Creating an Elan client mapping

Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN

Creating an ELAN client mapping

When you create a new ELAN client mapping to a specific ELAN, first you must decide whether it is a single LEC or a group of LECs that is to be mapped.

You must then decide what type of ELAN mapping to use. Possible mapping types are:

•An ATM address: the mappings refer to a specific LEC or a group of LECs.

•An alias ELAN name: the mappings refer to a specific LEC or a group of LECs.

•A MAC address: the mappings always refer to a specific LEC.

To create a new client mapping for a LEC ATM address, use the lane elan client create atm command:

Command: Example 1:

Example 2:

Parameters:

M15-155s8:/>lane elan client create atm <address value> <address mask> <ELAN name>

The following example shows how to map a specific LEC to the ELAN accounts_elan:

M15-155s8:/>lane elan client create atm

39.84.0F.80.01.BC.61.DF.00.07.80.20.00.00.00.6F.07.80.20.00

FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF.FF

accounts_elan

This example shows how to map all LECs whose addresses begin with a specific prefix to the ELAN accounts_elan:

M15-155s8:/>lane elan client create atm

39.84.0F.80.01.BC.61.DF.00.07.80.20.00 13 accounts_elan

<address	The full 20-byte ATM address.
value>
<address mask>	The portion of the <address value> that needs to match the LEC's ATM
	address for the mapping to apply.
	The <address mask> is either entered as a number, (for example, 15
	indicates that the first 15 bytes of the <address value> is to be masked),
	or you can use FF to indicate the byte of the <address value> that is to be
	masked and 00 to indicate the byte of the <address value> that is not
	masked. When using the mask as a number, note that the number of
	bytes entered in the address value should be limited to this number.
<ELAN name>	The name of the ELAN known to the LECS.
