Service stitching – EPIPE/ELINE services

Service stitching algorithm for Epipe services

The following are the service stitching algorithm for Epipe services with their stitching criteria:

Algorithm	Stitching Criteria
route-target	sites must have inverse matching route-target values and inverse matching local/remote ac values
service-name	matching service-name
evi	sites must have matching evi values and inverse matching local/remote ac values
local	a single site with 2 access interfaces
vcid	site's tunnel binding must have matching vcid

Note: Route-target and evi algorithms are for EVPN-EPIPE and outside the scope of this document. Service stitching with the other 3 algorithms are documented below.

Service stitching with service-name algorithm

Services which are to be stitched with service-name algorithm should have same service names on the end sites.

Stitch the Epipe service created on MD NE using the following API:

POST: (https://{{server}}/restconf/data/nsp-service-intent:stitchservices)

BODY:

    { 
       "input":{ 
       "service-type":"eline", 
       "algorithm":"service-name",
       "sites":["92.168.96.190","92.168.96.46"]
       }
    }

RESPONSE:

    { 
       "response": { 
          "status": 0, 
          "startRow": 0, 
          "endRow": 0, 
          "totalRows": 1, 
          "data": "Successfully submitted to Job Manager for Service Stitch processing with Job Name: eline_service-name-1726659802472", 
          "errors": null 
       } 
    }

Ensure the service gets listed in the NSP Service Management in 'Unknown' state.

Service stitching with local algorithm

Stitch the Epipe service created on MD NE using the following API:

POST: (https://{{server}}/restconf/data/nsp-service-intent:stitchservices)

BODY:

    { 
       "input":{ 
       "service-type":"eline", 
       "algorithm":"local",
       "sites":["92.168.96.190"]
       }
    }

RESPONSE:

    { 
       "response": { 
          "status": 0, 
          "startRow": 0, 
          "endRow": 0, 
          "totalRows": 1, 
          "data": "Successfully submitted to Job Manager for Service Stitch processing with Job Name:"eline_local-1726669622177", 
          "errors": null 
       } 
    }

Ensure the service gets listed in the NSP Service Management in 'Unknown' state.

Service stitching with vcid algorithm

Stitch the Epipe service created on MD NE using the following API.

POST: (https://{{server}}/restconf/data/nsp-service-intent:stitchservices)

BODY:

    { 
       "input":{ 
       "service-type":"eline", 
       "algorithm":"vcid",
       "sites":["92.168.96.190","92.168.96.46"]
       }
    }

RESPONSE:

    { 
       "response": { 
          "status": 0, 
          "startRow": 0, 
          "endRow": 0, 
          "totalRows": 1, 
          "data": "Successfully submitted to Job Manager for Service Stitch processing with Job Name: eline_vcid-1725863475919", 
          "errors": null 
       } 
    }

Ensure the service gets listed in the NSP Service Management in 'Unknown' state.
