All,
I'm running into VPLS frustrations in an MX. I'd like to create a VPLS
instance in which a customer can plug in a device on any port in our network
and we'll pass the traffic no matter what type of traffic it is (we're just a
wire). For example, they can plug in a switch/router where the interface is
tagging traffic or not tagging traffic.
This particular example is one CE-switch to another CE-Switch, but we'll
eventually add several additional switches and routers in the same VPLS
instance.
Right now, I am seeing BPDU's received from one CE switch to another CE switch,
but I'm not seeing any coming back.
I'm also not able to ping from CE to CE on any VLAN.
Here is the Setup:
CE switch #1 (untagged/tagged) -------- MX240 (11.4R1.14) -------- P router
-------- Cisco PE -------- CE switch #2 (untagged/tagged)
CE switch #2 is receiving BPDUs from CE switch #1, however CE switch #1 isn't
receiving BPDU's from CE switch #2
Relevant MX240 config:
admin@interop-MX240# show interfaces ge-2/1/0
mtu 9192;
encapsulation ethernet-vpls;
unit 0 {
family vpls;
}
admin@interop-MX240# show routing-instances VPLS2001
instance-type vpls;
vlan-id all;
interface ge-2/1/0.0;
protocols {
vpls {
no-tunnel-services;
vpls-id 100;
mtu 9216;
neighbor 172.16.0.11;
}
}
admin@interop-MX240# show protocols layer2-control
mac-rewrite {
interface ge-2/1/0 {
protocol {
stp;
vtp;
cdp;
}
}
}
The VPLS VC is up from MX240 to Cisco PE.
admin@interop-MX240# run show vpls connections

If anyone has some config advice, i'm open to it!
