ve-group (VE interface view)

Function

The ve-group command configures a VE interface to work in multi-service access mode and binds the VE interface to a specified VE-Group.

The undo ve-group command configures a VE interface to work in common mode.

By default, VE interfaces work in common mode.

Format

ve-group ve-group-id l3-terminate

undo ve-group

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
ve-group-id	VE-Group ID.	The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 8192 .
l3-terminate	Indicates that a VE interface is used as a Layer 3 VE interface to terminate an MPLS L3VPN. Global-VE interfaces cannot be configured as L3-terminate VE interfaces.	-

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In an L3VPN accessing BRAS scenario, a VE-Group contains only one L3-terminate VE interface and one L3-access VE interface.

Precautions

The two VE interfaces in a VE-Group must be on the same board.

Among VE interfaces, only L3-terminate VE and L3-access VE interfaces can work in QinQ termination mode.

An L2-terminate VE interface, an L3-terminate VE interface, and an L3-access VE interface must have their own sub-interfaces created before VLAN service access is implemented.

In L3VPN accessing BRAS scenarios, a VE-Group must be bound to an L3-terminate VE interface before an L3-access VE sub-interface is created.

Example

# Configure a specified interface as an L3-terminate VE interface in an L3VPN accessing BRAS scenario.
