Configuring Mac Address Learning - Huawei quidway s7700 Configuration Manual

Quidway S7700 Smart Routing Switch
Configuration Guide - VPN
Context
Do as follows on the PEs of the both ends of the PW:
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
vsi vsi-name [ auto | static ]
The VSI view is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
encapsulation { ethernet | vlan }
The VPLS encapsulation mode is configured for the VSI.
If the QinQ sub-interface or dotlq sub-interface is bound to the VSI, the VPLS encapsulation
type cannot be specified as ethernet.
Step 4 (Optional) Run:
mtu mtu-value
The MTU for the packets sent by the VSI is configured.
When configuring MTU, you must use the same MTU on different PEs when creating a VSI for
the same VPLS.
Step 5 (Optional) Run:
description description
The descriptive information about the VSI is configured.

7.10.3 Configuring MAC Address Learning

In VPLS, packets are forwarded according to MAC address forwarding entries. In most cases,
MAC address learning can be performed automatically. Nevertheless, to prevent attacks and
troubleshoot faults, you can adopt the VSI-based MAC address management mechanism
provided by the S7700.
Context
A physical interface can belong to multiple VLANs at the same time. Multiple VLAN interfaces
can be bound with the same VSI. Therefore, when configuring MAC address static entries or
blackhole entries for VSI bound to the VLAN interfaces, you must specify the physical interface
and VLAN interface.
Do as follows on the PEs of the two ends of the PW:
Issue 01 (2011-07-15)
NOTE
When an interface is bound to the VSI, the MTU can be configured in the interface view but it does not
take effect. The PW signaling uses the MTU that is configured in the VSI view for the PW MTU negotiation.
