Layer 2 Routing Instances Configuration Hierarchy
Use the vpls routing instance type for point-to-multipoint LAN implementations between a set of sites in a VPN.
To configure routing instances for Layer 2 networks, include the following statements:
routing-instances {routing-instance-name {description text;forwarding-options {...forwarding-options...}instance-type (layer2-control | virtual-switch | vpls);interface interface-name;no-vrf-advertise;route-distinguisher (as-number:number | ip-address:number);vrf-export [ policy-names ];vrf-import [ policy-names ];vrf-table-label;vrf-target {export community-name;import community-name;}protocols {... protocols-configuration ...}routing-options {... routing-options-configuration ...}bridge-domains {bridge-domain-name {domain-type bridge;interface interface-name;routing-interface routing-interface-name;vlan-id (Bridge Domain or VLAN) (none | all | number);vlan-tags outer number inner number;bridge-options {interface-mac-limit limit {packet-action drop;}interface interface-name {interface-mac-limit limit {packet-action drop;}}mac-statistics;mac-table-size limit {packet-action drop;}no-mac-learning;static-mac mac-address;}}}}}
With the exception of the instance-type virtual-switch statement (which configures a virtual-switch routing instance) on M Series routers, you can include the statements at the following hierarchy levels:
- [edit]
- [edit logical-systems logical-system-name]
On M Series routers, the instance-type virtual-switch statement is not supported at the [edit logical-systems logical-system-name] hierarchy level.
