5.8 Configuring VPLS Components
This section describes how to configure v-VPLS and m-VPLS entities, including CLI 
command syntax and examples. For complete command and parameter 
descriptions see also the sections “VPLS Service CLI Command 
Reference”and “VPLS Service CLI Configuration Commands”.
This section provides information about configuring the following entities:
• Creating a VPLS Service
• Configuring Spanning Tree Protocols on m-VPLS
• Configuring v-VPLS/VPLS parameters
• Configuring VPLS SAPs
• Configuring VPLS SAP Parameters
• Configuring SAP-Specific STP Parameters
• Configuring SDP Bindings
5.8.1 Creating a VPLS Service
Only one m-VPLS service is configured per ISAM, using the default customer ID 1.
Note that in the CLI syntax example, customer ID must be specified when creating 
the service, but is optional when modifying an existing service.
configure service vpls <service-id> customer {1 | <customer-id>} {m-vpls - | 
v-vpls <vlan-id>}
The following is an example of a basic m-VPLS configuration. Note that the 
description can only be added and the admin state changed to up using the [no] 
shutdown command, after the service is created.
