2. On the AC List tab, click the View Details icon in the Details column for an AC.
The AC details page displays information about the BEB device, customer site name, and the
SPB service for the AC. If customer traffic matches the Ethernet service instance on the AC,
the BEB uses the SPB service associated with the Ethernet service instance to provide forwarding
services.
• BEB device information:
◦ Device Name—BEB to which the AC is attached. By default, this field displays the
device label and the device IP address. The device label is assigned in the IMC
Platform. The device IP address is the IP address used when the device was added
to the IMC Platform. For more information, see HP IMC Base Platform Administrator
Guide.
◦ Interface Description—Interface type and number of the interface that is connected
to the AC.
◦ Service Instance—ID of the Ethernet service instance on the interface. A service
instance identifies a category of incoming customer traffic. The traffic matching criteria
are specified by Encapsulation Type and VLANs fields.
◦ Encapsulation Type—Customer traffic encapsulation matching criteria. For more
information, see Table 7.
◦ VLANs—Outer VLANs assigned to the service instance. This field contains VLANs
when Encapsulation Type is SVLAN ID List or Tagged SVLAN ID List. This field is empty
when Encapsulation Type is not SVLAN ID List or Tagged SVLAN ID List.
• Customer site name:
Name of the customer site connected through the AC to the BEB. The customer site name
only identifies a customer site in the topology diagram. It is not used for any other
purposes.
• SPB service information:
◦ Service Name—SPB service name.
◦ VSI Name—SPB VSI name automatically assigned to the SPB service when it was
created. VSI name uses the imc_spb_isid_+I-SID format.
◦ I-SID—I-SID assigned to the SPB VSI. In an SPB network, an I-SID uniquely identifies
one SPB service.
◦ B-VLAN—B-VLAN used for transporting customer traffic assigned to SPB VSIs. You
can assign a B-VLAN to multiple SPB VSIs.
◦ ECT Index—ECT algorithm index mapped to the B-VLAN. To forward traffic to each
other in a B-VLAN, SPB devices must have the same B-VLAN ID to ECT algorithm
index mapping.
