Creating an Emulated LAN IP Over ATM and LANE
3.2.4 Distributed LANE Services
LANE services (LECS, LES, and BUS) can reside on different SmartSwitch 6500s. For example, the LECS can reside
on one SmartSwitch 6500, while the LES and BUS reside on another. Use the
add lecselan , add leselan , and add
buselan to distribute LANE services among SmartSwitch 6500s.
The following steps create an ELAN with the LECS on switch SW1 and the LES and BUS on switch SW2.
1. Use the add buselan command to create the BUS on switch SW2:
SW2 # add buselan
ELANNumber(0) : 1 < We’ll use ELAN number = 1 throughout the example
ELANName(ELAN001) : mis1 < We’ll call the ELAN “mis1” throughout the example

2. Use the add leselan command to create an LES on switch SW2:
SW2 # add leselan
ELANNumber(0) : 1
ELANName(ELAN001) : mis1

3. Use the show leselan command on SW2 to obtain the ATM address of the LES:
SW2 # show leselan 1
ELAN : mis1
ELAN Number : 1
ELAN Name : mis1
ATM Address : 39:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:14:41:80:00:20:D4:14:41:81 < ATM address of LES
