Example for Configuring RRPP Snooping on a VPLS Network

77 0 0 0
display all floors #1

Overview

RRPP snooping notifies a VPLS network of changes in an RRPP ring. After RRPP snooping is enabled on sub-interfaces or VLANIF interfaces, the VPLS network can transparently transmit RRPP packets, detect changes in the RRPP ring, and update forwarding entries. This ensures that traffic can be rapidly switched to a non-blocking path.

In Figure 6-30, UPEs constitute an RRPP ring and connect to the VPLS network where NPEs are located. NPEs are connected through a PW, so they cannot serve as RRPP nodes to respond to RRPP packets. As a result, the VPLS network cannot detect changes to the RRPP ring status. When the RRPP ring topology changes, each node on the VPLS network forwards downstream data according to the MAC address table generated before the RRPP ring topology changes. Consequently, the downstream traffic cannot be forwarded

You can enable RRPP snooping on the sub-interface or VLANIF interface of NPED and associate the interface with VSIs on the local device. When the RRPP ring is faulty, NPED on the VPLS network deletes forwarding entries of VSIs (including the associated VSIs) on the local node and forwarding entries of NPEB to re-learn forwarding entries. This ensures that traffic can be switched to a normal path and downstream traffic can be properly forwarded.

Configuration Notes

  • RRPP and RRPP snooping cannot be configured on the same interface.
  • SA series cards and XGE interfaces connected to ET1D2IPS0S00, ET1D2FW00S00, ET1D2FW00S01, ET1D2FW00S02, and ACU2 cards do not support RRPP snooping. In earlier versions of V200R007C00, X1E series cards do not support RRPP snooping.

Networking Requirements

In Figure 6-31, SwitchA, SwitchB, SwitchC, and SwitchD constitute an RRPP ring. The network is required to prevent loops when the ring is complete and to implement fast convergence to rapidly restore communication between nodes in the ring when the ring fails. The VPLS network can transparently transmit RRPP packets, detect RRPP ring status changes, and update forwarding entries so that traffic can be rapidly switched to a normal path according to the ring status.

Configuration Roadmap

The configuration roadmap is as follows:

  1. Configure a VPLS network.

  2. Configure an RRPP ring to prevent loops and implement fast convergence when a device fails.

  3. Enable RRPP snooping so that the VPLS network can transparently transmit RRPP packets and detect RRPP ring status change.

  4. Associate interfaces with VSIs so that SwitchC and SwitchD on the VPLS network can delete the MAC address tables of their VSIs when a fault occurs on the RRPP ring network.

VLAN termination sub-interfaces can be created on a non-VCMP client.

Procedure

  1. Configure VPLS. SwitchC is used as an example. The configuration of SwitchD is similar to the configuration of SwitchC, and is not mentioned here. For details, see the configuration files.

    imgDownload?uuid=d35fa11eacd246509624e77 NOTE:

    This example provides only configurations of sub-interfaces on SwitchC and SwitchD connected to the RRPP ring. The configurations of devices on the VPLS network are not mentioned.

    # Configure GE2/0/0.10 on SwitchC to allow the packets of VLAN 10 to pass through and bind GE2/0/0.10 to VSI 10.
