Configuring the L2VPN VPLS address family and activating the BGP4
peering session
This section describes how to configure the L2VPN VPLS address family and activate BGP4
peering. More information about the L2VPN VPLS address family is in the section
“About the L2VPN
VPLS address family” on page 761.
NOTE
It is recommended that the user activates peering on the L2VPN VPLS address family after
performing steps 1 – 5 in
Table 144 . Otherwise, the user needs to clear the entire peering session.
To configure the L2VPN VPLS address family, enter commands such as the following.
Brocade(config)# router bgp
Brocade(config-bgp)# address-family l2vpn vpls
Brocade(config-bgp-l2vpn-vpls)# neighbor 10.10.1.1 activate
Brocade(config-bgp-l2vpn-vpls)# exit
Syntax: [no] address-family l2vpn vpls
Syntax: [no] neighbor IPv4-address | peer group name activate | remote-as | send-community
extended
The activate command enables the exchange and updating of routes within the L2VPN VPLS
address family.
The send-community extended command enables the sending of extended community attributes to
this neighbor.
Clearing the BGP L2VPN route table
The user can clear routes from the BGP L2VPN route table with or without resetting the BGP
session. Use the appropriate commands in this section.
