Configuring the Interface to the CE Device
On the PE1 router, configure the interface connected to the CE device to include VPLS encapsulation.
VPLS traffic to CE devices are supported on the following J Series and SRX Series devices PIMs:
- Gigabit Ethernet uPIMs
- Gigabit Ethernet ePIMs
- Fast Ethernet PIMs
- Fast Ethernet ePIMs
![]() | Note: Ports on uPIMs and ePIMs must be in routing mode before you can configure the corresponding interfaces for VPLS. |
