VC Type 5 Configuration on PE-CLE Port
VC Type 5 Configuration on PE-CLE Port
The customer-facing FastEthernet or GigabitEthernet port must be provisioned with EoMPLS and a
VC type 4 or type 5. Interface GigE 1 on card A and card C plays the VC type 5 role in
Figure 18-2 on
page 18-10 . For more information on the role of a VC type 5, see the “Understanding EoMPLS” section
on page 18-1 .
To provision a VC type 5, which transports the configured port’s packets between two PE-CLE
ML-Series cards, perform the following procedure on the customer facing port, beginning in global
configuration mode:
Step 7 Router(config-subif)# mpls l2transport route
destination vc-id
or
xconnect destination vc-id encapsulation mpls
By entering the mpls l2transport route or the xconnect
interface configuration command on a dot1Q VLAN
sub-interface for VLAN-based EoMPLS, you can
configure an EoMPLS tunnel to forward traffic based on
the customer VLAN.
mpls l2transport route specifies the VC to use to
transport the VLAN packets. Initiates a remote LDP
session with the peer point-to-point endpoint interface.
• destination specifies the loopback IP address for the
remote ML-Series at the other end of the VC
(PE-CLE).
• vc-id is a value you supply. It must be unique for
each VC. The VC ID is used to connect the
endpoints of the VC. Specify the same VC ID on
both ends of the VC.
xconnect binds the 802.1q VLAN circuit to a pseudowire
for xconnect service. The encapsulation mpls
pseudowire class parameter specifies MPLS for the
tunneling method.
Note The xconnect command is a newer version of the
mpls l2transport route interface configuration
command.
Note Use the no mpls l2transport route destination
vc-id or no xconnect destination vc-id
encapsulation mpls interface command to
delete the EoMPLS tunnel.
Step 8 Router(config-subif)# end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 9 Router# show mpls l2transport vc Verify the configuration.
Step 10 Router# copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file
