The following command provides an example of creating a new SAP profile to specify a different method 
for mapping the SVLAN priority value:

-> ethernet-service sap-profile map_pbit priority map-inner-to-outer-p

In this example the map_pbit profile specifies priority mapping of the CVLAN inner tag 802.1p value to 
the SVLAN outer tag value. The other attributes in this profile are set to their default values. 

To delete a SAP profile, use the no form of the ethernet-service sap-profile command. For example, the 
following command deletes the map_pbit profile:

-> no ethernet-service sap-profile map_pbit

Use the 

 command to view a list of profiles that are already configured 

for the switch. This command also displays the attribute values for each profile.

After a profile is created, it is then necessary to associate the profile with a VLAN Stacking SAP. When 
this is done, the current profile associated with a SAP is replaced with the new profile. 

 command is used to associate a new profile with a VLAN Stacking 

SAP. For example, the following command associates the map_pbit profile to SAP 20:

-> ethernet-service sap 20 sap-profile map_pbit

Note the following when associating a profile with a VLAN Stacking SAP:

• To change the profile associated with the SAP back to the default profile, specify “default-sap-profile” 

for the profile name. For example:

-> ethernet-service sap 20 sap-profile default-sap-profile

• If the SAP ID specified with this command is associated with an IPMVLAN, the profile associated 

with the SAP ID must specify CVLAN tag translation. Double tagging is not supported with IPMV-
LAN SAPs that are also associated with a UNI port.

Use the 

 command to display the SAP configuration, which includes the profile 

association for each SAP. 

 command is used to create a VLAN Stacking UNI port profile. The UNI 

profile determines how control frames ingressing on UNI ports are processed. For example, the following 
command creates a UNI profile to specify that VLAN Stacking should discard GVRP frames:

-> ethernet-service uni-profile discard-gvrp l2-protocol gvrp discard

A default UNI profile, named “default-uni-profile”, is automatically associated with a UNI port. The 
default UNI profile specifies how control frames ingressing on the UNI port. 

To delete a UNI profile, use the no form of the ethernet-service uni-profile command. For example, the 
following command deletes the discard-gvrp profile:

-> no ethernet-service uni-profile discard-gvrp 

Use the 

 command to view a list of profiles that are already configured 

for the switch. This command also displays the attribute values for each profile.
