lecs Atm Addr Config Mask

1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.38.1.2.4.1.2

An ATM address mask associated with the LEC ATM address of this entry. Bits in this mask that are set to zero indicate that corresponding bit locations in the comparison ATM address are to be ignored for the purposes of matching. A mask of all zeros would be the trivial case of having all comparisons match while a mask of all ones indicates that the two ATM addresses must match exactly. This object is useful due to the fact that ATM addresses are a composite negotiated by the switch and connected device. Wild carding the prefix of an addresses indicates a preference of where a LEC is to join regardless of what switch it is attached from. Wildcarding the ESI and selector byte indicates that a LEC is to join a certain ELAN based on what switch it is attached to.
