Configuring a Layer 2 VPN Routing Instance

To configure a Layer 2 VPN on your network, you need to configure a Layer 2 VPN routing instance on the PE router by including the l2vpn statement:

l2vpn {

    (control-word | no-control-word);

    encapsulation-type type;

    traceoptions {

        file filename <replace> <size size> <files number> <no-stamp> 

            <world-readable | no-world-readable>;

        flag flag <flag-modifier> <disable>;

    }

    site site-name {

        site-identifier identifier;

        interface interface-name {

            description text;

            remote-site-id remote-site-id;

        }

    }

}

You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:

• [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols]
• [edit logical-routers logical-router-name routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols]

Instructions for how to configure the remaining statements are included in the sections that follow.
