How do I navigate the service management views?
The service management views
NSP's service management function consists of the following views. You can navigate from one view to another by selecting from the drop-down menu.
Services view
The Services view displays a list of all existing services. Additional services can be created by clicking + CREATE in the top right corner.
Clicking 
(Table row actions) in-line with any service presents the following options:
If the service was created using NSP's service management function, rather than an integrated network management system (such as NFM-P), the following additional options will be presented:
Note: Users can select up to 10 services at a time to run the Audit Config action against.
If the service is not currently associated with any service template, the following additional option will be presented:
Note: Associating a service template with a brownfield service grants NSP complete life cycle management of the service, including the ability to perform CRUD operations. However, if a service template is applied to a service with attributes that the yang model has not been extended to support, those attributes will be lost should the service be subsequently removed from the network and redeployed. If the brownfield service originated from a model-driven device, then an API must be used to stitch orphan services prior to associating the service with a service template as described above.
Note: NSP does not support the modification of service names post-creation. Therefore, once a service template has been applied to a brownfield service, NFM-P should not be used to change that service's name. If a service's name changes, and NSP subsequently aligns that service by pushing to the network, the service will revert to its previous name.
Note: The services displayed in the service list are always grouped by service type, even when sorted based on other criteria. This means that - for example - you would see a sorted group of E-Line services followed by a sorted group of E-LAN services, and so on.
If the service is Aligned, the following additional option will be presented:
Note: Users can select up to 10 services at a time to run Align actions against.
Note: When an L2 microwave backhaul service is deleted from WebCT, the above Align operations won't push or pull the configuration changes to or from nodes. This is because the connect and deploy actions are performed by workflows, and workflows will not be triggered in this scenario. To restore the missing cross connections in NFM-P, service management's Edit and Deploy operations must be used.
If the service is associated with a service template, the following additional options will be presented:
Note: Users can select up to 10 services at a time to run the Unassociate or Migrate actions against.
Note: In order to be eligible for the Unassociate action, services must have at least one site and a life cycle state of 'Deployed'.
Depending on the Life Cycle State of the service, one or more of the following additional options will be presented:
Composite services view
The Composite services view displays a list of all existing composite services. Additional composite services can be created by clicking + CREATE in the top right corner.
Clicking (Table row actions) in-line with any composite service presents the same options as described in the
Services view section. Refer to that section for details.
Approved Misalignments view
The Approved Misalignments view displays a list of all misaligned attributes, missing objects, and undesired objects that have been approved by users. See How do I approve misalignments? for more information.
Ports view
The Ports view displays a list of all existing ports.
Clicking (Table row actions) in-line with any port presents the following options:
Clicking Services Using Port will display a list of the services that are using that port. Clicking Configure will open the Deploy Physical Configuration form. See the NSP Device Management Guide for more information about configuring this form.
If the port was configured using NSP's device management function, the following additional options will be presented:
LAGs view
The LAGs view displays a list of all existing LAGs.
When LAGs are selected, click (Table row actions), Services Using LAG in-line with any LAG to view a list of the services that are using that LAG.
Service Tunnels view
The Service Tunnels view displays a list of all existing service tunnels.
Clicking (Table row actions) in-line with any service tunnel presents the following options:
If the service tunnel was created using NSP, rather than an integrated network management system (such as NFM-P), the following additional option will be presented:
If the service tunnel is Aligned, the following additional option will be presented:
Depending on the Life Cycle State of the service tunnel, one or more of the following additional options will be presented:
L2 Service Endpoints view
The L2 Service Endpoints view displays a list of all existing L2 service endpoints.
Click Edit in-line with any L2 service endpoint to open the Update Service form.
Note: The endpoints displayed in the L2 Service Endpoints view are always grouped by parent service type, even when sorted based on other criteria. This means that - for example - you would see a sorted group of E-Line service endpoints followed by a sorted group of E-LAN service endpoints, and so on.
L3 Service Endpoints view
The L3 Service Endpoints view displays a list of all existing L3 service endpoints.
Click Edit in-line with any L3 service endpoint to open the Update Service form.
Note: The endpoints displayed in the L3 Service Endpoints view are always grouped by parent service type, even when sorted based on other criteria. This means that - for example - you would see a sorted group of E-Line service endpoints followed by a sorted group of E-LAN service endpoints, and so on.
Customers view
The Customers view displays a list of all existing customers.
When Customers are selected, clicking (Table row actions) in-line with any customer presents the following options:

The Network Policies view displays a list of all existing network policies, including routing policies and QoS policies.
Clicking (Table row actions) in-line with any network policy presents the following options:

Clicking (Table row actions), Delete in-line with any imported intent type removes that intent type from service management.
