LEC Table Screen

Port (Read-Only)

Displays the application port number this has LEC has been dynamically assigned.

Index (Read-Only)

Displays the Index of the LEC.

LEC ID (Read-Only)

This value is dynamically assigned by the LES to uniquely identify this LEC.

Ver (Read-Only)

Displays the version of LAN Emulation (LANE) that the LEC is currently using.

ELAN ID (Read-Only)

This value is dynamically assigned by the LES to uniquely identify this ELAN.

ELAN Name (Read-Only)

Displays the name assigned to the Emulated LAN (ELAN) by the user in the LEC Administration screen (Section 3.13) or by the LECS.

LEC State (Read-Only)

Displays the current state of the LEC. The LEC goes through a series of initialization phases, which may result in this field displaying different states as the initialization process proceeds. The possible states are as follows:

NOTE: In most cases, the initialization process occurs very rapidly, and the following initialization states, with the exception of “Operational”, may not display.

• Initial State - While in Initial State the LEC receives two types of configuration parameters:

From the User: LECS ATM Address, ELAN Name, MTU Size, and LAN Type.

From the ATM Switch: The ATM Address of the switch.

LECS Connect - During the LECS Connect phase, the LEC establishes a Configuration Direct VCC with the LECS.

Configure - The Configure phase is where the LEC discovers the LES before going on to the join phase.
