Hello,

I recently faced to a strange problem, which i can't understand. Suppose this network diagram:


MPLS Cloud --- PE (MX80) ---- CE (EX4200) ---- PE (MX80) ---- MPLS Cloud.

As You can see, EX4200 has two uplinks to two MX80, which are part of MPLS network infrastructure. VPLS Multihoming is configured:


PE1 (gavar)

misak@mx-gavar> show configuration routing-instances Miom_ISP-Inet | display inheritance | except ##

instance-type vpls;
vlan-id 342;
interface ge-1/1/9.342;
routing-interface irb.342;
route-distinguisher 10.255.255.33:342;
vrf-target target:65500:342;
protocols {
    vpls {
        site-range 100;
        no-tunnel-services;
        site martuni {
            site-identifier 32;
            multi-homing;
            site-preference primary;
            interface ge-1/1/9.342;
        }
        site gavar {
            site-identifier 33;
        }
        mac-flush;
        connectivity-type irb;
}


}







PE2 (getap)

instance-type vpls;
vlan-id 342;
interface ge-1/1/9.342;
route-distinguisher 10.255.255.10:342;
vrf-target target:65500:342;
protocols {
    vpls {
        site-range 100;
        no-tunnel-services;
        site martuni {
            site-identifier 32;
            multi-homing;
            site-preference backup;
            interface ge-1/1/9.342;
        }
        site getap {
            site-identifier 10;
        }
        mac-flush;
    }
}


CE site is called martuni, and EX4200 on that site is configured with vlan-id all on both uplinks.


Now the problem - when one uplinks on EX4200 go down, or for example one router (getap) goes down, I shouldn't have any problem with this routing instance, but in this case interface ge-1/1/9.342 goes to CCC-Down state and stops passing traffic.

There are lot of other VPLS configured on router and that links, and i noticed that only VPLS-es that exist only on these two PEs show this behavior. If You have VPLS configured on other PE router throughout MPLS cloud, links stays up and work as expected.

I tried lot of knobs and options, but no luck. Can anyone explain this behavior? Any help highly appreciated.
