Hi there, Community!
This post contains a BGP VPLS configuration guide. Please see more details as you read below.
BACKGROUND
Before configuring BGP VPLS, we need to complete the following tasks:
· configure interface IP addresses and an IGP on PEs and Ps;
· configure LSR IDs and basic MPLS functions on PEs and Ps;
· enable MPLS L2VPN on PEs;
· establish an LSP between PEs to transmit service traffic.
THE DEPLOYMENT OF BGP VPLS
For the deployment of BGP VPLS, we can refer to these steps as per below:
Configuring PEs to Exchange VPLS Information as BGP Peers - in this project, the customer deploys a route reflector. The PE device only needs to configure neighbors with RR under the L2VPN address family.
Configuring VSIs
Binding an AC Interface to a VSI
The configuration template is as below
Table 1-1. BGP VSI configuration example
# bgp 65000 peer ip-address as-number 65000 l2vpn-ad-family peer ipv4-address enable peer ip-address signaling vpls # vsi vsi-name pwsignal bgp route-distinguisher route-distinguisher vpn-target vpn-target &<1-16> both site site-id [ range site-range ] [ default-offset { 0 | 1 } ] # interface GigabitEthernetx/x/x.y l2 binding vsi vsi-name # commit # |
This would be all on the BGP VPLS configuration guide. Thanks for reading this post!
