How do I create an L3 VPN service?

Purpose

Use this procedure to create an L3 VPN service. The set of parameters that are available to you is dependant on the intent type that is associated with the service template you select, and may differ from those described in this procedure, which assumes the Nokia-provided L3 VPN template is being used.

Before attempting to perform this procedure, ensure that you have read Service creation prerequisites.

Note: The creation of L3 VPN services is included in Nokia's NSP Use Case Catalog as UCC-15. For more information about obtaining access to the catalog and its materials, contact your Nokia sales representative.
