Description This command configures an Epipe service instance. This command is used to configure a point-to-
point epipe service. An Epipe connects two endpoints defined as Service Access Points (SAPs). Both 
SAPs may be defined in one 7210 SAS. 
No MAC learning or filtering is provided on an Epipe.
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.
By default, no epipe services exist until they are explicitly created with this command.
The no form of this command deletes the epipe service instance with the specified service-id. The 
service cannot be deleted until the service has been shutdown.
Parameters 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 on which this service is defined.
Values 1 — 2147483648
epipe customer
any — 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
create — Keyword used to create the service instance. The create keyword requirement can be 
enabled/disabled in the environment>create context.
customer customer-id — Specifies the customer ID number to be associated with the service. This 
parameter is required on service creation and optional for service editing or deleting.
