Chapter 10 Managing a VPLS Service Request

Creating a VPLS Service Request with a CE

Note

When you provision an ERMS (EVP-LAN) service (and when you choose a UNI for a particular device),
ISC determines if there are other services using the same UNI. If so, a warning message is displayed. If
you ignore the message and save the service request, all of the underlying service requests lying on the
same UNI are synchronized with the modified shared attributes of the latest service request. In addition,
the state of the existing service requests is changed to the Requested state.

Step 11

Click Select one circuit in the Circuit Selection column.

The Select NPC window appears. If only one NPC exists for the chosen CE and CE interface, that NPC
is automatically populated in the Circuit Selection column and you need not choose it explicitly.

Step 12

Choose the name of the NPC from the Select column.

Step 13

Click OK.

Each time you choose a CE and its interface, the NPC that was precreated from this CE and interface is
automatically displayed under Circuit Selection. (See

Figure 10-6

.) This means that you do not have to

further specify the PE to complete the link.

Step 14

If you want to review the details of this NPC, click Circuit Details in the Circuit Details column.

The NPC Details window appears and lists the circuit details for this NPC.

Step 15

The Circuit ID is created automatically, based on the VLAN data for the circuit.

Step 16

To edit values that were set by the VPLS policy, that is, the values that were marked “editable” during
the VPLS policy creation, click the Edit link in the Link Attributes column for a link.

The Link Attributes window appears.
