bridge vpls site-name site-id
Syntax [ no ] bridge vplsName vpls site-name siteName site-id siteId
[ multi-homed priority priority ]
Release Information Command introduced in JunosE Release 7.1.0.
multi-homed priority keywords and priority variable added in JunosE Release 9.3.0.
Description Configures a customer site name and a unique site identifier that belongs to the specified
VPLS instance that uses BGP as the signaling protocol. Optionally configures the site to
be multihomed. In a VPLS configuration, each customer site is represented by a customer
edge (CE) device located at the edge of the customer’s network. The router (VPLS edge
device, also known as VE router) communicates with the customer site by means of a
bridge network interface connection to the CE device. The
no version removes the site
name and site identifier from the VPLS instance, or removes the multihomed configuration
for the customer site and returns it to a single-homed state.
The bridge vpls site-name site-id command is not valid for a VPLS instance that uses
LDP as the signaling protocol. To configure a VPLS instance with LDP signaling, use the
mpls ldp vpls vpls-id command and the mpls ldp vpls neighbor command.
NOTE: The bridge vpls site-name site-id command is available for a VPLS instance
only after you issue the bridge vpls transport-virtual-router command, which creates
the VPLS instance and configures the transport virtual router.
Options
•
vplsName —Name of a VPLS instance created with the bridge vpls
transport-virtual-router command
•
siteName —Name of the site; string of up to 128 alphanumeric characters
•
siteId —Numerical identifier for the site; must be an unsigned 16-bit integer greater than
zero that is unique across the VPLS domain associated with the VPLS instance
•
priority —Number that sets the priority of this VPLS instance for a multi-homed site, in
the range 1–65535; priority is sent in BGP advertisements as the Local-Preference
attribute and determines whether the router hosting the VPLS instance becomes the
designated VE router for this multihomed site
