Specifying a Virtual Connection Type
A service record can have either permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) or switched
virtual circuits (SVCs) -- but not both. SVC is the default value when signaling is
enabled on the interface. PVC is the default value when signaling is disabled on
the interface.
For additional information about virtual connection types, refer to Chapter 2.
Entering an Emulated LAN Name
Emulated LAN (ELAN) names are optional values (up to 128 alphanumeric
characters) that provide administrative assistance when distinguishing among
various ELANs. You can enter the name of an ELAN to which you want the LEC
to join.
If you choose not to enter an ELAN name, the LECS assigns the LE client to an
ELAN for this domain.
Defining an Emulated LAN Type
The emulated LAN type indicates the data frame format that the LEC uses when it
joins an emulated LAN. ATM allows you to choose from two emulated LAN
types: Unspecified and IEEE8023.
Unspecified, the default value, indicates that you want the client to obtain the
LAN type from the LAN emulation configuration server (LECS) when it joins an
emulated LAN. Setting this value to IEEE8023 specifies that you want the client
to join only Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) emulated LANs.
