You can configure 4000 bridge domains on the ME 3600X switch.
On the ME 3800X switch, the number of bridge domains that you can configure depends on the
license that is installed on the switch:
– The metro services licenses support 4000 bridge domains.
– The metro IP services licenses support 2000 bridge domains.
– The metro aggregation services license supports 4000 bridge domain and the scaled version
supports 8000 bridge domains.
All licenses support a maximum of 64 EFPs per bridge domain.
You can configure a service instance only on trunk ports with no allowed VLANs. Any other
configuration is not allowed. To configure a service instance on an interface, these commands are
prerequisites:
Switch (config)# interface gigabitethernet0/2
Switch (config-if)# switchport mode trunk
Switch (config-if)# switchport allowed vlan none
After you have configured a service instance on an interface, switchport commands are not allowed
on that interface.
You must configure encapsulation on a service instance before configuring bridge domain.
When you configure aa bridge domain between 1 and 4094, IGMP snooping is automatically
disabled on the VLAN.
The native VLAN ID specified in switchport trunk native vlan-id is not used by EVC.
ISL trunk encapsulation is not supported.
When an EFP encapsulation is the default (matching or allowing all ingress frames), you cannot
configure any other encapsulation on an EFP on the same port and bridge-domain as the default
encapsulation. There can be only one default encapsulation per port.
