Changing the Security of an ELAN
You can change the security of an ELAN. By default, all ELANs are open ELANs 
when they are created. This means that any LEC can request to join the open ELAN.
If an ELAN is closed then only LECs that have client mappings to the ELAN will be 
able to access the secure ELAN. For more information about setting up client 
mappings, see Managing ELAN Clients later in this chapter.
