Description

 

 

anymac

A wild card representing any 6-byte ESI. Should only be used

anymacsel

A wild card representing any 7-byte ESI and Selector

A wild card matching one or two hexadecimal digits within

 

any colon-separated field. For example, $prefix:$anymac:?

 

is equivalent to both $prefix:$anymac:?? and

 

$prefix:$anymacsel. However, it is not the same as

 

$prefix:$anymacsel:0?, which requires that the first digit

 

of the selector byte is a 0. This wild card should only be used in

 

a entries.

 

 

Sample LAN Emulation Configurations

The following examples demonstrate entries in the /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/ laneconfig file for several common configurations.

Although some of the examples show only one sample laneconfig file, similarly configured files must appear on each LAN Emulation client.

1.Basic LAN Emulation client. The ATM and MAC address of a frequently used server is provided. The LECS provides the name of the Emulated LAN.
