Configuration of VPLS and VLL

Configuration of a VPLS or VLL instance includes configuring a bridge-domain, configuring a virtual connection (VC) identifier, configuring logical interfaces for attachment circuit (AC) endpoints, and configuring peer IP addresses.

To configure a VPLS or VLL instance, you must complete the following tasks:

Configure a bridge domain.
Configure a VC identifier.
Configure logical interfaces for AC endpoints.
(Optional) Configure a pseudowire (PW) profile.
Configure peer IP addresses. Configuring peer IP addresses creates PW endpoints.

Note

VPLS (or VLL) configuration is separate from the underlying IP or MPLS configuration. MPLS tunnels need to be brought up separately. For further information about the configuration of MPLS tunnels, refer to the Extreme SLX-OS MPLS Configuration Guide.
