Configuring Ethernet Port Parameters

Ethernet Network Port

A network port is network facing and participates in the service provider transport or
infrastructure network processes. The following example displays a network port configuration:
A:ALA-B>config>port# info

mode network
exit
no shutdown
----------------------------------------------
A:ALA-B>config>port#

Ethernet Access uplink Port

Access-uplink port are network facing and transport customer service. It allows only QinQ
encapsulation to be used.
A:ALA-B>config>port# info

A:ALA-B>config>port#

Ethernet Access Port

Services are configured on access ports used for customer-facing traffic. If a Service Access Port
(SAP) is to be configured on a port, it must be configured as access mode. When a port is
configured for access mode, the appropriate encapsulation type can be specified to distinguish the
services on the port. Once a port has been configured for access mode, multiple services may be
configured on the port.
The following example displays an Ethernet access port configuration :
*A:7210-SAS>config>port# info
