packet). The value is exchanged with vpls configured peer nodes. All VPLS peer nodes must be

be dropped if the VPLS MTU setting is greater than the MPLS MTU setting for the VC-LSP interface.
The vplsping command may be used to verify end-to-end path connectivity for specific payload packet
sizes (see VPLS Ping Command on page 3).
Example
