LECS Indicator

Most LAN Emulation Services include a LAN Emulation Configuration Server (LECS), which is the first server contacted when bringing up a LAN Emulation client. The LECS provides the ATM address of the LAN Emulation Server (LES), as well as other configuration information about the emulated LAN. However, some LAN Emulation services do not include an LECS, and the LES must be contacted directly. With the LECS Indicator parameter, you specify which service should be contacted first in your configuration. The possible values for this parameter are displayed as individual options on the LAN Emulation Instance menu.

If the value of this parameter is no_LECS, you must specify a value for the LES ATM Address parameter.
