VLL Instance Configuration
Application scenario
Company H locates in city B and uses PE 1 and CE 1; company Z locates in city N and uses PE
2 and CE 2. PE 1 and PE 2 are enabled with MPLS and MPLS L2VPN, and each configured with
an LSR ID. The two companies are going to undertake corporate restructuring through merge into
a new group for the need of business development and strategic planning. The new group decides
to establish a VPN through VLL to implement network connectivity, so that information and data
can be transferred within the group fast and correctly.
Scenario analysis
Create a VLL VPN by using the L2VPN manager, and then add all network devices in city B and
city N of the group company into the VPN for management. VLL VPN is suitable for point-to-point
links. For point-to-multipoint links, you are recommended to use VPLS VPN.
