To configure a tunnel-server port, you assign the maximum number of tunnel-service interfaces to run on the specified tunnel-server port. This process is referred to as provisioning. Conversely, the process of reducing the maximum number of tunnel-service interfaces on a tunnel-server port to zero is referred to as unprovisioning the port.
This section describes the considerations for provisioning and unprovisioning tunnel-service interfaces on dedicated and shared tunnel-server ports.
For instructions on how to provision and unprovision tunnel-service interfaces, see Configuring Tunnel-Server Ports and Tunnel-Service Interfaces .
