Setting the Interface Attributes
This step of creating the FlexUNI/EVC Ethernet policy involves setting the interface attributes, as shown
in the EVC Policy Editor - Interface Attribute window in
. The attributes you can configure in
this window are grouped under the following categories:
•
N-PE/U-PE information
•
Speed and duplex information
•
ACL name and MAC addresses
•
UNI port security
•
Storm control
•
L2 protocol tunneling
In some cases, checking an attribute causes additional attributes to appear in the GUI. This is covered in
the steps that follow.
Note
If the CE is directly connected to an N-PE, only speed, duplex, UNI shutdown, and other generic options
are presented. In this case, port security, storm control, L2 protocol tunneling, and other advanced
features are not supported due to the current platform limitations. If these features are needed for a
service, the service provider must deploy Layer 2 Ethernet access nodes beyond the FlexUNI to support
these requirements.
Note
Attributes available in the Interface Attributes window dynamically change based on the choice made
for the MPLS Core Connectivity Type (PSEUDOWIRE, LOCAL, or VPLS) in the Service Options
window (see
Setting the Service Options, page 3-8
). For completeness, all attributes available for the
different core types are documented in the following steps. Attributes apply to all core types, unless
otherwise noted.
