Context config>service
Description This command creates or edits a Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) instance. The vpls command 
is used to create or maintain a VPLS service. If the service-id does not exist, a context for the service 
is created. If the service-id exists, the context for editing the service is entered.
A VPLS service connects multiple customer sites together acting like a zero-hop, layer 2 switched 
domain. A VPLS is always a logical full mesh.
When a service is created, the create keyword must be specified if the create command is enabled in 
the environment context. When a service is created, the customer keyword and customer-id must be 
specified and associates the service with a customer. The customer-id must already exist having been 
created using the customer command in the service context. Once a service has been created with a 
customer association, it is not possible to edit the customer association. The service must be deleted 
and recreated with a new customer association.
Once a service is created, the use of the customer customer-id is optional for navigating into the 
service configuration context. Attempting to edit a service with the incorrect customer-id specified 
will result in an error.
More than one VPLS service may be created for a single customer ID. 
By default, no VPLS instances exist until they are explicitly created.
The no
 form of this command deletes the VPLS service instance with the specified service-id. The 
service cannot be deleted until all SAPs and SDPs defined within the service ID have been shutdown 
and deleted, and the service has been shutdown.
Parameters any  — Allows any SAP type. When svc-sap-type is set to any, for a NULL SAP, the system 
processes and forwards only packets with no VLAN tag (that is, untagged). All other packets 
with one or more VLAN tags (even those with priority tag only) are not processed and dropped. 
Users can use the service with svc- sap-type set to `null-star' to process and forward packets with 
one or more tags (including priority tag) on a null SAP.
Default null-star
service-id — The unique service identification number identifying the service in the service domain. 
This ID must be unique to this service and may not be used for any other service of any type. The 
service-id must be the same number used for every 7210 SAS on which this service is defined.
