LECSELANPolicy
LECSELANPolicy
Use LECSELANPolicy to manage the ELAN assignment policy table. ELAN policies determine how LANE clients
are configured (assigned) to ELANs by the LECS. The LECS uses the policy with the highest priority first, the policy
with the second highest priority next, and so on. If the LECS cannot make an assignment using any of the policies, the
client is assigned to the default ELAN. If there is no default ELAN, the configuration request is dropped.
Note The ELAN policy table allows you to set up priorities for each of the policies.
Priorities are numbers in the range 1-65000. Lower numbers represent higher
priorities. If more than one policy is set up to have the same priority, then each of
the policies must be able to assign the client to the same ELAN. If that is not the
case, the next lower priority policy is used to decide the assignment.
