Configure Service Vpls Mesh-Sdp - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850-48 Cli Reference Manual

Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) Commands

configure service vpls mesh-sdp

Configures a mesh binding between a Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) and a Service Distribution
Point (SDP). Mesh SDPs bound to a service are logically treated as a single bridge port for flooded traf-
fic, where flooded traffic received on any mesh SDP for the service is replicated to other ports and not
transmitted on any mesh SDPs.

Usage Guidelines
•
Use the no form of this command to remove the SDP binding for the specified VPLS. Note that the
SDP configuration is not removed, just the SDP binding with the service. Once the binding is removed,
no packets are forwarded to the far-end router.
•
Binding a service (VPLS instance) to an SDP is required to set up a Virtual Circuit (VC)/Pseudo Wire
(PW) to the far end of the MPLS tunnel. If an SDP is not explicitly bound to a service, no far-end rout-
ers can participate in the service.
•
When configuring services between OmniSwitch and SR Series routers, set the VC type to Ethernet if
the null encapsulation type is used or to VLAN if the dot1q encapsulation type is used.
•
The administrative and operational state of the SDP determines the state of that SDP for the service to
which it is bound.
