Configuring the VPLS MAC Table Timeout Interval

You can modify the timeout interval for the VPLS table. We recommend you configure longer values for small, stable VPLS networks and shorter values for large, dynamic VPLS networks. If the VPLS table does not receive any updates during the timeout interval, the router waits one additional interval before automatically clearing the MAC address entries from the VPLS table.

To modify the timeout interval for the VPLS table, include the mac-table-aging-time statement:




mac-table-aging-time seconds;

You can include this statement 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]

Note: You cannot configure the mac-table-aging-time statement on MX-series routers.
