29 Configuring VPLS
29.1 Overview
This chapter describes how to configure VPLS. Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS)
provides a way to enable transparent Layer-2 Ethernet LAN services to geographically
dispersed customer sites connected by a Wide Area Network (WAN) by providing
support for traditional Layer-2 broadcast and multicast services.
29.2 Configuring VPLS using LDP
VPLS uses a set of Martini circuits grouped by a common VPLS identifier to achieve this
service objective. LDP is used to signal the constituent VCs and the service provider
may use either LDP to set up LSP tunnels to transport data through virtual circuits. This
chapter includes a step-by-step configuration of Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS).

Command Description
DUT1#configure terminal
Enter the Configure mode.
DUT1(config)#interface eth-0-9
Enter the Interface mode.
• eth-0-9—Specify the interface
DUT1(config-if)#no switchport
Configure the port to layer 3 port.
DUT1(config-if)#ip address 11.11.9.1/24
Create IP address on the port.
DUT1(config-if)# enable-ldp
