Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 7.5.
Specify a multihomed interface as the primary interface for the VPLS site. If there are
multiple interfaces, the remaining interfaces are activated only when the primary interface
goes down. If no active interfaces are configured at the site level, it is assumed that all
traffic for a VPLS site travels through a single, nonmultihomed PE router.
NOTE: In the VPLS documentation, the word router in terms such as PE router
is used to refer to any device that provides routing functions.
The remaining statements are explained separately.
For FEC 128, use the
