Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN
Avaya M770 ATM Switch User’s Guide 223
To change the formula for LES address that a LEC will call, enter the lane elan
lesaddress command:
Note: If only the name of the ELAN is entered then the LES address formula
currently in use will be displayed for the specified ELAN.
Changing the Maximum Number of LESes in an ELAN
This command is only valid if the specified ELAN supports distributed LANE
Services.
You must be aware of the following, if you change the number of distributed LESes
that the ELAN supports:
• If the maximum is increased the change will take effect immediately and
additional standby LES(es) will be promoted to active (if there are any).
• If the maximum is decreased the change will not affect the number of LESes
currently providing LEServices, but rather will determine whether active LESes
which get timed-out, get re-admitted or replaced by a standby LES.
