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.

Before configuring Kompella VPLS, familiarize yourself with the applicable environment,

complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the required data. This can help you complete

the configuration task quickly and accurately.

Applicable Environment

If the PE devices support the BGP as VPLS signaling, you can configure Kompella VPLS.

Automatic discovery of the VPLS PE is implemented through the VPN-Target configuration.

Pre-configuration Tasks

Before configuring Kompella VPLS, complete the following tasks:

Issue 01 (2011-07-15)

7-8, PE1, PE2, and PE3 are in the same VPLS network.

To make the CEs attached to PE1, PE2, and PE3 interwork with each other, that is, to

construct a full-mesh VPLS network, ensure that the VPN-Targets configured on PE1, PE2,

and PE3 are the same.

To make PE1 communicate with both PE2 and PE3 (but PE2 and PE3 cannot

communicate), ensure that the inbound VPN-Target configured on PE1 is the same as the

outbound VPN-Targets configured on both PE2 and PE3, and the outbound VPN-Target

configured on PE1 is the same as the inbound VPN-Targets configured on both PE2 and
