(Optional) Configuring a Huawei Device to Communicate with a Non-Huawei Device

Context

To enable a Huawei device to communicate with a non-Huawei device, disable the MTU check for a VSI.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run vsi vsi-name

    The VSI view is displayed.

  3. Run pwsignal bgp

    The VSI-BGP view is displayed.

  4. Run mtu-negotiate disable

    The VSI MTU check is disabled.

    The device is configured to use encapsulation type 19 defined in relevant standards for outgoing BGP VPLS packets.

    If the MTUs for the same VSI on two PEs are different, the two PEs cannot exchange information or establish a connection.

    To enable a Huawei device to communicate with non-Huawei devices that do not support the VSI MTU check on a BGP VPLS network, run the mtu-negotiate disable command to disable the VSI MTU check on the Huawei device.

  5. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
