Viewing EVC Service Properties
Certain EVC service properties are configured as port attributes. These attributes determine the degree
of service transparency and protect the service provider’s network from prot ocol cont rol t raffic. Prime
Network Vision discovers these key EVC service properties and displays this information in physical
inventory for the following devices:
• Cisco ME3400- and Cisco ME3400E-series devices running Cisco IOS versions 1 2.2 (52)SE to
12.2(54)SE.
• Cisco 3750 Metro devices running Cisco IOS versions 12.2(52)SE to 12.2(54)SE.
Shared Switching Entities and EVC Service View
Some switching entities that Prime Network Vision discovers are concurren tly p ar t of a network VLAN
and VPLS/EoMPLS instance. These switching entities are referred to as shared switching entities.
Prime Network Vision displays the switching entity information for shared switching enti ties only und er
the VPLS instances in the EVC service view.
To view EVC port-related properties for the supported devices and software versions:
Step 1 In Prime Network Vision, double-click the required device.
Step 2 In the inventory window, choose Physical Inventory > Chassis > module > port.
Figure 12-18 shows an example of a port in physical inventory configured with these EVC properties.
