Attaching a PW profile to a bridge domain

A pseudowire (PW) profile is applied by attaching it to a bridge domain.

Before you begin

Before it is attached to a bridge domain, the PW profile must be configured.

About this task

Perform the following task to attach a PW profile to a bridge domain.

Procedure

  1. From privileged EXEC mode, enter the global configuration mode.
    device# configure terminal
  2. Enter bridge domain configuration mode.
    device(config)# bridge-domain 501
  3. Configure a PW profile for the bridge domain.
    device(config-bridge-domain-501)# pw-profile pw_example
  4. Return to privileged EXEC mode.
    device(config-bridge-domain-501)# end
  5. Verify the configuration.
    device# show bridge-domain 501
