Creating Service Connections
CTM contains an L2 service provisioning wizard to facilitate provisioning of VLANs over a defined L2
topology. You can define each Ethernet port as User-Network Interface (UNI) or Network-Network
Interface (NNI). VLANs on an Ethernet port are referred to as port VLANs. VLANs on PoS and SPR
ports (and their connected circuits) are referred to as service provider VLANs (or circuit VLANs).

ports (and their connected circuits) are referred to as service provider VLANs (or circuit VLANs).
You cannot mix NNI and UNI connections on the same port. CTM supports the following types of
service configurations:
