Creating an Emulated LAN

IP Over ATM and LANE

s• Enter the start LECS command to activate LANE server services on this switch.

SmartCell ZX # start lecs

NOTICE - 'LECS' ***** LECS started *****

SmartCell ZX #

¢• Create an ELAN on your SmartCell ZX-250 switch by executing the add elan command. The following is an example.

SmartCell ZX # add elan

 

ELANNumber(0) : 1

<1 is used instead of the default, (0)

ELANName(ELAN001): Marketing <ELAN is named Marketing instead of the default, (ELAN000)

ConnectMethod(SVC):

 

ELANType(802.3)

<The default (Ethernet) is used

Multipoint(YES) :

 

MTU(1516) :

 

Distribute(PROXY) :

 

SmartCell ZX #

••Create a client for the switch on the ELAN. For example, enter

SmartCell ZX # add laneclient

ClientNumber(0) :1<One is used instead of the default, (0)

LanName(ELAN001) : Marketing < ELAN name is Marketing, not the default, (ELAN001)

ServerType(LECS) :

 

ServerAddress()

<No LANE server address is specified; see note below

IPAddress() : 90.1.1.1

< IP address and subnet mask are included only as examples

NetMask(255.0.0.0): 255.255.255.0

MTU(1516) :

SmartCell ZX #

2p›F The command add laneclient always prompts you with a subnet mask that is appropriate for the IP address. However, if necessary, you can change the subnet mask to correspond to the strategy employed within your networks.

2p›F When you create a client, it automatically finds the LECS address using ILMI.

As the local client joins the ELAN, the following messages are sent to the Event log:

NOTICE - 'ZLESSRV' LES Join 39:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:14:41:80:00:20:D4:

14:41:82:00

NOTICE - 'ZLESSRV' BUS Connect 39:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:14:41:80:00:20:D4:

14:41:82:00

%"¤›apm Never create an ELAN (or ELAN client) with the same subnet as the SmartCell ZX-250 Ethernet port.
