Release Information

Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 7.5.

Description

Specify a multihomed interface as the primary interface for the VPLS site. If there are multiple interfaces, the remaining interfaces are activated only when the primary interface goes down. If no active interfaces are configured at the site level, it is assumed that all traffic for a VPLS site travels through a single, nonmultihomed PE router.

The remaining statements are explained separately.

For FEC 128, use the [edit routing-instances instance-name protocols vpls multi-homing] hierarchy level.
