b. Joining the ELAN named “S1Ethernet”.
The 5500 LEC can use ILMI to get the LECS address from the ATM
switch. Thereafter go through validation with the LECS on the policy
ELAN name to get the LES address, and finally join the LES/BUS for
S1Ethernet. The IBM 8270 MSS Client must go through the same
process to join the ELAN “S1TokenRing”.
c. Enable multiple IP connections between both the token-ring and
Ethernet workstations.
d. MPOA.
The MPS has to recognize both MPCs and establish communication for
the MPOA to work. The MPCs in the 5500 and MSS client have to work
together as well (for example signalling, etc.).
e. The token-ring to Ethernet address translation and frame fragmentation
must be addressed. In this example the MSS client does the frame
fragmentation
