Configuring A Bgp Vpls Instance; Resetting Vpls Bgp Connections; Binding A Vpls Instance - HP 12500 Series Configuration Manual

Configuring a BGP VPLS instance

When creating a BGP VPLS instance, you must specify a globally unique name for the VPLS instance and
set the peer discovery mechanism to automatic configuration.
When configuring a BGP VPLS instance, you must configure BGP as the signaling protocol to be used.
To configure a BGP VPLS instance:
To do...
Enter system view
Create a BGP VPLS instance and
enter VSI view
Specify BGP as the PW signaling
protocol and enter VSI BGP view
Configure an RD for the VPLS
instance
Configure VPN targets for the VPLS
instance
Create a site for the VPLS instance

Resetting VPLS BGP connections

When the BGP routing policy or protocol is changed, you must reset the BGP connections in a VPLS to
make the new configurations take effect to all connections.
To reset VPLS BGP connections:
To do...
Reset a specific or all VPLS BGP
connections

Binding a VPLS instance

You can establish the association between packets and a VPLS instance in either of the following
methods:
Binding a Layer 3 interface with the VPLS instance. After you configure such a binding, all packets
•
arriving at the Layer 3 interface will be forwarded by the VPLS instance.
Binding a service instance with the VPLS instance. After you configure such a binding, the switch
•
matches packets received on the Layer 2 Ethernet port according to the service instance. Packets
that match the service instance will be forwarded by the VPLS instance bound with the service
instance. A service instance can be used to match all packets received on the port, packets carrying
the specified VLAN tags, all tagged packets, or all packets with no VLAN tags, providing a more
flexible VPLS instance access control.
