You can configure one or more instances of the Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS), referred to as VPLS instances, on the router. VPLS is a BGP-MPLS application that has much in common with BGP/MPLS VPNs. VPLS employs a layer 2 virtual private network (VPN) to connect multiple individual LANs across a service provider’s MPLS core network. The geographically dispersed multiple LANs functions as a single virtual LAN.
