LANE Services

This chapter describes the features of the LANE Services in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch.

LANE Components in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch

Each module in the Avaya M770 ATM Switch can host one LECS and multiple combined LES and BUS. This means that on one switch, there can be several resilient LECS, and for one ELAN, several distributed LES. The LES does not have to reside in the same device as the LECS.

The elected master module in each switch hosts the management LEC.

For a list of the factory-configured default settings for the LANE components in an M770 ATM Switch, see Appendix A “Default Settings on a New Avaya M770 ATM Switch”.

LANE configuration file config.data

A module’s LANE configuration is saved in a flash file called config.data. After a change is made to the module’s LANE configuration, it is written to this file. If there is not enough room in flash memory (greater than 14 files or not enough memory left) for new LANE changes to be saved, you will receive the following message:

There is not enough room in flash to save your latest change.

If a reset occurs, this change will be lost.

If this occurs, you need to delete at least one of the unused files in flash in order for the LANE configuration to be saved.
