Configuring the Site

All the Layer 2 circuits provisioned for a local site are listed as the set of logical interfaces (using the interface statement) within the site statement.

On each PE router, you must configure each site that has a circuit to the PE router. To do this, include the site statement:

site site-name {

    site-identifier identifier;

    interface interface-name {

        description text;

        remote-site-id remote-site-ID;

    }

}

You include the site statement at the following hierarchy levels:

• [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols l2vpn]
• [edit logical-routers logical-router-name routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols l2vpn]

You must configure the following for each site:

• site-name—Name of the site.
• site-identifier identifier—Unsigned 16-bit number greater than zero that uniquely identifies the site. The site identifier should correspond to a remote site ID configured on another site within the same VPN.
• interface interface-name—The name of the interface and, optionally, a remote site ID for remote site connections. See Configuring the Remote Site ID.
