Configuring VPLS Routing Instance and VPLS Interface Connectivity

You can configure the VPLS routing instance to take down or maintain its VPLS connections depending on the status of the interfaces configured for the VPLS routing instance. By default, the VPLS connection is taken down whenever a customer-facing interface configured for the VPLS routing instance fails. This behavior can be explicitly configured by specifying the ce option for the connectivity-type statement:




connectivity-type ce;

You can alternatively specify that the VPLS connection remain up so long as an Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) interface is configured for the VPLS routing instance by specifying the irb option for the connectivity-type statement:




connectivity-type irb;

You can configure the connectivity-typestatement at the following hierarchy levels:

[edit routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols vpls]
[edit logical-systems logical-system-name routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols vpls]
