management LEC

Restarting the management LEC

This command is used after changing the management LEC configuration.

To restart the management LEC, use the lane lec restart command.

Command: M15-155s8:/>lane lec restart

Note: The above command may disrupt Telnet and SNMP management sessions.

Displaying the LANE-ARP cache

You can display the management LEC’s LANE-ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) cache. This is a list of all other LECs in the ELAN that have sent specifically- addressed LAN frames to the management LEC, or that the management LEC has sent frames to. These frames include Telnet session control and data frames, SNMP requests and responses, and PING requests and responses.

There are two kinds of entries that are displayed in the LANE-ARP cache:

MAC addresses, which are normally other nodes on the ELAN.

Route Descriptors (RDs), which occur only in a source-routed Token Ring ELAN and show either destinations for frames that must cross a source-routing bridge, or a device that bridges from ATM to physical Token-Ring networks.

To view the LANE ARP cache, use the lane lec arpcache command.

Command M15-155s8:/>lane lec arpcache
