To create an L2 access interface on a destination site
Note: You cannot create an L2 access interface on the site if you create an L2 access interface for redundancy in To create an endpoint for redundancy support on a mirror site .
For a 7210 SAS destination site in a mirror service, you can either create a SAP or specify a mirror SDP binding, but not both.
Steps
1 |
Choose Manage→Service→Mirror Services from the NFM-P main menu. The Manage Mirror Services form opens. |
2 |
Select a mirror service and click Properties. The Mirror Service (Edit) form opens. |
3 |
On the service navigation tree, expand Destination Sites→destination_site, right-click on L2 Access Interface (Test Equipment Interface), and choose Create L2 Access Interface. The L2 Access Interface (Create) form opens. |
4 |
To configure an endpoint for redundancy, click on the Select button in the Redundancy panel to select the desired endpoint. Note: If you select an endpoint for redundancy, the L2 access interface appears under the Endpoints object on the service navigation tree. |
5 |
Click on the Port tab. |
6 |
Select a port. Note: The form lists only ports in access or hybrid mode. To choose a port that is not listed, you must set the Mode parameter for the port to Access or Hybrid. After you do this, the port is listed when you click on the Search button. The form lists only ports that have the encapsulation type that you specified in the destination site creation, in To create a destination site on a mirror service |
7 |
Configure the required parameters. The Auto-Assign ID parameter is configurable if the port uses dot1q encapsulation. When the parameter is enabled, the NFM-P automatically configures the Outer Encapsulation Value parameter using the lowest unassigned value. Note: You can set the Auto-Assign ID parameter to be the default parameter for dot1q encapsulation by enabling the Access Interface Encap Value (Dot1q only) parameter on the User Preferences form. The Inner Encapsulation Value is configurable only when the port is an Ethernet or frame relay port with QinQ encapsulation. |
