LEC Administration Screen

Topology Change Frames (Toggle)

This field toggles between Disable and Enable, with a default value of Disable.

NOTE: The LES ATM Address field does not display if the LEC is configured automatically. Instead, the field reads LECS ATM Address. If the LEC is configured automatically, the LES ATM Address is learned dynamically from the LECS.

LES ATM Address (Modifiable)

The address of the LAN Emulation Server with which the LEC registers. If the LEC is configured manually, the LES ATM Address must be supplied by the user.

NOTE: The LECS ATM Address field does not display if the LEC is configured manually. Instead, the field reads LES ATM Address. If the LEC is configured manually, the LECS is not used.

LECS ATM Address (Modifiable)

Displays the ATM address of the LAN Emulation Configuration Server (LECS). It is not necessary to enter the LECS address. Some network configurations, however, may have more than one LECS. To specify which LECS to connect with, the address must be entered in this field.

ADD LEC (Command)

Used to add the LEC to the VHSIM2-A6DP. This command is only available if the screen is in

CREATE MODE.

DELETE (Command)

Deletes the LEC from the VHSIM2-A6DP LEC Index. This command is only available if the screen is in MODIFY MODE.

MODIFY MODE (Command)

Allows the modification of all LECs that have been previously configured by putting the LEC Administration screen into MODIFY MODE. This command is only available if the screen is in

CREATE MODE.

CREATE MODE (Command)

Allows the creation of new LECs by putting the LEC Administration screen into CREATE MODE. This command is only available when the screen is in MODIFY MODE.

SAVE (Command)

Only displays if the screen is in MODIFY MODE. When performed, all changes are saved to memory.
