Configuring Integrated Routing and Bridging in a VPLS Instance (MX Series Routers Only)
Integrated routing and bridging (IRB) over VPLS cannot be used in conjunction with the vlan-id all statement. One or more Layer 2 logical interfaces must be configured inside the instance in order for IRB to function properly.
To configure IRB within a VPLS instance, include the routing-interface irb-interface-name statement at the [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name instance-type vpls] hierarchy level:
[edit]
routing-instances {
marketing {
instance-type vpls;
vlan-id 123;
route-distinguisher 11.11.11.11:10;
vrf-target target:100:100;
interface ae0.100;
interface ae0.200;
routing-interface irb.1234;
}
}
