Ethernet access port

Services are configured on access ports used for customer-facing traffic. If a Service Access Port (SAP) is to be configured on a port, it must be configured as access mode or access uplink mode. When a port is configured for access mode, the appropriate encapsulation type can be specified to distinguish the services on the port. When a port has been configured for access mode, multiple services may be configured on the port.

Example

The following is a sample Ethernet access port configuration (for 7210 SAS-D) output.

*A:7210-SAS>config>port# info 
----------------------------------------------
        ethernet
            mode access 
            access
                egress
                exit
            exit
            encap-type dot1q
            mtu 9212
        exit
        no shutdown
----------------------------------------------
*A:7210-SAS>

Access port configuration is supported on the 7210 SAS-D, 7210 SAS-Dxp, 7210 SAS-K 2F1C2T, 7210 SAS-K 2F6C4T, and 7210 SAS-K 3SFP+ 8C.
