Port to ELAN
Configuration
Submenu —
AT-S13
The Port to ELAN Configuration screen displays each UTP port as well as
the logically defined management port.
By default, all devices on a port are in the same ELAN, but you can override
membership assignments for individual devices on a port.
All that is required is that you activate the
Port to ELAN
configuration
screen (from the
LAN emulation
submenu) and configure
your user-designated ports to “FIXED.”
A configuration request will be sent to the LECS as new device is attached
(See ELAN Membership on page 52). A device that receives a positive
response from the LECS will join an ELAN. A device that receives a
negative response will join the “default” ELAN (if it has been configured).
NOTE
Ensure that the management workstation remains on the same ELAN as the
management client port, Port 17. Otherwise you will lose contact with the
switch
via Telnet. If you lose contact, either Telnet in from a station on the
management port’s ELAN, or initiate an Omega local session and reassign the
management station’s port to be on the same ELAN as Port 17.
To make ELAN assignments by port:
Enter
p
to select the
Port to ELAN Configuration
submenu. Please note
that this is the default screen.
This screen displays each of the sixteen (16) actual AT-4016TR UTP or
AT-4016F Fiber Optic ports as well as the logically defined management port
(Port #17).
