LAN Emulation Client (LEC)
The 6416SW contains an integrated ‘lite’ LEC that provides basic LAN emulation client
functions for use by an SNMP agent or for Internet FTP functions. Such functions
include Netview, TELNET, and TFTP. The LEC implementation is fully ATM Forum
compliant.
The maximum length of PING and TELNET messages depends on the maximum SDU
size supported on the corresponding emulated LAN. Table 1-2 lists the correspondence
(in bytes):

If a connection is lost between a LEC and a LAN emulation server (LES), the LEC will
attempt to reconnect 5 times, at intervals of 5 seconds. If the connection is not
re-established, the LEC will continue attempts to reconnect, at intervals of one minute.
