Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In VPLS multi-homing scenarios, a PE accessed by CEs considers each CE a site. If a PE is accessed by multiple CEs, you must configure a multi-homing site for each CE. To create a multi-homing site, run the site name command.

Prerequisites

An RD has been configured for the VSI using the route-distinguisher (VSI-BGP view) command.

Follow-up Procedure

Run the site-id site-id command to configure a multi-homing site ID.

Precautions

When you run the undo site name command to delete a multi-homing site that has been created, all configurations of the multi-homing site will be deleted. Exercise caution when running this command.

Example

# Create a multi-homing site named company1 for the VSI named vsi1.
