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

Choose a VPRN service and click Properties. The VPRN Service (Edit) form opens.

Click on the Sites tab, choose a VPRN site, and click Properties. The VPRN Site (Edit) form opens.

Click on the Routing tab and configure the Carrier Carrier VPN parameter.

The Carrier Carrier VPN parameter is configurable only if there are no other interfaces configured on the site.

Close the form.

On the VPRN Service (Edit) form, click on the Interfaces tab, then on the Network Interfaces tab and click Create. The Network Interface (Create) form opens.

Configure the required general parameters.

Configure the parameters in the Unicast RPF panel.

Configure the parameters in the NTP panel.

To configure Cflowd sampling:

1. Click Create in the Cflowd Sampling panel. The Cflowd Sampling (Create) form opens.

2. Configure the required parameters and click Apply. The Cflowd sampling object appears in the Cflowd Sampling panel.

3. To associate a service template with the Cflowd sampling object, select the newly created Cflowd sampling object and click Properties. The Cflowd Sampling (Edit) form opens.

4. Save your changes.

Configure the port.

1. Click on the Port tab.

2. Choose a terminating port for the interface in the Terminating Port panel and configure the required parameters.

   Note:

   If the Loopback Enabled parameter is selected on the General tab, the Port port tab does not appear.

   If you Clear or change the port associated with an existing Network Interface, the Network Policy associated to the Network interface remains but all the redirect information is cleared. This includes the Egress Queue Group Template Policy and its Egress Queue Group Instance ID, as well as the Ingress Queue Group Template Policy and its Ingress Queue Group Instance ID. These will subsequently need to be reconfigured if required.

Click on the Policies tab to select the network policy, the queue group template policies for the ingress forwarding plane redirect and egress port redirect, and the ingress and egress IP and IPv6 ACL policies.

Network policies are used to determine QoS settings based on the packet DSCP bits on the ingress and egress of the network.

Only global Ingress Queue Group Template Policies that have already been defined can be chosen. Queue group template policies allow SAP or IP interface forwarding classes to be redirected from the typical queue mapping to a shared queue.

Only local Egress Queue Group Template Policies which have a Network Egress Queue Group Instance defined on the associated port can be chosen.

Note: If you select a network policy with a forwarding class mapped to a queue group queue ID, you must ensure that the mapping queue group queue ID is in the selected Queue Group Template Policy.

If you need to add or remove a Port Redirect Group (queue or policer) to or from any of the Ingress or Egress Forwarding Classes in the global copy of the Network Policy, you must first define or remove the queue or policer in the global copy of the Egress Queue Group Template Policy.

You must ensure that the port you selected has a network egress queue group with the same name as the Queue Group Template policy created on it.

If the Network Policy you selected has Port Redirect Groups on its Ingress or Egress Forwarding Classes, you must specify both an Ingress or Egress Queue Group Template Policy and Instance ID. The Port Redirect Groups must already be defined within the Ingress or Egress Queue Group Template Policy you select. The default policy does not contain any redirects.

Queue Group Template policies are not applicable to L3 interfaces associated with HSMDA ports.

See To configure Ethernet ports for more information about how to configure Ethernet ports. See Chapter 49, Policies overview for more information about queue group template policies.

To assign a non-default DoS protection policy or DDoS protection policy to the interface, click on the Security tab and select a DOS policy and NE DDos protection policy in the NE Protection panel.

To configure BFD for the interface, click on the BFD tab and configure the required parameters.

Note: You cannot configure BFD for the interface if BFD is disabled. See Chapter 28, Routing protocol configuration for information about enabling and disabling BFD for routing protocols.

To view local and remote session peers that are managed by the NFM-P, click on the BFD Session tab, choose a session and click Properties. View the following and close the form:

• BFD status

• protocol used

• local address

• remote address

• operational status and statistics

To configure ARP, click on the ARP tab and configure the Timeout (seconds) parameter.

1. Click Create to statically associate an IP or MAC address to the interface, and configure the required parameters.

2. Close the form.

Click on the Addresses tab to assign IP addresses to the interface:

1. Click Create. The IP Address, routing instance (Create) form opens.

2. Configure the required parameters.

3. Save the changes and close the form.

Click on the ICMP tab and configure the required ICMP parameters.

Save the changes and close the forms.
