There is a LANE internal function called ARP that is not the same as
IP ARP. Instead, it is used for LANE components to fit one another.
The clue for layering anything is to consider the service interface
it presents to the layer above it. LANE provides a data link service
interface.

ATM and LANE don't really fit the traditional OSI model, although
there are extensions that do. ATM, in the terminology of the Internal
Organization of the Network Layer, is a subnetwork access protocol:
Technology-independent logical networking (IP, IPX, CLNP, etc.)
Subnetwork convergence protocol that maps logical to
transmission system
Subnetwork Access Protocol
Connection ID (transient): AAL5
Persistent endpoint IDs: Q.2931 setup
