xconnect on SVI interface ES Cards on 7606

Atif Siddiqui · ‎08-19-2009

Is it possible to configure xconnect from an SVI interface, when your core facing cards are RSP-720?

I have configured it:

interface Vlan290

no ip address

xconnect 10.10.136.129 37123712 encapsulation mpls

end

It does not come up:

PE4#sh mpl l2transport vc

Local intf Local circuit Dest address VC ID Status

------------- -------------------------- --------------- ---------- ----------

Vl290 Eth VLAN 290 10.10.136.129 37123712 DOWN

PE4#sh mpl l2transport vc 37123712 det

PE4#sh mpl l2transport vc 37123712 detail

Local interface: Vl290 up, line protocol up, Eth VLAN 290 up

Interworking type is Ethernet

Destination address: 10.10.136.129, VC ID: 37123712, VC status: down

Output interface: none, imposed label stack {}

Default path: no route

No adjacency

Last remote LDP TLV status rcvd: not sent

MPLS VC labels: local unassigned, remote 340

Group ID: local unknown, remote 0

MTU: local unknown, remote 1500

Remote interface description: ** Test PW with PE4 ES SVI int **

Sequencing: receive disabled, send disabled

VC statistics:

packet totals: receive 0, send 0

byte totals: receive 0, send 0

packet drops: receive 0, seq error 0, send 0

Although when I use a physical interface it comes up?

RSp720 does not support it??

I moved my core facing link to ES card instead of RSP 720 and it works.

PE4#sh mpls l2transport vc

Local intf Local circuit Dest address VC ID Status

------------- -------------------------- --------------- ---------- ----------

Vl290 Eth VLAN 290 10.10.136.129 37123712 UP

but now i am thinking what we can use the RSP-720 gige ports for.

Hello Atif,

I had that same doubt that ES card has to have the core facing interface.

management :)

Hope to help

Also in QoS RSP720 does not support prirotity queueing for real time traffic... not sure why we don't have all this in this latest SUP for 7600.
