10 — 9500 MPR VLAN service management
10.1
9500 MPR VLAN service management overview
VLANs are created to provide the segmentation services traditionally provided by
routers in LAN configurations. VLANs address issues such as scalability, security,
and network management. Routers in VLAN topologies provide broadcast filtering,
security, address summarization, and traffic flow management.
See chapter
See the "VLAN service management" chapter in the 5620 SAM User Guide for more
information about VLAN service creation.
Supported VLAN services types for 9500 MPR devices
The 5620 SAM supports the creation of the following VLAN service types for
9500 MPR devices:
•
9500 MPR P2P (dot1q) VLAN
•
9500 MPR P2MP (dot1q) VLAN
VLAN groups and paths
The 5620 SAM supports the configuration and provisioning of VLAN groups and
paths that are used by 9500 MPR ANSI/ETSI (2.x and 3.x streams) devices to
configure VLAN and VLL services.
9500 MPR VLAN groups
You can use VLAN groups to:
•
logically group 9500 MPR devices to represent a typical network topology. A
9500 MPR device cannot belong to more than one VLAN group.
•
manage the VLAN IDs that are assigned to 9500 MPR VLAN group members
See Procedure
10-2

for service creation information for 9500 MPR devices.
Note —
When you create a 9500 MPR service, it can only be
configured between 9500 MPRs that belong to the same VLAN
group.
