About This Chapter
This chapter describes the principle, applications, and configurations of VPLS.
7.1 Introduction to VPLS
The Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS), also called the Transparent LAN Service (TLS) or
virtual private switched network service, is an L2VPN technology that is based on Multi-
Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Ethernet technologies.
7.2 VPLS Features Supported by the S7700
Before configuring VPLS, you need to know such concepts as control plane and access plane,
flooding, packet encapsulation, VPLS access mode, HVPLS, VPLS access through VLLs, VPLS
access through static VLLs in dual-homed mode, inter-AS applications, VPLS tunnel load
balancing, MAC address learning, and IP address detection. This can help you complete the
configuration task quickly and accurately.
7.3 Configuring Kompella VPLS
This section describes how to configure Kompella VPLS. Detailed operations include
configuring BGP as the signaling protocol, and configuring VPN targets to implement automatic
discovery of VPLS PEs.
7.4 Configuring Martini VPLS
This section describes how to configure Martini VPLS, with the signaling type beling LDP.
7.5 Configuring LDP HVPLS
If there are a large number of VPLS PEs, you can adopt the Hierarchical VPLS (HVPLS)
networking scheme to reduce the performance requirements of PEs.
7.6 Configuring the Static VLL to Access the VPLS Network
This section describes how to configure a static VLL to access a UPE to an SPE (a VPLS
network). The configuration is needed if the UPE does not support dynamic VLLs and needs to
access the SPE through the static VLL.
7.7 Configuring Inter-AS Kompella VPLS
This section describes how to configure inter-AS Kompella VPLS. After inter-AS Kompella
VPLS is configured, the MPLS backbone network that bears VPLS can span multiple ASs.
