based on Layer 2/3 VPN pseudo-wires. The connection between MSAN and a pair of PE routers is
realized by MC-LAG. From MSAN perspective, redundant pair of PE routers acts as a single
partner in LACP negotiation. At any point in time, only one of the routers has an active link(s) in a
given LAG. The status of LAG links is reflected in status signaling of pseudo-wires set between all
