Command introduced in JUNOSe Release 7.1.0.
Release Information
Configures the transport virtual router for a VPLS instance that uses either BGP or
Description
LDP as the signaling protocol. Issuing this command creates a new VPLS instance
on the router or causes an existing bridge group to become a VPLS instance. The no
version removes the VPLS instance from the router and clears any attributes
configured for the deleted VPLS instance.
A VPLS instance is a single instance of the virtual private LAN service (VPLS). VPLS
employs a layer 2 virtual private network (VPN) to connect multiple individual LANs
across a service provider's MPLS network. The multiple LANs function as a single
virtual LAN.
The transport virtual router specifies the name of the virtual router on which the BGP
or LDP instance that signals reachability for this VPLS instance is configured.
To create a new VPLS instance or configure an existing bridge group as a VPLS
instance, you must issue the bridge vpls transport-virtual-router command before
you issue any other commands to configure VPLS attributes; otherwise, the VPLS
configuration fails.
