Configure UNI

Before you begin

You must enable Flex UNI to create a Switched UNI service.

About this task

Use the following procedure to configure a Transparent Port UNI or Switched UNI by mapping an I-SID to a port or MLT and VLAN together.

Note

Note

If you configure a T-UNI to terminate on a port or MLT on a switch in a vIST switch cluster, you must also configure the T-UNI I-SID on the other switch of the vIST switch cluster. You must configure the T-UNI I-SID on both switches of a vIST pair. You do not need to assign an actual port or MLT to the T-UNI on the second switch.

You must first create a type of service instance identifier (I-SID) to create the different types of services available. After you create an I-SID you can add members (ports or MLTs) to the I-SID to create end-points for the service.
