Huawei quidway s7700 - Creating a VSI and Configuring BGP Signaling

peer ipv4-address connect-interface loopback interface-number
The interface used to set up the TCP connection is specified.
NOTE
To improve reliability, on the PE, the local loopback interface is generally specified as the interface to set
up the TCP connection.
Step 5 Run:
vpls-family
The BGP VPLS sub-address family view is displayed.
Step 6 Run:
peer ipv4-address enable
The exchange of VPLS information is enabled on the BGP peer.
NOTE
The BGP VPLS shares a TCP session with the common BGP protocol. Most configurations of the BGP
VPLS network are the same as the configurations of the BGP protocol. To exchange information about the
VPLS label block, you need to enable peers to exchange the VPLS block label in the BGP VPLS sub-
address family view.
----End
Follow-up Procedure
NOTE
For information about commands in the BGP VPLS sub-address family view, refer to the chapter "IP
Routing Commands" in the Quidway S7700 Smart Routing Switch Command Reference.
7.3.3 Creating a VSI and Configuring BGP Signaling
This part describes how to configure Kompella VPLS. Detailed operations include creating and
configuring VSIs (set RDs and VPN targets of the VSIs), configuring BGP, and creating site
connections.
Context
Do as follows on the PEs of the two ends of the PW:
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
vsi vsi-name auto
A VSI is created and automatic member discovery mechanism is configured.
The Kompella VPLS does not directly deal with the connection between the CEs. It numbers
the CEs and creates a VSI on the PE for each CE.
