Configuring VPLS with BGP Signaling on a PE Router
To configure VPLS with BGP signaling on the PE router:
1. Configure a single instance of VPLS, known as a VPLS instance, on the PE router for
each VPLS domain in which the router participates.
2. (Optional) Configure BGP multihoming for the customer site.
3. (Optional) Configure optional attributes for the VPLS instance.
4. Configure network interfaces to connect the PE router to each CE device.
5. (Optional) Configure nondefault subscriber policies for the VPLS network interface.
6. Configure a loopback interface and assign a router ID that uses the IP address of the
loopback interface.
7. Configure MPLS label-switched paths (LSPs) to connect local and remote PE routers.
8. Set up BGP signaling on the autonomous system configured to signal reachability
for this VPLS instance.

Configuring VPLS Instances with BGP Signaling
You must configure a VPLS instance for each VPLS domain in which the router
participates. From a configuration standpoint, a VPLS instance is simply a new or existing
bridge group that you configure with additional VPLS attributes.
Table 114 on page 590 lists the commands that you use to configure a basic VPLS instance,
as described in this section.
