Configuring VPLS Services Configuring VPLS
page 11-18 OmniSwitch AOS Release 6 Network Configuration Guide September 2009
To enable the SDP to use LDP-signaled LSPs, use the configure service sdp ldp command. For example,
the following command enables LDP for SDP 10:
-> configure service sdp 10 ldp
To configure the SDP to use static LSPs, first disable LDP using the no form of the configure service sdp
ldp command. For example:
-> configure service 10 no ldp
Once LDP is disabled, the next step is to disable auto-label signaling for the SDP using the configure
service sdp signaling command with the off option. For example:
-> configure service sdp 10 signaling off
After disabling LDP and auto-label signaling, configure the SDP to use static LSPs with the configure
service sdp lsp command. For example, the following command binds SDP 10 to a static LSP named “to-
R3”:
-> configure service sdp 10 lsp to-R3
Modify SDP Default Parameters
Two additional SDP parameters determine the path MTU and whether or not the service MTU overrides
the VC MTU. By default the path MTU is set to zero and the VC MTU is advertised.
To change the path MTU, use the configure service sdp path-mtu command. For example:
-> configure service sdp 10 path-mtu 1514
To override the advertised VC MTU with the service MTU, use the configure service sdp adv-mtu-over-
ride command. For example:
-> configure service sdp 10 adv-mtu-override
Enable the SDP
By default, the SDP is disabled when it is created. Once SDP parameters and LSP associations are config-
ured, use the configure service sdp shutdown command with the no shutdown option. For example, the
following command enables SDP 10:
-> configure service sdp 10 no shutdown
To disable the SDP, enter the following command:
-> configure service sdp 10 shutdown
Deleting an SDP
Before deleting an SDP from the switch configuration, remove any VPLS services bound to the SDP and
disable the administrative status for the SDP. Once this is done, use the no form of the configure service
sdp create command to delete the SDP. For example:
-> configure service no sdp 10
