split-horizon-group group-name — Specifies the name of the split horizon group to which the SDP
belongs.
vc-type — This command overrides the default VC type signaled for the spoke or mesh binding to
the far end of the SDP. The VC type is a 15 bit-quantity containing a value which represents the
type of VC. The actual signaling of the VC type depends on the signaling parameter defined for
the SDP. If signaling is disabled, the vc-type command can still be used to define the dot1q value
expected by the far-end provider equipment. A change of the bindings VC type causes the
binding to signal the new VC type to the far end when signaling is enabled.
VC types are derived according to IETF draft-martini-l2circuit-trans-mpls.
• The VC type value for Ethernet is 0x0005.
• The VC type value for an Ethernet VLAN is 0x0004.
Values ether, vlan
vlan — Defines the VC type as VLAN. The ethernet and vlan keywords are mutually exclusive.
When the VC type is not defined then the default is Ethernet for spoke SDP bindings.
The VLAN VC-type requires at least one dot1Q tag within each encapsulated Ethernet packet
transmitted to the far end.
