Add EVPN-VPWS Service Post Update Placements Parameters

You can configure placement parameters for the EVPN-VPWS service when you are creating or modifying the service instance. Use Update placements button on the customer site settings page to automatically assign possible placement options for the service instance.

Before adding the Update Placements parameters, you must create an EVPN-VPWS service instance and enter general, site, and site network access details about the service. See Add an EVPN Service Instance and Add EVPN-VPWS Site and Site Network Access Details.
