Configuring VLAN Stacking Services

Configuring a VLAN Stacking Ethernet service requires several steps. These steps are outlined here and
further described throughout this section. For a brief tutorial on configuring a VLAN Stacking service, see
"Quick Steps for Configuring VLAN Stacking" on page
1
Create an SVLAN. An SVLAN is associated to a VLAN Stacking service to carry customer or
provider traffic. See
2
Create a VLAN Stacking service. A service name is associated with an SVLAN to identify the
customer traffic that the SVLAN will carry through the provider network. See
Stacking Service" on page
3
Configure Network Network Interface (NNI) ports. An NNI port is associated with an SVLAN and
carries the encapsulated SVLAN traffic through the provider network. See
Network Ports" on page
4
Configure a VLAN Stacking service access point (SAP). A SAP binds UNI ports, the type of
customer traffic, and traffic engineering parameter attributes to the VLAN Stacking service. Each SAP is
associated to one service name, but a single service can have multiple SAPs to which it is associated. See
"Configuring a VLAN Stacking Service Access Point" on page
5
Configure User Network Interface (UNI) ports. One or more UNI ports are associated with a SAP to
identify to the service which ports will receive customer traffic that the service will process for tunneling
through the provider network. When a UNI port is associated with a SAP, the SAP parameter attributes
are applied to traffic received on the UNI port. See
page 33-17.
6
Associate CVLAN traffic with a SAP. This step specifies the type of traffic customer traffic that is
allowed on UNI ports and then tunneled through the SVLAN. The type of customer traffic is associated
with a SAP and applies to all UNI ports associated with the same SAP. See
Customer Traffic to Tunnel" on page
7
Define SAP profile attributes. A SAP profile contains traffic engineering attributes for specifying
bandwidth sharing, rate limiting, CVLAN translation or double-tagging, and priority bit mapping. A
default profile is automatically associated with a SAP at the time the SAP is created. As a result, it is only
necessary to configure a SAP profile if the default attribute values are not sufficient. See
Service Access Point Profile" on page
8
Define UNI profile attributes. A default UNI profile is automatically assigned to a UNI port at the
time a port is configured as a VLAN Stacking UNI. This profile determines how control frames received
on the port are processed. It is only necessary to configure a UNI profile if the default attribute values are
not sufficient. See "Configuring a UNI Profile" on page
