Chapter 3 Creating a FlexUNI/EVC Ethernet Policy
Setting the FlexUNI Attributes
Note Also, some attributes are supported only on IOS or IOS XR platforms. Attributes apply to both
platforms, unless otherwise noted. All platform-specific attributes are visible in the policy workflow
windows. Later, when a service request is created based on the policy (and specific devices are
associated with the service request), platform-specific attributes are filtered from service request
windows, depending on the device type (IOS or IOS XR).
Step 4 Check the Configure With Bridge Domain check box to determine bridge domain characteristics.
The behavior of the Configure With Bridge-Domain option works in tandem with the choice you selected
in the MPLS Core Connectivity Type option, as follows.
• PSEUDOWIRE as the MPLS Core Connectivity Type. There are two cases:
A. With FlexUNI:
– If Configure With Bridge Domain is checked, the policy configures pseudowires under SVIs
associated to the bridge domain.
– If Configure With Bridge Domain is unchecked, the policy will configure pseudowires
directly under the service instance. This conserves the global VLAN.
B. Without FlexUNI:
– If Configure With Bridge Domain is checked, the policy configures pseudowires as in L2VPN
services (with SVIs).
– If Configure With Bridge Domain is unchecked, the policy configures pseudowires directly
under subinterfaces.
Only pseudowires can be either configured directly under service instance of the corresponding
FlexUNI-capable interface or under SVIs associated to the bridge domain.
• LOCAL as the MPLS Core Connectivity Type:
– If Configure With Bridge Domain is checked, the policy allows either point-to-point or
multipoint local connect services.
– If Configure With Bridge Domain is unchecked, ISC allows only point-to-point local connects
without bridge domain.
• VPLS—Configure With Bridge Domain is checked by default and non-editable.
Step 5 Click Next.
The EVC Policy Editor - FlexUNI Attribute window appears, as shown in Figure 3-3 .
Step 6 Continue with the steps contained in the next section, Setting the FlexUNI Attributes, page 3-10 .
