After a PE is removed, all links related with this PE are removed from the network topology. If
removing the PE results in disconnection between two CEs in a VPN, the link between the two CEs
are removed from the VPN topology. If you import the PE again, you must execute the auto discovery
function to regain the SA information of the PE, and reconstruct the VPN links in both the network
topology and the VPN topology.
If a hierarchical PE is removed, the MVM will automatically adjust the types of other related
hierarchical PEs. For instance, there are three-level PEs: SPE, MPE, and UPE. If the SPE is removed,
the MPE changes to SPE; if the UPE is removed, the MPE changes to UPE; if the MPE is removed,
the SPE and the UPE both change to PE, for the hierarchical relations between them are broken
off.
