Displaying VPLS information
3
Total VPLS peers
The number of VPLS peers this device has for this VPLS instance, as well as the number of
these VPLS peers with which this device has an LDP session.
Peer address
The IP address of the VPLS peer.
State
The current state of the connection with the VPLS peer. This can be one of the following states:
•
Operational – The VPLS instance is operational. Packets can flow between the device and
the peer
•
Wait for functional local ports – The physical endpoint port that must be connected to the
Customer Edge device is down due to a link outage or is administratively disabled
•
Wait for LSP tunnel to Peer – The device cannot find a working tunnel LSP
•
Wait for PW Up (Wait for LDP session to Peer)– The LDP session is not yet ready
•
Wait for PW Up (Wait for remote VC label) - The device has advertised its VC label binding
to the VPLS peer, but has not yet received the peer’s VC label binding
•
Wait for PW Up (VC type mismatched) – A session is not formed because the VC type does
not match with its peer's VC type
•
Wait for PW Up (MTU mismatched) – The MTU sent to a peer is derived from the device's
global setting by the following formula: (system-mtu minus 26 bytes). When a system-mtu
value is not configured, a default value of 1500 is sent.
•
Wait for PW Up (Wait for LPD session to Peer) - The LDP session to the peer is down
•
Wait for PW Up (No Label Resource) - When configuring a new VPLS peer, the maximum
amount of VC labels that can be supported may exceed 64K, and cause the configuration
to be rejected. The maximum amount of VC labels available for VPLS instances is equal to
64K.
Uptime
The time in minutes that the entry has been operational.
Tnnl in use
The tunnel LSP used to reach the VPLS peer.
When VPLS traffic to the peer is load balanced across multiple tunnel LSPs, the tunnel LSPs
used to reach the peer are displayed.
LDP session
The state of the LDP session between this device and the VPLS peer.
Local VC lbl
The VC label value locally allocated for this peer for this VPLS instance. Packets forwarded
from the VPLS peer to this device are expected to contain this label.
This is the label that is advertised to the VPLS peer through LDP.
Remote VC lbl
The VC label allocated by the VPLS peer and advertised to this device through LDP.
The device applies this label to outbound MPLS packets sent to the VPLS peer.
Local VC MTU
The MTU value locally configured for this peer.
Remote VC MTU
The MTU value configured for the remote VPLS peer.
Local VC-Type
The VC type for this peer.
Remote VC-Type
The VC type for the remote VPLS peer.
CPU-Protection
Whether CPU protection configured on this VPLS instance is ON or OFF.
On Brocade NetIron XMR and Brocade MLX series
devices only: When CPU protection is enabled on this VPLS instance but is temporarily
unavailable due to 100% multicast FID usage, this field includes the message shown above.
Local Switching
Whether local switching behavior on a per-VPLS basis is enabled or disabled.
Extended Counter Indicates whether or not the extended counter is enabled for the configured VPLS.
Multicast
Snooping
Indicates whether the multicast snooping is enabled or disabled.
