Configure a Global I-SID Name
Use this procedure to provide a descriptive name for the Service Identifier (I-SID).
You can configure a service name for I-SIDs, loopback interfaces, and static routes. You can configure the service name can before or after you create the I-SID for the following services:
- Layer 2 VSN
- Layer 3 VSN
- ELAN I-SID or Switched UNI I-SID
- ELAN transparent I-SID or Transparent UNI I-SID
- IPv4 and IPv6 static routes
- IPv4 and IPv6 loopback CLIP interface
Note
The service name for I-SIDs does not support the following special characters: “ ” # $ % ‘ / [ \ ] ^ { | } ~ @.
By default, the service name is ISID-x, where x correlates to the I-SID number of the service.
