Configuring the VFI in the PE
The virtual switch instance (VFI) specifies the VPN ID of a VPLS domain, the addresses of other PE routers
in this domain, and the type of tunnel signaling and encapsulation mechanism for each peer. (This is where
you create the VSI and associated VCs.) Configure a VFI as follows:

VPLS Configuration over MPLS-TP
Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Specifies the interface and enters interface configuration
mode.
Specifies that there is no IP address assigned to the
interface.
Enables the autonegotiation protocol to configure the
speed, duplex, and automatic flow control of the Gigabit
Ethernet interface.
Configures an Ethernet service instance.
Enables IEEE 802.1Q encapsulation of traffic on a
specified subinterface in a VLAN.
Places the interface in the same bridge domain as the
VFI interface.
Exits interface configuration mode.
