Context configure>service
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 are defined in separate edge node devices connected over the 
service provider network. The far end SAP is generalized into a Service Distribution Point 
(SDP). This SDP describes a destination node and the encapsulation method used to reach it.
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 customercustomer-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.
