I've got an ATM network consisting of an 8510 switch at the central site, connecting to about a dozen remote sites, most of which have
8510s and 3640 routers. All of the ATM configurations were done before I started here, and I haven't really had much experience with ATM.I've been asked to find a way to assign ports at the central site to a particular vlan from each of the remote sites. The reason for this is we're replacing servers at each of the remote sites, and it would be much easier for the person setting them up to do all of the work at the central site. From what I've seen, I understand that I'll need to set up LANE. I've read the Cisco guide on LANE setup, and I'd like someone to verify whether or not I'm on the right track. Here's what I've got:
-------------- remote site

questions:
- should these config changes work? The vlans in question wouldn't be
1, it would be more something like 945. Do I have to use the vlan number in the config somewhere?- in order to get this working to other remote sites, I would do them the same way as the first remote site, and I wouldn't need any further changes to the central site, correct?
- will this disrupt current operations to the remote site? This is a production network.
Thank you!
