Configuring Layer 2 Circuit Signaling for Pseudowire Subscriber Logical Interfaces
This topic describes the steps for configuring Layer 2 circuit signaling used for the pseudowire subscriber logical interface support. You can also use Layer 2 VPN signaling for pseudowire subscriber logical interfaces. The two methods are mutually exclusive; you can use only one method for a particular pseudowire.
To configure Layer 2 circuit signaling for pseudowire interfaces:
- Specify that you want to configure Layer 2 circuit parameters
at the protocols hierarchy level.[edit protocols]user@host# edit l2circuit
- Specify the IP address of the neighbor, to identify the
PE router used for the Layer 2 circuit. [edit protocols l2circuit]user@host# edit neighbor 192.168.102.15
- Specify the interface used by the Layer 2 circuit traffic. [edit protocols l2circuit neighbor 192.168.102.15]user@host# edit interface ps1.0
- Configure the virtual circuit ID that identifies the Layer
2 circuit for the pseudowire.[edit protocols l2circuit neighbor 192.168.102.15 interface ps1.0]user@host# set virtual-circuit-id 5
- (Optional) If multiple VLAN interfaces are carried over
the pseudowire Layer 2 payload, configure the no-vlan-id-validate statement. This statement prevents VLAN validation in the signaling. [edit protocols l2circuit neighbor 192.168.102.15 interface ps1.0]user@host# set no-vlan-id-validate
