A single LAN emulation client may serve as the asynchronous transfer mode

imitates the functions of the LAN protocol, either token-ring or Ethernet,

adapter (IOA). LAN emulation client uses the following LAN emulation services

LAN emulation server, and LAN emulation broadcast and unknown server.</dd>

then translates LAN destinations to ATM addresses at the request of the clients.
