To associate an access interface with a VLAN service

Purpose

Associate access interfaces with VLAN services. These access interfaces are the physical ports to which end users connect. Use the L2 Interfaces tab on the VLAN properties form to associate VLAN services with the ports used by end users.

Steps
 

Choose Manage→Service→Services from the NFM-P main menu. The Manage Services form opens.


Select a VLAN service.


On the service navigation tree, expand the site on which you want to associate the new access interface, right-click on L2 Access Interfaces and choose Create VLAN Access Interface. The VLAN Access Interface (Create) form opens.


Configure the required general parameters.


Click on the Port tab and select a port for the VLAN access interface.

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.

To configure an access interface, a L2 VPN TLS VLAN user port must be created. See To create an OmniSwitch L2 VPN TLS VLAN service .


Configure the required parameters.


Save the changes and close the forms.
