Configure Layer 2 Tracemroute on a VRF
Use this procedure to configure the Layer 2 tracemroute on the VRF (Layer 3). This procedure queries the SPBM multicast module to determine the B-VLAN, I-SID and nickname for the S and G streams. The nickname and I-SID are used to create a multicast MAC address.
Note
If you want to run a Layer 2 tracemroute on a VRF, make sure you are in the proper VRF context.
To perform a Layer 3 tracemroute on a VLAN, see Configure Layer 2 Trace Multicast Route on a VLAN.
Before you begin
On the source and destination nodes, you must configure a CFM MD, MA, and MEP, and assign a nodal MEP to the B-VLAN.
