SAPs in an Epipe service can only be configured on Ethernet ports

The statement is false. An Epipe is a Nokia implementation of an Ethernet Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS). While Ethernet ports are a common access type for Epipes, they are not the only type. SAPs for Epipe services can also be configured on other interface types that can carry Ethernet frames, such as Packet over SONET/SDH (POS) ports or within channels on SONET/SDH and TDM interfaces. The service is designed to be flexible regarding the physical access medium, as long as Ethernet frames can be transported over it.

This is a True/False question. The statement is false because Nokia's Epipe service implementation is not restricted solely to physical Ethernet ports.

1. Nokia 7750 SR OS Services Architecture Guide, Release 21.10.R1, "Epipe Service Overview" section. The documentation states, "An Epipe service is a Layer 2 point-to-point service. The 7750 SR supports Epipe services over Ethernet, SONET/SDH, and TDM access circuits."

2. Nokia 7750 SR OS Layer 2 Services and EVPN Guide, Release 21.10.R1, "Epipe SAPs" section. This guide provides configuration examples and details for creating Epipe SAPs on various port types, including port-id for Ethernet and sonet-sdh or tdm channel-groups, explicitly refuting the claim that only Ethernet ports are supported.
