Abstract

See full text

An edge switch enables service provisioning and dynamic service association for end devices coupled to the edge switch. The edge switch maintains a generic user profile that includes classification rules for classifying incoming traffic from the end devices to Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) VLAN tunnel services. Upon detecting incoming traffic on an access port of the edge switch, the edge switch accesses the generic user profile to determine whether the incoming traffic matches one of the classification rules, and if so, automatically associates the incoming traffic with a VLAN tunnel service indicated by the matching classification rule to provide tunnel-based connectivity to remote end devices associated with the VLAN tunnel service.
