DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action
Purpose
Step 1
ATM(config)# lane
databasedatabase-name
Enters database configuration mode for the LANE database that you specify.
Step 2
ATM(lane-config-database)#
nameelan-name1server-atm-
addressatm-address [index n ]
Binds the name of the first ELAN to the ATM address of the LES/BUS for that ELAN
in the configuration database.
The index determines the priority. The highest priority is 0.
Step 3
ATM(lane-config-database)#
nameelan-name2server-atm-
addressatm-address [index n ]
Binds the name of the second ELAN to the ATM address of the LES/BUS in the
configuration database.
The index determines the priority. The highest priority is 0.
Repeat this step, providing a different ELAN name and ATM address for each
additional ELAN in this switch cloud.
Step 4
ATM(lane-config-database)#
nameelan -name1local-seg-
idsegment-number
Assigns a segment number to the first emulated Token Ring LAN in the configuration
database.
The segment number you specify for local-seg-id must be identical to the ring number
of the TrCRF. The set vlancommand assumes that any ring number you enter is in
hexadecimal. The name elan-name local-seg-id segment-number command assumes
that any value you enter for the local-seg-id is in decimal unless you enter it explicitly
in hexadecimal.
Step 5
ATM(lane-config-database)#
nameelan -name2local-seg-
idsegment-number
Assigns a segment number to the second emulated Token Ring LAN in the
configuration database.
The segment number you specify for local-seg-id must be identical to the ring number
of the TrCRF. The set vlancommand assumes that any ring number you enter is in
hexadecimal. The name elan-name local-seg-id segment-number command assumes
that any value you enter for the local-seg-id is in decimal unless you enter it explicitly
in hexadecimal.
Repeat this step, providing a different ELAN name and segment number for each
additional source-route bridged ELAN in this switch cloud.
Step 6
ATM(lane-config-database)#
default-nameelan-name
(Optional) Specifies a default ELAN for LECs not explicitly bound to an ELAN.
Step 7
ATM(lane-config-database)#
exit
Exits database configuration mode and returns to global configuration mode.
Setting Up the Database for Restricted-Membership ELANs
When you configure restricted-membership ELANs in the LECS database, you create database entries that
link the name of each ELAN to the ATM address of its LES/BUS.
Unlike unrestricted-membership, you must also specify where the LECs are located. That is, for each
restricted-membership ELAN, you provide a database entry that explicitly links the ATM address or MAC
address of each client of that ELAN with the name of that ELAN.
