Operator Parameters/Permissions Description
add
wellknownaddress
[WellKnownAddress]
<clientatmaddress>
[RegisteredAddress]
<serveratmaddress>
Administrator
Maps well-known address to the registered address of the
server. This only can be done one address at a time,
although you can add multiple well-known addresses. This
mapping translates incoming call setups using the
well-known address to the registered address of the server.
Using a well-known address for the server provides
location independence for accessing services (such as
LECS). You are automatically assigned an address ID
number when entering this command. This ID is useful
when deleting well-known addresses, because you have to
type only the ID number and not the whole ATM address.
Specifically for the LECS, you can map the well-known
LECS address to the registered LECS address manually.
Once the mapping is set, if the client fails to get the address
through ILMI (integrated local management interface), it
tries the well-known address. You can configure the server
(LECS) anywhere in the network. Some applications
expect to address packets to the well-known address.
Clients use the same well-known address, so the location of
the server does not matter. The AFI byte is set to 47 to
indicate this is a well-known address.
delete
wellknownaddress
[WellKnownAddrId]
<addressid>
Administrator
Deletes the mapping between one well-known address and
its registered address of an entity (such as LECS). Enter
show wellknownaddress
before entering this command to
display the ID number to use as input.
show
wellknownaddress
All Displays the mapping between the well-known address and
the registered address of an entity (such as LECS). It also
shows whether the address is dynamic or static. It lists all
well-known addresses currently active. It is used for
autodiscovery of the LECS by LANE clients.
flush
wellknownaddress
[RouteType] <routetype>
Administrator
Flushes all well-known addresses on the switch. Enter
flush wellknownaddress with caution because it deletes
all addresses of the indicated route type within the one
command. This is the fast method of deleting a set of
well-known addresses.
