Configuring SVLANs
There are three kinds of SVLANs: one that carries customer traffic, one that carries provider management
traffic, and one that carries IP Multicast VLAN traffic (IPMVLAN). SVLANs are not configurable or
modifiable using standard VLAN commands. The exception to this is that it is possible to configure an IP
interface for a provider management SVLAN. However, traffic is not routed on this interface.
The ethernet-service command is used to create an SVLAN. This command provides parameters to spec-
ify the type of SVLAN: svlan (customer traffic), management-vlan (provider management traffic), or
ipmv (IP Multicast traffic). For example, the following commands create a customer SVLAN, manage-
ment SVLAN, and IP Multicast VLAN:
-> ethernet-service svlan 300
-> ethernet-service management-vlan 200
-> ethernet-service impv 500
Similar to standard VLANs, the administrative and Spanning Tree status for the SVLAN is enabled by
default and the SVLAN ID is used as the default name. The ethernet-service svlan command also
provides parameters for changing any of these status values and the name. These are the same parameters
that are used to change these values for standard VLANs. For example, the following commands change
the administrative and Spanning Tree status and name for SVLAN 300:
Commands Used for ...
ethernet-service Creating SVLANs to tunnel customer or manage-
ment traffic or an IP Multicast VLAN for distrib-
uting multicast traffic.
ethernet-service service-name Creating a VLAN Stacking service and associat-
ing the service with an SVLAN or IP multicast
VLAN.
ethernet-service svlan nni Configuring a switch port as a VLAN Stacking
NNI port and associating the NNI port with an
SVLAN.
ethernet-service nni Configuring a vendor TPID and legacy Spanning
Tree or GVRP support for an NNI port.
ethernet-service sap Creating a VLAN Stacking SAP and associates
the SAP with a VLAN Stacking service name.
ethernet-service sap uni Configuring a switch port as a VLAN Stacking
UNI port and associating the UNI port with a
VLAN Stacking SAP.
ethernet-service sap cvlan Specifying the type of customer traffic that is
accepted on SAP UNI ports.
ethernet-service sap-profile Configures traffic engineering attributes for cus-
tomer traffic that is accepted on SAP UNI ports.
ethernet-service sap sap-profile Associates a VLAN Stacking SAP with a profile.
ethernet-service uni-profile Configures how protocol control frames are pro-
cessed on VLAN Stacking UNI ports.
ethernet-service uni uni-profile Associates a VLAN Stacking UNI port with a
profile.
