LAN Emulation Client Configuration LANE defines three (potential) mechanisms which the LE Client will use to find the LE Configuration Server; it then setups a VCC to the LECS in order to send a Configure-Request and receive a Configure-Response; the information in the Configure-Request/Reply allows the LE client to bootstrap itself with configuration information. The three mechanisms are: an ILMI MIB object containing the ATM address of the LECS, a well-known ATM address (which we hope will become an anycast address in future) for the LECS, and a PVC with well-known VPI/VCI values (VPI=0, VCI=17). The LE Client tries each of these in turn until one of them works. (Thanks to Keith McCloghrie for the above text which appeared on the IP over ATM mailing list)
