Abstract

See full text

A system and method are disclosed for transferring an enhanced LAN Emulation Client from a first LAN Emulation Server to a second LAN Emulation Server. The addresses of the first LES and the second LES are determined at an LECS. The first LES and the second LES are connected to the LECS. The addresses of the first LES and the second LES are sent to the enhanced LEC so that the addresses of the first LES and the second LES may be stored at the enhanced LEC. When the enhanced LEC determines that the first LES has failed, the address of the second LES is looked up at the enhanced LEC and the enhanced LEC connects to the second LES.
