Configuring a Single-Root mLDP P2MP Tunnel

This section describes how to configure a single-root mLDP P2MP tunnel to minimize redundant traffic.

Procedure

  • Perform the following steps on the root node:
    1. Run system-view

      The system view is displayed.

    2. Run vsi vsi-name

      A VSI is created, and the VSI view is displayed.

    3. (Optional) Run ignore-ac-state

      The VSI is configured to ignore AC status changes.

    4. Run inclusive-provider-tunnel

      The VSI-Inclusive view is created and displayed.

    5. Run root

      The current device is specified as the root node for multicast VPLS, and the VSI-Inclusive-Root view is displayed.

    6. Run mldp p2mp

      The tunnel type is specified as mLDP P2MP for the local VSI, and the VSI-Inclusive-Root-mLDP-P2MP view is displayed.

    7. Run root-ip ip-address

      An IP address is specified for the mLDP P2MP tunnel's root node.

    8. Run commit

      The configuration is committed.

  • Perform the following steps on each leaf node:
    1. Run system-view

      The system view is displayed.

    2. Run vsi vsi-name

      A VSI is created, and the VSI view is displayed.

    3. Run inclusive-provider-tunnel

      The VSI-Inclusive view is created and displayed.

    4. Run leaf

      The current device is specified as a leaf node for multicast VPLS.

    5. Run commit

      The configuration is committed.
