Configuring EVPN VPLS

About EVPN VPLS

EVPN Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) is a Layer 2 VPN technology that uses MP-BGP to advertise EVPN routes in the control plane and MPLS for forwarding in the data plane. EVPN VPLS provides point-to-multipoint forwarding services for users with MAC address table lookup in VSIs.

EVPN VPLS network model

As shown in Figure 1, an EVPN VPLS network contains the following devices:

·     Customer edge (CE)—Customer device directly connected to the service provider network.

·     Provider edge (PE)—Service provider device connected to CEs. PEs provide access to the EVPN VPLS network and forward traffic between customer network sites by using public tunnels.

A PE uses ACs, PWs, tunnels, and VSIs to provide EVPN VPLS services.

·     Attachment circuit (AC)—A physical or virtual link between a CE and a PE.

·     Pseudowire (PW)—A pair of unidirectional virtual connections in opposite directions between two PEs.

·     Public tunnel—A connection that carries one or more PWs across the MPLS or IP backbone. A public tunnel can be an LSP, GRE, or MPLS TE tunnel.

·     Virtual Switch Instance (VSI)—A virtual switch instance provides Layer 2 switching services for a VPLS instance (EVPN instance) on a PE. A VSI acts as a virtual switch that has all the functions of a conventional Ethernet switch, including source MAC address learning, MAC address aging, and flooding. VPLS uses VSIs to forward Layer 2 data packets in EVPN instances.

Figure 1 EVPN VPLS network

Neighbor auto-discovery and PW establishment

A PE uses IMET routes to automatically discover neighbors and establish PWs. When a PE receives an IMET route in a VSI, it compares the export route targets of the route with the import route targets of the EVPN instance associated with the VSI. If they are match, the PE will establish a unidirectional virtual connection based on the PE address and PW label information carried in the route. PW establishment is finished when two virtual connections in opposite directions are established between two PEs.

MAC address learning, aging, and withdrawal

Source MAC address learning

A PE uses the MAC address table of a VSI to forward Layer 2 unicast traffic for that VSI.

A PE learns source MAC addresses in the following ways:

·     Local MAC address learning—When the PE receives a frame from a local CE, it first identifies the VSI of the frame. Then, the PE adds the source MAC address of the frame (the MAC address of the local CE) to the MAC address table of the VSI. The output interface of the MAC address entry is the AC that receives the frame.

·     Remote MAC address learning—A PE advertises the MAC addresses of local CEs to remote PEs through BGP EVPN MAC/IP advertisement routes. When a remote PE receives the routes, it adds the received MAC addresses to the MAC address table of the corresponding VSI. The output interface is the PW.

MAC address aging

·     Local MAC address aging—The MAC address table uses an aging timer for each dynamic MAC address entry. If no packet is received from a MAC address before the aging timer expires, VPLS deletes the MAC address.

·     Remote MAC address aging—Remote MAC addresses advertised through MAC/IP advertisement routes are not removed from the MAC address table until routes to withdraw the MAC addresses are received.

MAC address withdrawal

When an AC goes down, the PE deletes MAC addresses on the AC. Then it sends an LDP address withdrawal message to notify all other PEs in the EVPN instance to delete those MAC addresses.

Traffic forwarding and flooding

Unicast traffic forwarding

After a PE receives a unicast packet with a known destination MAC address from an AC, the PE searches the MAC address table of the VSI bound to the AC for packet forwarding.

·     If the output interface in the entry is a PW, the PE inserts the PW label of the PW to the packet, and adds the public tunnel header to the packet. It then forwards the packet to the remote PE over the PW. If the public tunnel is an LSP or MPLS TE tunnel, each packet on the PW contains two labels. The inner label is the PW label, which identifies the PW and ensures that the packet is forwarded to the correct VSI. The outer label is the public LSP or MPLS TE tunnel label, which ensures that the packet is correctly forwarded to the remote PE.

·     If the output interface in the entry is a local interface, the PE directly forwards the packet to the local interface.

After a PE receives a unicast packet with a known destination MAC address from a PW, the PE searches the MAC address table of the VSI bound to the PW for packet forwarding. The PE forwards the packet through the output interface in the matching MAC address entry.

Flooding

When a PE receives flood traffic from an AC in a VSI, it will flood the traffic to the following interfaces:

·     All ACs in the VSI except for the incoming AC.

·     All PWs associated with the VSI.

When a PE receives flood traffic from a PW, it will flood the traffic to all ACs in the VSI bound to the PW.

Full mesh and split horizon

A Layer 2 network requires a loop prevention protocol such as STP to avoid loops. However, a loop prevention protocol on PEs brings management and maintenance difficulties. Therefore, EVPN VPLS uses the following methods to prevent loops:

·     Full mesh—Every two PEs in an EVPN instance must establish PWs. The PWs form a full mesh among PEs in the EVPN instance.

·     Split horizon—A PE does not forward packets received from a PW to any other PWs in the same VSI but only forwards those packets to ACs.

EVPN VPLS multihoming

About EVPN VPLS multihoming

As shown in Figure 2, EVPN VPLS supports deploying multiple PEs at a site for redundancy and high availability. On the redundant PEs, Ethernet links connected to the site form an ES that is uniquely identified by an ESI. EVPN VPLS supports only dualhoming.

Figure 2 EVPN VPLS multihoming

DF election

To prevent redundant PEs from sending duplicate flood traffic to a multihomed site, a designated forwarder (DF) is elected from the PEs to forward flood traffic to the local site. PEs that fail the election are assigned the backup designated forwarder (BDF) role. BDFs do not forward flood traffic to the local site.

Figure 3 DF election

 

DF election can be performed by using a VLAN tag-based algorithm or preference-based algorithm.

·     VLAN tag-based DF election

PEs select a DF for each AC based on the VLAN tag and PE IP address as follows:

a.     Arrange source IP addresses in Ethernet segment routes with the same ESI in ascending order and assign a sequence number to each IP address, starting from 0.

b.     Divide the lowest VLAN ID permitted on an AC by the number of the redundant PEs, and match the reminder to the sequence numbers of IP addresses.

c.     Assign the DF role to the PE that uses the IP address with the matching sequence number.

The following uses PE 1 and PE 2 in Figure 4 as an example to explain the DF election procedure:

a.     PE 1 and PE 2 send Ethernet segment routes to each other.

b.     The PEs assign sequence numbers 0 and 1 to IP addresses 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2 in the Ethernet segment routes, respectively.

c.     The PEs divide 4 (the lowest VLAN ID permitted by the ACs) by 2 (the number of redundant PEs), and match the reminder 0 to the sequence numbers of the IP addresses.

d.     The DF role is assigned to PE 1 at 1.1.1.1.

Figure 4 VLAN tag-based DF election

 

·     Preference-based DF election

PEs select a DF for each ES based on the DF election preference, the Don't Preempt Me (DP) bit in Ethernet segment routes, and PE IP address. The DP bit can be set to one of the following values:

¡     1—Non-revertive mode is enabled for preference-based DF election (DF preemption is disabled). A DF retains its role when a new DF is elected.

¡     0—Non-revertive mode is disabled for preference-based DF election (DF preemption is enabled).

Preference-based DF election uses the following rules to select a DF for an ES:

a.     The PE with higher preference becomes the DF.

b.     If two PEs have the same preference, the PE with the DP bit set to 1 becomes the DF.

c.     If both of the PEs have the DP bit set to 1, the PE with a lower IP address becomes the DF.

As shown in Figure 5, PE 2 is the DF for ES 1, and PE 1 is the DF for ES 2.

Figure 5 Preference-based DF election

Redundancy mode

The device supports single-active redundancy mode and all-active redundancy mode of EVPN VPLS multihoming.

·     Single-active mode—This mode allows one of the redundant PEs to forward traffic. When the primary PE becomes unavailable because of device failure or link failure, traffic is switched to the secondary PE for forwarding.

·     All-active mode—This mode allows all redundant PEs to a multihomed site to load share unicast traffic.

IP aliasing

In all-active redundancy mode, all redundant PEs of an ES advertise the ES to remote PEs through MP-BGP. IP aliasing allows a remote PE to add the IP addresses of all the redundant PEs as the next hops for the MAC or ARP information received from one of these PEs. This mechanism creates ECMP routes between the remote PE and the redundant PEs.

Local FRR for EVPN VPLS

As shown in Figure 6, CE 1 is dualhomed to PE 1 and PE 2, and PE 1 is the DF. When the AC on PE 1 fails, PE 1 deletes the corresponding MAC address entries and advertises the local unreachable event to PE 2 and remote PEs (PE 3 in this example). Then, the remote PEs will switch traffic destined for CE 1 to the tunnels to PE 2. This process takes some time. PE 1 might receive packets destined for CE 1 before the remote PEs are notified of the unreachable event and perform link switchover. In this situation, PE 1 drops the packets, because the AC's MAC address entries have been deleted. To resolve this issue, enable local FRR on PE 1. If an AC fails, PE 1 changes the output interface of the AC's MAC address entries to the index of the PW between PE 1 and PE 2. When receiving packets from remote PEs after its AC fails, PE 1 forwards the packets to PE 2 over the PW to prevent traffic loss.

Figure 6 Local FRR network diagram

ARP flood suppression

ARP flood suppression reduces ARP request broadcasts by enabling a PE to reply to ARP requests on behalf of VMs.

As shown in Figure 7, this feature snoops ARP requests, ARP responses, and BGP EVPN routes to populate the ARP flood suppression table with local and remote MAC addresses. If an ARP request has a matching entry, the PE replies to the request on behalf of the VM. If no match is found, the PE floods the request to both local and remote sites.

Figure 7 ARP flood suppression

ARP flood suppression uses the following workflow:

1.     CE1 sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of CE 2.

2.     PE 1 creates a suppression entry for CE 1, floods the ARP request to local CEs and remote PEs (PE 2 and PE 3) in the VSI, and sends the suppression entry to PE 2 and PE 3 through BGP EVPN. Unicast-mode flooding is used to illustrate the workflow.

3.     PE 2 and PE 3 de-encapsulate the ARP request and broadcast the request to local CEs in the VSI.

4.     CE 2 sends an ARP reply after it receives the ARP request.

5.     PE 2 creates a suppression entry for CE 2, forwards the ARP reply to PE 1, and sends the suppression entry to PE 1 and PE 3 through BGP EVPN.

6.     PE 1 de-encapsulates the ARP reply and forwards the ARP reply to CE 1.

7.     CE 4 sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of CE 1.

8.     PE 1 creates a suppression entry for CE 4 and replies to the ARP request.

9.     CE 3 sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of CE 1.

10.     PE 3 creates a suppression entry for CE 3 and replies to the ARP request.

Control word

The control word field is between the MPLS label stack and the Layer 2 data. It carries control information for the Layer 2 frame, for example, the sequence number.

The control word feature has the following functions:

·     Avoids fragment disorder. In multipath forwarding, fragments received might be disordered. The control word feature reorders the fragments according to the sequence number carried in the control word field.

·     Identifies the original payload length for packets that include padding.

The control word field is optional for EVPN VPLS. You can configure whether to carry the control word field in packets sent on PWs. If you enable the control word feature on PEs at both ends of a PW, packets transmitted on the PW carry the control word field. Otherwise, the packets do not carry the control word field.

MAC mobility

MAC mobility refers to the movement of a VM or host from one ES to another. The source PE is unaware of the MAC move event. To notify other PEs of the change, the destination PE advertises a MAC/IP advertisement route for the MAC address. The source PE withdraws the old route for the MAC address after receiving the new route. The MAC/IP advertisement route has a sequence number that increases when the MAC address moves. The sequence number identifies the most recent move if the MAC address moves multiple times.

EVPN E-tree

About EVPN E-tree

In an EVPN VPLS network, EVPN E-tree isolates unicast and flood traffic (broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast) of ACs in the same EVPN instance based on the AC roles. With EVPN E-tree, the device isolates unicast and flood traffic of ACs in the same EVPN instance as follows:

·     Leaf ACs can access root ACs.

·     Leaf ACs cannot access each other.

·     Root ACs can access each other and access leaf ACs.

Figure 8 EVPN E-tree network diagram

Local traffic isolation

EVPN E-tree isolates traffic between local ACs on a PE as follows:

·     When the PE receives packets from a leaf AC on a VSI, it forwards the packets only to root ACs on the VSI.

·     When the PE receives packets from a root AC on a VSI, it forwards the packets to all local ACs on the VSI except the incoming AC.

Remote known unicast traffic isolation

With EVPN E-tree, PEs perform MAC address learning for hosts attached to leaf ACs as follows:

1.     When a PE receives a packet from a leaf AC, it learns the source MAC address of the packet and adds the Leaf flag to the MAC address.

2.     The PE advertises the MAC address to the remote PE in a MAC/IP advertisement route. The route carries the E-tree extended community attribute that contains the Leaf flag.

3.     The remote PE adds the MAC address that carries the Leaf flag to the MAC address table.

When one PE receives a packet destined for a host on another PE from a local AC, it searches the MAC address table for the destination MAC address. If the entry of the destination MAC address has the Leaf flag and the packet is also from a leaf AC, the PE discards the packet. In other situations, the PE forwards the packet.

Remote flood traffic isolation

With EVPN E-tree, a PE assigns a Leaf label to the leaf ACs of each VSI. The PE adds the Leaf label to the E-tree extended community attribute in Ethernet auto-discovery routes and advertises the routes to remote PEs.

EVPN E-tree isolates flood traffic from one PE to another PE as follows:

1.     When a PE receives a flood packet from a leaf AC on a VSI, it adds the Leaf label of that VSI to the packet, and then adds the private network label and public network label to the packet. After that, the PE forwards the packet to the remote PE.

2.     The remote PE removes the private network label and public network label and finds the Leaf label. Then, the PE forwards the packet only to local root ACs on the same VSI.

LDP or static PW ACs for EVPN PWs

This feature ensures that a traditional VPLS network and an EVPN VPLS network can communicate with each other. The LDP or static PWs in the VPLS network are configured as ACs to the EVPN VPLS network. These ACs are referred to as UPWs in the EVPN VPLS network. Packets can be forwarded between EVPN PWs and UPWs, so the VPLS and EVPN VPLS networks can communicate with each other.

With this feature, an LDP or static PW can be single-homed to an EVPN PW or two LDP or static PWs can be dual-homed to two EVPN PWs.

As shown in Figure 9, in the VPLS network, PE 1 is connected to PE 2 and PE 3 through LDP or static PWs. One of the PWs is the primary PW and the other PW is the backup PW. The PWs are UPWs. In the EVPN VPLS network, PE 4 is connected to PE 2 and PE 3 through EVPN PWs. The UPWs in the VPLS network act as ACs for the EVPN VPLS network. When PE 2 or PE 3 receives packets from the UPWs, it decapsulates MPLS encapsulation from the packets and looks up the MAC address table for a matching EVPN PW. Then, the PE adds MPLS encapsulation to the packets based on the EVPN PW and forwards the packets to PE 4. When PE 2 or PE 3 receives packets from an EVPN PW, it uses the same procedure to process the packets.

By default, a Layer 3 interface is not mapped to a VSI.

 

Mapping an Ethernet service instance to a VSI

About this task

An Ethernet service instance matches a list of VLANs on a site-facing interface by using a frame match criterion. The frame match criterion specifies the characteristics of traffic from the VLANs, such as tagging status and VLAN IDs. The PE assigns traffic from the VLANs to a VSI by mapping the Ethernet service instance to the VSI. The VSI performs Layer 2 forwarding for the VLANs based on its MAC address table.

For more information about the commands in this task, see VPLS in MPLS Command Reference.

Restrictions and guidelines

An Ethernet service instance can contain only one match criterion. To change the match criterion, you must remove the original criterion first. When you remove the match criterion in an Ethernet service instance, the mapping between the service instance and the VSI is removed automatically.

Setting the advertisement delay timer for Ethernet auto-discovery routes

About this task

The advertisement delay timer for Ethernet auto-discovery routes helps reduce the traffic loss caused by a PE reboot at a multihomed EVPN VPLS network site.

At a multihomed EVPN VPLS network site, CE 1 is dualhomed to PE 1 and PE 2 through an aggregate link or smart trunk, and PE 3 is at a remote site. PE 1 forwards all traffic sent from CE 1 to the remote site, and PE 3 forwards the traffic that the remote site sends to CE 1 to both PE 1 and PE 2. When PE 1 reboots, it advertises Ethernet auto-discovery routes that carry next hop information to PE 3. If PE 3 has not received the MAC/IP advertisement routes advertised by PE 2 when receiving the Ethernet auto-discovery routes, it will forward traffic to both PE 1 and PE 2. In this situation, PE 1 does not have MAC address entries for CE 1 and drops the traffic.

To resolve this issue, set the advertisement delay timer for Ethernet auto-discovery routes on the CE-facing interface of PE 1. This timer allows PE 3 to receive the MAC/IP advertisement routes advertised by PE 2 before the Ethernet auto-discovery routes advertised by PE 1 and update its MAC address table timely.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number

3.     Set the advertisement delay timer for Ethernet auto-discovery routes.

Configuring local FRR for EVPN VPLS

About this task

Local fast reroute (FRR) enables two PEs at a multihomed EVPN VPLS network site to set up a PW between them. This feature helps reduce the traffic loss caused by AC failure.

Restrictions and guidelines

On an EVPN instance, EVPN instance-specific local FRR configuration takes precedence over global local FRR configuration.

If you have executed the evpn frr local enable command on an EVPN instance, the undo evpn multihoming vpls-frr local command does not disable local FRR for the EVPN instance.

Perform this task on redundant PEs at a multihomed EVPN VPLS network site.

Generating MAC address entries for received MAC/IP advertisement routes

About this task

This task helps reduce the traffic loss caused by AC failure at a dualhomed EVPN VPLS network site.

At a multihomed EVPN VPLS network site, CE 1 is dualhomed to PE 1 and PE 2 through an aggregate link or smart trunk, and PE 3 is at a remote site. PE 1 forwards all traffic sent from CE 1 to the remote site, and PE 3 forwards the traffic that the remote site sends to CE 1 to both PE 1 and PE 2. When the AC on PE 1 fails, PE 1 withdraws the MAC/IP advertisement routes advertised to PE 2 and PE 3. In this situation, PE 3 does not have MAC address entries for CE 1 until PE 2 learns MAC address entries for CE 1 and advertises them to PE 3. As a result, traffic interruption occurs.

To resolve this issue, perform this task on PE 2. When receiving the MAC/IP advertisement routes advertised by PE 1, PE 2 generates MAC address entries for the routes and advertises the entries to PE 3. PE 3 can use those MAC address entries to forward traffic to CE 1 when the AC on PE 1 fails.

Prerequisites

You must enable FRR for EVPN VPLS before you perform this task.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable the device to generate MAC address entries for received MAC/IP advertisement routes.

evpn multihoming re-originated mac

By default, the device does not generate MAC address entries for received MAC/IP advertisement routes.

 

Enabling VSIs to ignore the state of ACs

About this task

This task helps reduce the traffic loss caused by AC failure at a multihomed EVPN VPLS network site that uses single-active redundancy mode.

At a multihomed EVPN VPLS network site that uses single-active redundancy mode, CE 1 is dualhomed to PE 1 and PE 2 through a smart trunk. PE 1 is the primary PE, and PE 2 is the secondary PE. When the AC on PE 1 fails, PE 1 and PE 2 act as follows:

·     PE 1 withdraws advertised Ethernet auto-discovery routes.

·     PE 2 brings up its AC and advertises Ethernet auto-discovery routes to remote PEs.

The remote PEs switch traffic to the paths to PE 2 only after receiving the Ethernet auto-discovery routes advertised by PE 2, and traffic loss occurs during path switchover. To resolve this issue, enable VSIs to ignore the state of ACs on PE 2. This feature allows PE 2 to advertise Ethernet auto-discovery routes to remote PEs regardless of the state of ACs and speeds up path switchover when the AC on PE 1 fails.

Restrictions and guidelines for AC state ignore configuration

On a VSI, VSI-specific AC state ignore configuration takes precedence over global AC state ignore configuration.

If you have executed the ignore-ac-state enable command on a VSI, the undo l2vpn ignore-ac-state command does not disable the VSI from ignoring the state of ACs.

Perform this task together with the feature of generating MAC address entries for received MAC/IP advertisement routes.

By default, a VSI uses the global AC state ignore configuration.

 

Disabling advertisement of EVPN multihoming routes

About this task

EVPN multihoming routes include Ethernet auto-discovery routes and Ethernet segment routes.

In a multihomed EVPN network, perform this task on a redundant PE before you reboot it. This operation allows other PEs to refresh their EVPN routing table to prevent traffic interruption caused by the reboot.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Disable advertisement of EVPN multihoming routes and withdraw the EVPN multihoming routes that have been advertised to remote sites.

evpn multihoming advertise disable

By default, the device advertises EVPN multihoming routes.

 

Ignoring the Ethernet tag on advertisement of Ethernet auto-discovery and MAC/IP advertisement routes

About this task

Perform this task on the redundant PEs at a dualhomed site.

This task enables the device to perform the following operations:

·     Withdraw the Ethernet auto-discovery routes and MAC/IP advertisement routes that have been advertised.

·     Set the Ethernet tag to 0 for the Ethernet auto-discovery routes and MAC/IP advertisement routes and re-advertise them.

After you configure ESIs for ACs on the redundant PEs at a dualhomed site, the PEs carry Ethernet tags in Ethernet auto-discovery and MAC/IP advertisement routes advertised to remote sites. If the remote peers are unable to identify Ethernet tags, you must perform this task on the redundant PEs to enable communication with the peers.

Restrictions and guidelines

After you assign an ESI to a Layer 2 Ethernet or aggregate interface, you must map the Ethernet service instances created on the interface to different VSIs. If two interfaces use the same ESI, you must map the Ethernet service instances created on them to different VSIs.

After you assign an ESI to a Layer 3 main interface, its subinterfaces inherit the ESI if they do not have one. In addition, you must map two subinterfaces to different VSIs if the subinterfaces have the same ESI.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable the device to ignore the Ethernet tag when advertising Ethernet auto-discovery routes and MAC/IP advertisement routes.

evpn multihoming advertise ignore-ethernet-tag

By default, the device advertises Ethernet auto-discovery routes and MAC/IP advertisement routes that carry Ethernet tags.

 

Enabling the device to monitor the BGP peer status of another local edge device

About this task

Perform this task on the CE-facing interfaces of the edge devices multihomed to a site to prevent device reboots from causing inter-site forwarding failure.

This task excludes unavailable edge devices from DF election at a multihomed site. After an edge device recovers from failure and brings up its CE-facing interface, it starts the advertisement delay timer for Ethernet segment routes and checks the status of the BGP peer specified in the evpn track peer command. If the BGP peer comes up before the timer expires, the edge device advertises Ethernet segment routes to the peer. If the BGP peer is still down when the timer expires, the edge device does not advertise Ethernet segment routes to the peer. The edge devices then perform DF election based on the Ethernet segment routes they have received.

Procedure

Enabling conversational learning for remote ARP entries

About this task

By default, the device issues a remote ARP entry to the hardware after the ARP information is advertised to the local site by BGP EVPN routes. This feature enables the device to issue a remote ARP entry to the hardware only when the entry is required for packet forwarding. This feature saves hardware resources on the device.

After you enable this feature, the device periodically examines whether the ARP entries are used for packet forwarding. An ARP entry is deleted if its aging timer expires.

When a large number of remote ARP entries exist, set an appropriate aging timer to avoid traffic interruption caused by the aging of ARP entries. As a best practice, set the aging timer value higher than or equal to the number of remote ARP entries divided by 200.

Restrictions and guidelines

Use this feature only on an EVPN network.

Procedure

Confining floods to the local site

About this task

By default, the PE floods broadcast, unknown unicast, and unknown multicast frames received from the local site to the following interfaces in the frame's VSI:

·     All site-facing interfaces except for the incoming interface.

·     All PWs.

To confine a kind of flood traffic to the site-facing interfaces, disable flooding for that kind of flood traffic on the VSI. The VSI will not flood the corresponding frames to PWs.

To exclude a remote MAC address from the flood suppression done by using this feature, enable selective flood for the MAC address. The PE will flood the frames destined for the MAC address to remote sites.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter VSI view.

vsi vsi-name

3.     Disable flooding for the VSI.

flooding disable

By default, flooding is enabled for a VSI.

4.     (Optional.) Enable selective flood for a MAC address.

selective-flooding mac-address mac-address

 

Enabling ARP flood suppression

About this task

Use ARP flood suppression to reduce ARP request broadcasts.

The aging timer is fixed at 25 minutes for ARP flood suppression entries. If the flooding disable command is configured, set the MAC aging timer to a higher value than the aging timer for ARP flood suppression entries on all PEs. This setting prevents the traffic blackhole that occurs when a MAC address entry ages out before its ARP flood suppression entry ages out. To set the MAC aging timer, use the mac-address timer command.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter VSI view.

vsi vsi-name

3.     Enable ARP flood suppression.

arp suppression enable

By default, ARP flood suppression is disabled.

 

Enabling packet statistics for an AC

Restrictions and guidelines for AC packet statistics

For the ac statistics enable command to take effect on a Layer 3 interface, you must map the Layer 3 interface to a VSI. When you modify the VSI mapping, the packet statistics of the interface are cleared. To display the statistics, use the display l2vpn interface verbose command.

For the statistics enable command to take effect on an Ethernet service instance, you must configure a frame match criterion for the Ethernet service instance and map it to a VSI. When you modify the frame match criterion or VSI mapping, the packet statistics of the instance are cleared. To display the statistics, use the display l2vpn service-instance verbose command.

To clear packet statistics for ACs, use the reset l2vpn statistics ac command.

Enabling packet statistics for a Layer 3 interface

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enter interface view.

¡     Enter Layer 3 Ethernet interface view.

Enabling SNMP notifications for L2VPN PWs

About this task

This feature enables L2VPN to generate SNMP notifications when PW deletions, PW switchovers, or PW status changes occur. For L2VPN event notifications to be sent correctly, you must also configure SNMP on the device. For more information about SNMP configuration, see the network management and monitoring configuration guide for the device.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable SNMP notifications for L2VPN PWs.

snmp-agent trap enable l2vpn [ pw-delete | pw-switch | pw-up-down ] *

By default, SNMP notifications for L2VPN PWs are disabled.

For more information about this command, see VPLS commands in MPLS Command Reference.

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 14:

·     PE 1 and PE 2 are edge devices on both the VPLS network and EVPN VPLS network.

·     PE 1, PE 2, and PE 4 use LDP to establish LDP PWs.

·     On PE 1 and PE 2, configure LDP PWs as UPWs (ACs) for EVPN PWs to ensure that the VPLS and EVPN VPLS networks can communicate with each other.

·     PE 4 is dual-homed to PE 1 and PE 2 through two LDP PWs (UPWs).

Example: Configuring LDP PWs as ACs for EVPN PWs

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 17:

·     PE 1 and PE 2 are edge devices on both the VPLS network and EVPN VPLS network.

·     PE 1, PE 2, and PE 4 use LDP to establish LDP PWs.

·     On PE 1 and PE 2, configure LDP PWs as UPWs (ACs) for EVPN PWs to ensure that the VPLS and EVPN VPLS networks can communicate with each other.

·     PE 4 is dual-homed to PE 1 and PE 2 through two LDP PWs (UPWs).
