NOTE:
The interface bound with a VPLS instance does not support the redirection function (the
redirect
command). For more information about the
redirect
command, see
ACL and QoS Command Reference.

By default, an interface is not
bound with any VPLS instance.
NOTE:
•
“Layer 3 interface” in this configuration task does not include VLAN interfaces. You cannot bind a VPLS
instance directly with a VLAN interface. Instead, you can bind a Layer 2 Ethernet interface in the VLAN
with the VPLS instance. For more information, see “
Binding a service instance with a VPLS instance
.”
•
On the interface that is bound with a VPLS instance, do not configure other Layer 3 applications.
•
A P2P enabled VPLS instance cannot be bound with a Layer 3 interface.
•
If you bind a Layer 3 interface with a VPLS instance, IP related functions on the sub-interfaces of the
Layer 3 interface will fail. For example, the sub-interfaces cannot receive ARP or IGMP packets; they
cannot forward unicast or multicast packets. After you remove the binding, the IP related functions on the
sub-interfaces recover.
Binding a service instance with a VPLS instance
To bind a service instance with a VPLS instance, you need to:
•
Create the service instance on a Layer 2 Ethernet interface
•
Configure a packet matching rule for the service instance
•
Bind the service instance with the VPLS instance.
After these configurations, packets that arrive at the Layer 2 Ethernet interface and match the packet
matching rule will be forwarded by the bound VPLS instance.
