The ignore-ac-state command enables a VSI to retain in Up state regardless of the Attachment Circuit (AC) state.
The undo ignore-ac-state command restores the default setting.
By default, the VSI state changes with the AC state.
To verify whether a VSI can work normally on the new network before a VPLS network migration, run the ignore-ac-state command in the VSI view on the new device. This command enables the VSI to retain in Up state on the new device before the AC-side device is connected to the new device. When the AC interface is Down and the PW is Up, the VSI is Up. When the AC interface is Up and the PW is Down, the VSI is still Up.
