Creating a VPLS Instance
ONFIGURATION
Specifying a VPLS instance name
Use the vsi command to create a VPLS instance or enter VSI view. When creating a
VPLS instance, you must specify a locally unique VPLS instance name, and must
choose automatic discovery or manual configuration as peer discovery
mechanism. Currently, only manual configuration, namely, static mode, is
supported.
Table 573 Specify a VPLS instance name
Operation
Specify a VPLS instance name
Remove a VPLS instance or quit the VSI view
Entering VSI-LDP view and configure VSI-ID
Use the pwsignal command to specify a PW signaling protocol used by the VSI
and enter the VSI-LDP view.
Specifying LDP as the PW signaling protocol for the VSI takes you to the VSI-LDP
view
Perform the following configuration in VSI view.
Table 574 Specify Martini as the VPLS connection mode
Operation
Specify the PW signaling protocol to be used by the VSI
Currently, PW signaling supports LDP only.
Use the vsi-id command to specify an ID for the current VSI. The ID must be locally
unique.
Perform the following configuration in VSI-LDP view.
Table 575 Configure a VPLS instance
Operation
Specify a ID for the current VSI
Configuring an IP address of a peer PE
Use the peer command to create a VPLS peer PE contained in an instance. When
you create a VPLS peer PE, you must specify an IP address and peer type for the
peer PE. By default, the peer type is NPE. When you specify UPE as the peer type, it
indicates the peer is a user convergence node UPE in hierarchical VPLS
architecture. You can also specify an ID for a VC to the peer, and the ID must be
consistent with that of the remote. Multipoint-to-multipoint connections are
needed among specified multiple remote peer NPEs, but not needed between
UPEs and NPEs.
Perform the following configuration in VSI-LDP view.
