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. When a port is configured for access mode, the appropriate encapsulation type can be specified to distinguish the services on the port. After a port has been configured for access mode, multiple services may be configured on the port.

The following example shows an Ethernet access port configuration:
