ATMLink v1.1 Beta Release Note
---------------------------------------

The ATMLink software provides LAN Emulation that allows your ATM network
to operate like a local area network. To setup the ATMLink adapter for LAN
Emulation after you have installed and configured the software, you need to
execute the following procedure:

1.  The LES address of the Cellplex must have a valid ATM address in the
atm_hosts file, which normally lives in /usr/atml/cfg:


halibut% cat atm_hosts
#
#  ATM Hosts file
#
# hostname      type    atm_address
# e.g.
# moose         nsap    45000112149913884f44442222-00:20:ea:00:00:00-00
# fred          nsap    39-0000-00-000000-0000-0000-0000-00:20:ea:00:08:0e-0
0
#
#lecs  nsap 4700790000000000000000000000a03e00000100  * the default LECS
                                                        address
les1  nsap 4701000000000000000000000000c0da6000d300    * change it to LES
                                                        address in the VLAN

Instead of using the LECS default address, you need to define the LES
address in the CellPlex7000 that you are planning to connect to.

2.  Next, modify the usr/atml/bin/atmled.sh file, to point the LAN Emulation
daemon at the Cellplex LES, by specifying the "-s" flag with the LES name
assign in the atm_hosts file from step 1 ("les1" in the example above).

Change the second line in atmled.sh from:

        while [ 1 ]; do
           /usr/atml/bin/atmled -d 10 2>&1 > /dev/null | \
                         /usr/ucb/logger -p daemon.error -t atmled
           sleep 60
          /usr/ucb/logger -p daemon.error -t atmled "died ... restarting"
        done

to (by adding "-s les1")
:
        /usr/atml/bin/atmled -d 10 -s les1 2>&1 > /dev/null | \

By using the "-s" option, you can point the LEC at the LES.


3.  Modify /usr/atml/bin/atmlsd.sh as follows.  Change the second line to
specify the "-e" flag, with no parameters:

Change from:

          while [ 1 ]; do
             /usr/atml/bin/atmlsd -b 2>&1 | \
                    /usr/ucb/logger -p daemon.error -t atmlsd
            sleep 60
           /usr/ucb/logger -p daemon.error -t atmlsd "died ... restarting"
         done

to (by adding "-e"):

             /usr/atml/bin/atmlsd -e -b 2>&1 | \

4.  Reboot the machine.  This procedure only needs to be executed once after
the software install.  Once changed, the machine will automatically configure
and startup after booting.
