To configure a Service MAC list

Purpose

Use this procedure to configure a list of MAC addresses to be excluded from auto learn mac protect (ALMP). ALMP is used along with the Restrict Protected Source, Discard-Frame action to prevent specified MACs from moving across PEs. This is used to prevent loops or MAC spoofing attacks.

The list can be added to the FIB configuration of a VPLS L2 Access Interface or Spoke SDP Binding, to an SHG, or to a PW Template.
