5.6 Configuration Overview
The ISAM supports configuration of three types of VPLS services:
• multiple v-VPLS instances can be configured to support L2 data frame forwarding
between the user side and network sides via the IHub and VPRN interface reach
extension
• a single m-VPLS is configured to indicate per port or LAG, whether xSTP BPDU
frames should be dropped or accepted.
• multiple VPLS instances can be configured to support L2 data frame forwarding
between the user side and the MPLS network side using MPLS pseudowires.
The following configuration parameters are used to create the m-VPLS or a v-VPLS:
• Customer ID: must be pre-existing in the ISAM; value 1 is always pre-existing at
system start-up and needs not be created by the operator.
• Service ID: must be unique to the service domain.
• VLAN ID: an existing VLAN ID must be specified for each v-VPLS instance. No
VLAN ID is required for the other VPLS types.
After the m-VPLS, the v-VPLS, or the VPLS instance is created, SAPs are configured
to associate the physical access or hybrid port or LAG to the service. The m-VPLS
cannot be associated to a port, connected to a local or remote line board and a
v-VPLS/VPLS can be associated with regular or residential (user) ports. For a VPLS
spoke or mesch SDP are in addition to the SAP's configured, they represent MPLS
pseudowires.
The following example shows a basic m-VPLS configuration, with local SAPs
configure. The service is enabled using the no shutdown command.
*A:ALA-1>configure>service>vpls# info
----------------------------------------------
...
vpls 1 customer 1 create
description “Local VPLS”
exit
sap lt:1/2/2:no-tag create
description “SAP for local service”
exit
sap lt:1/1/5:no-tag create
description “SAP for local service”
exit
no shutdown
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-1>configure>service>vpls#
Note — Multiple v-VPLS instances can configured, but only
one m-VPLS can be configured for a ISAM system. In the
m-VPLS, several RSTP/MSTP instances (VLAN groups) can
be configured.
