17. Select the Manual Session tab.
After successful tunnel connection and establishment, individual sessions can be created. Each session is a single data
stream. After successful session establishment, data corresponding to that session (pseudowire) can be transferred. If a
session is down, the pseudowire associated with it is shut down as well.

18. Refer to the following manual session configurations to determine whether a session should be created or modified:
Pseudowire ID Define a psuedowire ID for this session. A pseudowire is an emulation of a layer 2
point-to-point connection over a packet-switching network (PSN). A pseudowire was
developed out of the necessity to encapsulate and tunnel layer 2 protocols across a layer
3 network.
Traffic Source Type Lists the type of traffic tunnelled in this session.
Traffic Source Value Define a VLAN range to include in the tunnel session. Available VLAN ranges are from
1 - 4,094.
Native VLAN Select this option to provide a VLAN ID that will not be tagged in tunnel establishment
and packet transfer.
IP Address Lists the IP address assigned as the local tunnel end point address, not the interface IP
address. This IP is used as the tunnel source IP address. If this parameter is not specified,
the source IP address is chosen automatically based on the tunnel peer IP address. This
parameter is applicable when establishing the session and responding to incoming
requests.
