The pseudowire between Device PE1 and Device PE3 is the primary or working path. The
pseudowire between Device PE1 and Device PE2 is the backup path.
To support VLANs with H-VPLS, you must include the output-vlan-map swap statement
in the configuration of the MTU device as a workaround to prevent a VLAN ID mismatch.
Otherwise, the PE-r devices report a VLAN ID mismatch, as shown here:
user@PE2> show vpls connections
Layer-2 VPN connections:
Legend for connection status (St)
EI -- encapsulation invalid NC -- interface encapsulation not CCC/TCC/VPLS
EM -- encapsulation mismatch WE -- interface and instance encaps not same
VC-Dn -- Virtual circuit down NP -- interface hardware not present
CM -- control-word mismatch -> -- only outbound connection is up
CN -- circuit not provisioned <- -- only inbound connection is up
OR -- out of range Up -- operational
OL -- no outgoing label Dn -- down
LD -- local site signaled down CF -- call admission control failure
RD -- remote site signaled down SC -- local and remote site ID collision
LN -- local site not designated LM -- local site ID not minimum designated
RN -- remote site not designated RM -- remote site ID not minimum designated
XX -- unknown connection status IL -- no incoming label
MM -- MTU mismatch MI -- Mesh-Group ID not available
BK -- Backup connection ST -- Standby connection
PF -- Profile parse failure PB -- Profile busy
RS -- remote site standby SN -- Static Neighbor
LB -- Local site not best-site RB -- Remote site not best-site
VM -- VLAN ID mismatch

“CLI Quick Configuration” on page 1312 shows the configuration for all of the devices in
Figure 68 on page 1311. The section “Step-by-Step Procedure” on page 1314 describes the
steps on Device PE1 and Device PE2.

To quickly configure this example, copy the following commands, paste them into a text
file, remove any line breaks, change any details necessary to match your network
configuration, and then copy and paste the commands into the CLI at the [edit] hierarchy
level.
Device PE1 set interfaces ge-2/0/5 vlan-tagging
set interfaces ge-2/0/5 encapsulation vlan-ccc
set interfaces ge-2/0/5 unit 601 encapsulation vlan-ccc
set interfaces ge-2/0/5 unit 601 vlan-id 601
set interfaces ge-2/0/5 unit 601 output-vlan-map swap
set interfaces ge-2/0/5 unit 601 family ccc
