Converting a Normal Ethernet Service to a VLAN SNCP Service

Procedure

1. In the NE Explorer, select an Ethernet board and choose Configuration > Ethernet Service > Ethernet Line Service from the Function Tree.
2. Click the EPL Service tab. Select a service that you want to convert, right-click, and choose Convert to VLAN SNCP from the shortcut menu. The Convert to VLAN SNCP Service dialog box is displayed.
3. Set protection service parameters such as Source Port according to the actual requirements.
   
   
   NOTE:

   • Make sure that the port settings of the protection service and the service being protected are consistent.
   • If the port type of protection services is not UNI, the Web LCT automatically sets the port type to UNI.

4. Click OK.
5. In the NE Explorer, select an NE and choose Configuration > Electrical Cross-Connection Configuration from the Function Tree. Create the electrical cross-connections between the Ethernet board and the east line board and between the Ethernet board and the west line board.
   NOTE:

   • When the Ethernet board is the L4G board, create the cross-connection between this L4G board and the L4G board that is in another direction.
   • If the cross-connection already exists, skip this step.

6. In the NE Explorer of the opposite NE, create the Ethernet dual fed service of the opposite NE and the corresponding cross-connections between the Ethernet board and the east line board and between the Ethernet board and the west line board.
7. Optional: If the service passes through an intermediate station, on the intermediate station, you should configure the pass-through for the service between the line boards.
