Modifying a Service

PSM allows users to modify existing Ethernet Services in the network by editing, adding and removing ports.

Modifying a Port in a Service

Caution: Modifying a port in a service may affect the service or the data traffic running on the service.

1. Double-click a service in the Network tree.

   The Ethernet Service Activation window for that service appears.

2. Select the Details tab to display the port settings.
3. Click the port you want to modify, and then click the ellipsis in the Advanced settings column. The text in the editable fields is black; fields that cannot be changed are grey.

   

   Note: For multi-chassis LAGs, you can only modify the active LAG member. PSM automatically copies the modifications to the non-active LAG members.

4. To implement the port modifications, click Apply. The port is changed.

Adding a Port to a Service

1. Double-click a service in the Network tree.

   The Ethernet Service Activation window for that service appears.

2. In the Service tab of the UNI/NNI/ENNI Ports panel, click the icon.
3. Select the network element where the port is to be added, then select a switch from the Switch Members list. This populates the ports panel with a list of ports that can be added to the selected service, as shown below.

   

4. Select the port or group of ports to be added to the service.
5. Click Add UNI or Add UNI LAG, Add NNI or Add NNI LAG, or Add ENNI or Add ENNI LAG depending on the type of port chosen.
6. Click Apply. The port or group of ports is added as shown below.

   

Removing a Port from a Service

Caution: Removing a port from a service may affect the service or the data traffic running on the service.

1. Double-click a service in the Network tree.

   The Ethernet Service Activation window for that service appears.

2. In the UNI/NNI/ENNI Ports section, remove a port using one of the following options:
   1. In the Details tab, select the port from the list and click the subtract button to remove the port, or right-click the port and click Remove Port(s).
   2. In the Service tab, select the port icon and click the subtract button to remove the port.

   Note: When you remove one member of a multi-chassis LAG from a service, PSM automatically removes all other members of that multi-chassis LAG from the service.

3. To implement the port removal, click Apply. The port is removed.
