peer signaling vpls (BGP-L2VPN-AD address family view)

Function

The peer signaling vpls command configures the VPLS signaling mode for a specified peer.

The undo peer signaling vpls command restores the default signaling mode of a specified peer.

By default, after the peer enable command is run in the L2VPN AD address family view, the BGP AD signaling mode is enabled for all peers or peer groups.

Format

peer ipv4-address signaling vpls

undo peer ipv4-address signaling vpls

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
ipv4-address	Specifies an IPv4 address of a peer. The loopback address of the peer is usually used as its IPv4 address.	It is in dotted decimal notation.
vpls	Configures the signaling mode of a specified peer or peer group as VPLS.	-

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In BGP 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 BGP VPLS scenario, configure vpls in the peer signaling command.

Prerequisites

A peer has been created using the peer enable command.

Precautions

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.

Example

# Configure the signaling mode for peer 10.1.1.1 in the L2VPN AD address family view when BGP VPLS is enabled.
