# Monitoring Layer 2 NLRI for VPLS Instances

Purpose

Display layer 2 NLRI for all VPLS instances in the L2VPN address family, for a particular VPLS instance in the L2VPN address family, or for a particular VPLS instance in the VPLS address family.

The l2vpn vpls keywords display layer 2 NLRI for a particular VPLS instance in the VPLS address family.

The l2vpn all keywords display layer 2 NLRI for all VPLS instances in the L2VPN address family. The output for this version of the command also includes information about any VPWS instances configured in the L2VPN address family.

To display layer 2 NLRI for the route that matches a specified prefix (site ID and block offset) in the L2VPN address family or in the VPLS address family, use the site-id and block-offset keywords.

Action

To display information for all VPLS instances (and all VPWS instances) in the L2VPN address family:

    host1#show ip bgp l2vpn all
