Chapter 11 Configuring Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVCs)
Configuring EFPs
•
The switch does not support overlapping configurations on the same interface and same bridge
domain. If you have configured a VLAN range encapsulation, or encapsulation default, or
encapsulation any on service instance 1, you cannot configure any other encapsulations that also
match previous encapsulations in the same interface and bridge domain. See the
“Examples of
Unsupported Configurations” section on page 11-13
.
Creating Service Instances
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create an EFP service instance:
Command
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface interface-id
Specify the port to attach to the policy map, and enter interface
configuration mode. Valid interfaces are physical ports.
Step 3
switchport mode trunk
Configure the interface as a trunk port, required for EFP
configuration.
Step 4
switchport trunk allowed vlan none
Configure the trunk port to have no allowed VLANs.
Step 5
service instance number ethernet [name]
Configure an EFP (service instance) and enter service instance
configuration) mode.
•
The number is the EFP identifier, an integer from 1 to 4000.
•
(Optional) ethernet name is the name of a previously
configured EVC. You do not need to use an EVC name in a
service instance.
Step 6
encapsulation {default | dot1q |
priority-tagged | untagged}
Configure encapsulation type for the service instance.
•
default—Configure to match all unmatched packets.
•
dot1q—Configure 802.1Q encapsulation. See
Table 11-1
for
details about options for this keyword.
•
priority-tagged—Specify priority-tagged frames, VLAN-ID
0 and CoS value of 0 to 7.
•
untagged—Map to untagged VLANs. Only one EFP per port
can have untagged encapsulation.
Step 7
bridge-domain bridge-id [split-horizon group
group-id]
Configure the bridge domain ID. The range is from 1 to 8000.
Before configuring bridge domains with values less than 4095,
you must disable IGMP snooping on the switch or on the VLAN
by entering the no ip igmp snooping [vlan vlan-id] global
configuration command.
•
(Optional) split-horizon group group-id—Configure a
split-horizon group. The group ID is from 1 to 3. EFPs in the
same bridge domain and split-horizon group cannot forward
traffic between each other, but can forward traffic between
other EFPs in the same bridge domain but not in the same
split-horizon group.
Note
You must configure encapsulation before the
bridge-domain keyword is available.
