IES Interface Commands
Page 540  7210-SAS M Services Guide
A VPLS service associated with the specified name that does not have the allow-ip-int-binding flag 
set or a non-VPLS service associated with the name will be ignored and will not be attached to the IP 
interface.
If the service name is applied to a VPLS service after the service name is bound to an IP interface and 
the VPLS service allow-ip-int-binding flag is set at the time the name is applied, the VPLS service is 
automatically resolved to the IP interface if the interface is administratively up or when the interface 
is placed in the administratively up state.
If the service name is applied to a VPLS service without the allow-ip-int-binding flag set, the system 
does not attempt to resolve the applied service name to an existing IP interface bound to the name. To 
rectify this condition, the flag must first be set and then the IP interface must enter or reenter the 
administratively up state.
While the specified service name may be assigned to only one service context in the system, it is 
possible to bind the same service name to more than one IP interface. If two or more IP interfaces are 
bound to the same service name, the first IP interface to enter the administratively up state (if 
currently administratively down) or to reenter the administratively up state (if currently 
administratively up) when a VPLS service is configured with the name and has the allow-ip-
intbinding flag set will be attached to the VPLS service. Only one IP interface is allowed to attach to 
a VPLS service context. No error is generated for the remaining non-attached IP interfaces using the 
service name.
Once an IP interface is attached to a VPLS service, the name associated with the service cannot be 
removed or changed until the IP interface name binding is removed. Also, the allow-ip-int-binding 
flag cannot be removed until the attached IP interface is unbound from the service name. Unbinding 
the service name from the IP interface causes the IP interface to detach from the VPLS service 
context. The IP interface may then be bound to another service name or a SAP or SDP binding may 
be created for the interface using the sap or spoke-sdp commands on the interface.
Default none
Parameters service-name — The service-name parameter is required when using the IP interface vpls command 
and specifies the service name that the system will attempt to resolve to an allow-ip-int-binding 
enabled VPLS service associated with the name. The specified name is expressed as an ASCII string 
comprised of up to 32 characters. It does not need to already be associated with a service and the 
system does not check to ensure that multiple IP interfaces are not bound to the same name.

optional filter overrides.
