Release Information

Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 9.1.

Description

Enable automatic site identifiers for VPLS routing instances.

Options

collision-detect-time—The time in seconds to wait after a claim advertisement is sent to the other routers in a VPLS instance before a PE router can begin using a site identifier. If the PE router receives a competing claim advertisement for the same site identifier during this time period, it initiates the collision resolution procedure for site identifiers.

new-site-wait-time—The time in seconds to wait to receive VPLS information for a newly configured routing instance or a new site. This time interval is also applied whenever the automatic site identifier feature is activated on a VPLS routing instance other than at startup. Effectively, this timer indicates how long to wait before an attempt is made to allocate a site identifier. This timer is also triggered whenever a VPLS routing instance is enabled.

reclaim-wait-time—The time in seconds to wait to receive VPLS information for a newly configured routing instance or a new site. This time interval is also applied whenever the automatic site identifier feature is activated on a VPLS routing instance other than at startup. Effectively, this timer indicates how long to wait before an attempt is made to allocate a site identifier. This timer is also triggered whenever a VPLS routing instance is enabled. You can configure two values for this option: the minimum wait time and the maximum wait time.

startup-wait-time—The time in seconds to wait at startup to receive all the VPLS information for the route targets configured on the other PE routers included in the VPLS routing instance.

Required Privilege Level
