DETAILED STEPS
Step 1 configure

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router# configure
Enters the Global Configuration mode.
Step 2 l2vpn
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)# l2vpn
Enters L2VPN configuration mode.
Step 3 description value
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-l2vpn)# description S-PE1
Populates the Pseudowire Switching Point TLV. This TLV records all the switching points the pseudowire traverses.
Each multisegment pseudowire can have its own description. If it does not have one, this global description is used.
Step 4 commit
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-l2vpn)# commit
Saves configuration changes to the running configuration file and remains in the configuration session.
Provisioning a Cross-Connect Description
S-PE nodes must have a description in the Pseudowire Switching Point TLV. The TLV records all the switching
points the pseudowire traverses, creating a history that is helpful for troubleshooting.
