Usage Guidelines
This command configures a VPLS peer for the specified vpls_name. Up to 32 peers may be configured
for each VPLS. Peers may belong to multiple VPLS instances. The
peer node that is the endpoint of the VC-LSP. The ipaddress should be configured with a 32-bit prefix
on the peer node. When the peer node is also an Extreme switch, then either OSPF/ISIS must also be
enabled on the VLAN that the ipaddress is assigned, or the peer switch must be configured to distribute
direct routes into the OSPF/ISIS domain. Note that the export command should be used when the
tunnel LSP needs to cross OSPF area boundaries or when ESRP is enabled on the VLAN that the
ipaddress is assigned. If the VPLS peer is specified using the
must be configured so that the host_name can first be resolved to an IP address.
Per node, each peer relationship for each VPLS must be configured. The peer relationships are defined
as either a core-to-core, core-to-spoke, or spoke-to-core. This relationship implicitly defines the packet
flooding behavior for the VC-LSP set up to the configured peer.
A VPLS peer relationship defined as
meshed VPLS core peer group. Flood traffic received from a core node by the core node is forwarded to
spoke nodes only.
A VPLS peer relationship defined as

egress interface. The
