Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes appropriate task
IDs. If the user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator
for assistance.
If the default service instance is the only one configured on a port, the encapsulation default command
matches all ingress frames on that port. If the default service instance is configured on a port that has other
non-default service instances, the encapsulation default command matches frames that are unmatched by
those non-default service instances (anything that does not meet the criteria of other services instances on the
same physical interface falls into this service instance).
Only a single default service instance can be configured per interface. If you attempt to configure more than
one default service instance per interface, the encapsulation default command is rejected.
Only one encapsulation command must be configured per service instance.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure a service instance on a port:
