Configuration procedure
1. Define VPN.
This function allows you to configure a VPN's basic information, including VPLS VPN networking
type (PE Type), VPN name, VSI ID, PW transport mode, audit interval, VPN description, and
contact information.
Precautions
•
Valid characters in a VPN name are letters, digits, and underscores.
•
VSI ID is generated randomly. You can modify it in the range 1 to 4294967295.
•
PW transport mode can be VLAN or Ethernet. VLAN is the default.
•
Audit interval ranges from 0 to 24 and defaults to 24. A value of 0 means no audit.
•
Contact is the current login user by default.
•
If you select PE for the PE type, skip step 3 and go to step 4 directly after you finish the
PE interface configuration.
2. PE or NPE configuration.
This function allows you to configure the PE information and AC information for a VPLS VPN.
The PE information includes PE name. The AC information includes UNI interface, service
instance, bandwidth, encapsulation type, encapsulation VLAN, access type, and CE device.
Steps to configure AC information
a. Click Add in the AC list area, and then on the pop-up page, select a PE interface.
b. Type the service instance, encapsulation VLAN and bandwidth, and select the
encapsulation type and access type.
c. Click Select behind the CE Device text box, and then on the pop-up page, select a CE
device.
d. Click OK.
•
To configure the PE information, click Add in the PE device list, and then on the pop-up
page, select one or multiple PE devices.
Precautions
•
You can only type a number in the range 1 to 4094 in the service instance text box.
•
You can only type a number in the range 1 to 1000 in the bandwidth text box.
•
Encapsulation VLAN IDs are in the range 1 to 4094. You can specify one or more VLAN
IDs or VLAN ID ranges. To specify a VLAN range, use a hyphen (-) between the start and
end VLAN IDs of the range. To specify multiple VLAN ranges, use a dot (,) to separate
two VLAN ranges. The specified VLAN ID(s) and VLAN ID range(s) must be in the
ascending order. For example: 2, 4-6, 8-10
•
The access type can be VLAN or Ethernet. VLAN is the default.
•
If you do not select a CE device, the system automatically adds a VCE.
•
If the encapsulation type is S-VID or S-VID Only Tagged, you must enter the encapsulation
VLAN IDs.
•
If the PE device you select when you configure AC information is not in the PE device list,
the system automatically adds the PE to the PE device list.
3. UPE configuration.
This function allows you to configure the UPE information and AC information for a VPLS VPN.
The PE information includes PE name, Main NPE and Backup NPE. The AC information includes
