Any ATM switch with UNI 3.0/3.1 and Interim Local Management Interface (ILMI) support for
communicating the LECS address
Note
If you plan to run both Ethernet and Token Ring LANE, the Ethernet LANE software and the Token Ring
LANE software must be run on separate ATM modules.
Token Ring LANE Configuration Task List
Note
There can be multiple LECSs in an ATM cloud.
Before configuring Token Ring LANE, you must first open a session with the ATM module in the Catalyst
5000 series switch by entering the session line configuration command from the supervisor Console>
prompt. After opening the session, you see the ATM> prompt. You only have direct access to the ATM
module with which you have established a session.
Note
The ATM module uses a subset of the Cisco IOS software. Generally, the Cisco IOS software works the
same on the ATM module as it does on routers. After configuring the ATM module, you are ready to
implement LANE.

Opening a Session from the Switch to the ATM Module
Use the session mod_num line configuration command to open a session to the ATM module from the
Catalyst 5000 family switch in which the module is installed.
This example shows how to create a session to an ATM module installed in slot 5 of the Catalyst 5000
switch:
Console> (enable) session 5
Trying ATM-5...
