The vlan vlan-id parameter specifies the ID of the configured VLAN for which the user wants to clear
the counters.

The ethernet port-id parameter specifies the port ID of the interface for which the user wants to
clear the counters.

The priority pri parameter specifies a priority queue for a particular VPLS endpoint for which the
user wants to clear the counters.

Local VPLS

Local VPLS is used to create a VPLS circuit with endpoints in the same device. A Local VPLS can be
configured between two or more ports in a router, two or more LAGs in a router, or between a port
and a LAG as shown in

. Each entity (port or LAG) is identified as “Endpoint 1”, Endpoint

2” or “Endpoint 3”.

NOTE

Trunks supported include server LAGs, per-packet server LAGs, and Link Aggregation Control
Protocol (LACP) LAGs.

Local VPLS port and LAG configurations

NOTE

When configuring a LAG as an endpoint, only the primary port of the LAG is specified in the Local
VPLS configuration.

NOTE

Packets that arrive on an interface with the same destination MAC address as the interface are
forwarded in hardware just like packets with other destination addresses.
