In Martini mode, multiple VC connections can be set up over one LSP between two PEs.
Information about the VC labels and LSP is stored on PEs only. The P does not store any L2VPN
information; therefore, Martini features excellent extensibility. When a new VC is needed, you
only need to configure a unidirectional VC on the PEs at both the ends. The network operation
is not affected.
Compared with Kompella, Martini uses LDP rather than BGP as the signaling protocol. Martini
is independent of the timing refresh mechanism; therefore, this mode detects faults fast.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before configuring a Martini VLL, complete the following tasks:
l Configuring the static routes or an IGP protocol on PE and P on the MPLS backbone
network to implement IP connectivity
l Configuring the basic MPLS capability on the MPLS backbone network (PEs and P)
l Setting up LDP sessions among the PEs Setting up remote LDP sessions among PEs that
are not directly connected
l Setting up a tunnel, which can be CR-LSP or LSP tunnel, between PEs according to the
tunnel policy
Data Preparation
To configure a Martini VLL, you need the following data.
No.
Data
1 Destination address and VC ID of the L2VC
