Platform Notes: The SunATM Driver Software

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.


    set srvr_mac = 08:00:20:01:02:03
    
    Interface     MAC_Address/     ATM_Address         VCI   Flag
                  ELAN Name
    lane0            -             $myaddress           -      l
    lane0         $srvr_mac        $prefix:$srvr_mac:00 -      t

  2. LAN Emulation client. The LECS requires that the client send the Emulated LAN name in its messages.


    Interface   MAC_Address/    ATM_Address    VCI   Flag
                ELAN Name
    lane0          -            $myaddress      -     l
    lane0       elan1               -           -     n
