LECS Search Policy
You can configure the LECS search policy.
Display LECS Search
Policy
Display the search policy of the resident LECS, according to which a LES
address is assigned to a LEC that requests to join an ELAN.
When a LEC applies to the LECS to join an ELAN, it can supply the
following information to assist the LECS:
The ATM address of the LES with which it wants to communicate over
an ELAN
The MAC address of the LES with which it wants to communicate over
an ELAN
The name of the ELAN it wants to join
Accordingly, there are three possible search policies that the LECS can
execute:
1
The LECS searches for an ELAN whose LES has the required ATM address.
2
The LECS searches for an ELAN that contains the LES with the required
MAC address.
3
The LECS searches for an ELAN with the required name.
These three policies are tried by the LECS in order. If one does not
succeed, the next is tried.
