Hi,

Actually I did't face any immplementaion for AToM over low end devices

As you know there is 2 types of Ethernet over MPLS implementations.

VC Type 4 is used for Ethernet VLAN mode.

VC Type 5 is used for Ethernet Port mode.

After checking the IOS image you use(c3825-adventerprisek9-mz.124-11.T.bin) i found that this image support AToM for Ethernet port mode only, so AToM VLAN-mode not supported in this image.

So try Ethernet over MPLS port mode (VC-Type-5) by using xconnect command instead of legacy mpls l2transport command, and if it's works fine use http://www.cisco.com/go/fn to find the image that support VLAN-mode.

Please rate helpful posts.

Ok, here is my config :

I have a network made of provider point to point layer 2 virtual link (mean that I need to configure a mpls subinterface in the good vlan)

On this network, I setup my MPLS network with L3 VPNs.

Can i setup a EoMPLS with VC Type 4 as i'm already in a provider L2 VPN ?

Hi pica,

As far as i understand you have operational MPLS network and you need to implement AToM VC Type-4 on Dot1Q sub-interface (Correct me if i understand it wrong)

Again the IOS image you use doesn't support VC-Type 4.

Please rate helpful posts.

Ok maybe my explanation is not clear. I understand that i need to change the ios but :

I'm using a provider point to point access for my metropolitan network.

Example :

Site A

Int gig 0/0.100

ip address

encap dot1q 100

mpls ip

Int gig 0/0.200

ip address

encap dot1q 200

mpls ip

Site B

Int gig 0/0.100

ip address

encap dot1q 100

mpls ip

Site C

Int gig 0/0.200

ip address

encap dot1q 200

mpls ip

Mean that Site A has a L2 connection with Site B (via VLAN 100) and Site C (via VLAN 200). I can't use other VLAN than those given me by the provider.

Ok, now, i want to extend a vlan (20 for example) from Site A to Site B. Can I do that with VC Type 4 ?

This is seems to be wired configurations for me, why do you enable mpls ip on your CE Dot1q sub-interfaces? The customer CE should never be MPLS aware in MPLS implantations like VPN/AToM/Metro.

Regarding other VLANs provided by ISP, simply ask your provider to provision the new VLAN between the desired branches.

It's not my CE configuration, it's my PE confs that I've given to you. It's a bit tricky because there is the provider MPLS network (that give us some L2 VPN) and my MPLS network on it (where i use L3 VPN but as i can see, it's impossible to add L2 VPN).
