The peer signaling command configures the signaling mode for a specified peer or peer group.
The undo peer signaling command restores the default signaling mode of a specified peer or peer group.
By default, after the peer enable command is run in the L2VPN AD address family view, the BGP AD signaling is enabled for all peers or peer groups.
peer { peer-address | group-name } signaling { vpws | vpls | vpls-ad disable }
undo peer { peer-address | group-name } signaling { vpws | vpls | vpls-ad disable }
| Parameter | Description | Value |
|---|---|---|
| peer-address | Specifies an IPv4 address of a peer. The loopback address of the peer is usually used as its IPv4 address. | - |
| group-name | Specifies the name of a peer group. | The name is a string of 1 to 47 case-sensitive characters, with spaces not supported. When double quotation marks are used around the string, spaces are allowed in the string. |
| vpws | Configures the signaling mode of a specified peer or peer group as VPWS. | - |
| vpls | Configures the signaling mode of a specified peer or peer group as VPLS. | - |
| vpls-ad disable | Disables BGP AD signaling for a specified peer or peer group. | - |
Usage Scenario
In Kompella VLL, Kompella VPLS, and BGP AD VPLS scenarios, configure the signaling mode for peers or peer groups in the L2VPN AD address family view so that peers can advertise routes to each other. The parameters used in different scenarios are described as follows:
In the Kompella VLL scenario, configure vpws in the peer signaling command.
In the Kompella VPLS scenario, configure vpls in the peer signaling command.
In the BGP AD VPLS scenario, the BGP AD signaling is enabled for all peers or peer groups in the L2VPN AD address family view by default. Therefore, you need to run the peer { peer-address | group-name } signaling vpls-ad disable command to disable BGP AD signaling for a specified peer or peer group in Kompella VLL and Kompella VPLS scenarios.
Prerequisites
The peer enable command has been run to create a peer or peer group.
Precautions
For the same peer, the peer enable and peer { peer-address | group-name } signaling { vpws | vpls | vpls-ad disable } commands run in the L2VPN AD address family view are mutually exclusive with the peer enable command run in the VPLS address family view.
For the same peer, the peer { peer-address | group-name } signaling vpws command run in the L2VPN AD view is mutually exclusive with the peer enable command run in the L2VPN address family view.
The signaling mode configured for a peer is preferred over that configured for the peer group to which the peer belongs.
When a signaling mode is configured for a peer group but not configured for a peer that belongs to the peer group, the peer uses the signaling mode configured for its peer group.
