Creating VE Interfaces

This part describes how to configure an L2VE interface that terminates the L2VPN and configure an L3VE interface that access L3VPN, and how to bind the VE interfaces to the relevant VE-Group.

Context

Do as follows on NPEs.

Procedure

Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
Run interface virtual-ethernet interface-number or interface global-ve ve-number
The VE interface view or Global-VE interface view is displayed.
According to the function of the interface, run:
- If the interface is L2VE:
```
ve-group ve-group-id l2-terminate
```
  The VE interface is set to an L2VE interface that terminates L2VPN, and the interface is bound to a VE-Group.
- If the interface is L3VE:
```
ve-group ve-group-id l3-access
```
  The VE interface is set to an L3VE interface that accesses the MPLS L3VPN, and it is bound to a VE-Group.
The L2VE interface and L3VE interface in the same VE-Group must be on the same board.
(Optional) Run l3ve track pw-state
Associates the L3VE interface state with the PW state.
Run commit
The configuration is committed.
