Configuring LDP Signaling for VPLS

To configure LDP signaling, you must first enable a VPLS instance to isolate VPLS traffic from other network traffic. To configure, include the instance-type vpls statement at the [edit routing-instances instance-name] hierarchy level. To configure LDP signaling within the instance, identify the virtual circuit with the vpls-id statement and specify the PE routers participating in the instance with the neighbor statement:



[edit]
routing-instances {



instance-name {

instance-type vpls;        
  

interface ge-0/1/0.0;


protocols {


vpls {

vpls-id id-name;

neighbor neighbor-id; # The neighbor-id should be the loopback address of # the remote
PE router.
}


}


}


}

To fully enable LDP signaling on a PE in a VPLS instance, you must also enable ldp on the loopback interface of the router. To configure, include the interface lo0.0 statement at the [edit protocols ldp] hierarchy level:



[edit]
protocols {


ldp {

interface lo0.0;
}


}

For LDP signaling within a VPLS routing instance, the JUNOS software supports the following values only:

FEC—FEC 128
Control bit—0
Ethernet pseudowire type—hexadecimal 0x0005
