Configuring An Ldp Vpls Instance - HP HSR6800 Configuration Manual

Configuring an LDP VPLS instance

When creating an LDP VPLS instance, perform the following configurations:
1. Specify a globally unique name for the VPLS instance and set the peer discovery mechanism to
manual configuration.
2. Configure LDP as the PW signaling protocol.
3. Specify the ID of the VPLS instance.
4. Use the peer command to configure a VPLS peer PE for the instance, including the following
parameters:
IP address of the peer PE.
ID of the PW to the peer PE, which must be consistent with that specified on the peer PE.
Type of the peer PE. Use the upe keyword to specify a UPE peer, which is an MTU-s device in the
H-VPLS model, or use the backup-peer keyword to configure two NPE peers (one primary one backup).
You can configure only one pair of primary and backup NPEs. The remote NPEs must be
fully meshed, but it is not necessary for the UPE to connect to all the NPEs.
PW class to be referenced. A PW class defines the PW transport mode and tunneling policy for the PW.
To configure an LDP VPLS instance:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Create a PW class and enter
its view.
3. Configure the PW transport
mode.
4. Specify a tunneling policy.
5. Return to system view.
6. Create an LDP VPLS
instance and enter VSI view.
7. Specify LDP as the PW
signaling protocol and enter
VSI LDP view.
8. Specify an ID for the VPLS
instance.
9. Create a peer PE for the
VPLS instance and enter
L2VPN peer view.
10. Return to VSI LDP view.
11. Enable the PW switchover
function and set the
switchover delay time.
