VCID pools

VCID pools contain VCID that can be used in a VLL or VPLS instance. You may create a combined
VCID pool containing VCIDs that are shared by VLL and VPLS, or you may create a segmented VCID
pool that provides separate VCID pools for VLL and VPLS configurations.

Viewing, creating, and deleting VCID pools

To view a VCID Pool and to create or delete VCID pools, do the following:

1. Select Configure > MPLS > VCID Pool.

The VCID Pool dialog box displays (
