2.1 SPB NNI Summary

The following chart displays the minimum items required to enable SPB minus the interface configuration.
Note this is a one-time configuration and once provisioned, only the services has to be provisioned on the
required SPB Backbone Edge Bridges.

Optional. By default the base MAC address will be used.
The System ID also known as B-MAC (Backbone MAC)
must be unique per SPB bridge. It is recommended to
change the System ID to an easy to recognize value to
help in troubleshooting.
Name used by the SPB bridge and must be unique per
SPB bridge.
To enable the ISIS protocol
Only one instance is supported.
Nick name used by the SPB bridge and must be unique
per SPB bridge.
Add the primary backbone VLAN and secondary
backbone VLAN IDs. The same primary and secondary
B-VLAN configuration must be provisioned the same on
all SPB bridges so that each bridge will make a similar
decision for computing routes and load-balancing traffic.
Each SMLT cluster switch must be peered with the
System ID (B-MAC) of its peer
