4. Select View Device Config.
The device configuration page appears. This page includes these tabs: B-VLAN Info, VSI Info,
and AC Info. By default, B-VLAN Info is displayed.
B-VLAN Info
• Refresh—Refreshes B-VLAN information.
• B-VLAN ID—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.
• Modify—Click the Modify icon to map the B-VLAN to a new ECT algorithm index.
The value range for the ECT algorithm index is 1 to 16.
VSI Info
• Refresh—Refresh SPB VSI information.
• 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—Service instance identifier that uniquely identifies the SPB service.
• B-VLAN ID—B-VLAN used for transporting customer traffic assigned to SPB VSIs. You can
assign a B-VLAN to multiple SPB VSIs.
• Multicast Replication Mode—Replication mode for multi-destination traffic, including
broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast. Available options include transport replication
(also called "tandem replication"), and head-end replication.
• SPB Service—SPB service that the VSI provides. Click the SPB service name to display the
topology and details of the SPB service. For more information, see "Viewing the topology
and details of an SPB service."
• Modify—Click the Modify icon to change the multicast replication mode. You cannot
change the VSI name, I-SID, or SPB service name.
AC Info
Attachment circuits (ACs) are links that connect SPB devices to customer sites.
• Refresh—Refreshes AC information.
• 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.
• VSI—SPB VSI assigned to the Ethernet service instance. The VSI provides forwarding
services in the SPB network for customer traffic that is assigned to the Ethernet service
instance.
Importing devices
To manage SPB devices, you must first import devices from the DC module to the SPB module.
