Ethernet Services Overview
Users can define up to 64 Ethernet services. Each service constitutes a virtual bridge that defines the connectivity
between logical ports in the PTP 820G or PTP 820F network element.
This version of PTP 820G and PTP 820F supports the following service types:
•
Multipoint (MP)
•
Point-to-Point (P2P)
•
Management (MNG)
In addition to user-defined services, PTP 820G and PTP 820F contains a pre-defined management service (Service
ID 1025). By default, this service is operational.
Note
You can use the management service for in-band management. For instructions on configuring in-
band management, see
Configuring In-Band Management
A service point is a logical entity attached to a physical or logical interface. Service points define the movement of
frames through the service. Each service point includes both ingress and egress attributes. A Point-to-Point or
Multipoint service can hold up to 32 service points. A Management service can hold up 30 service points.

Description for the product you are using.
