VPLS Setup Problem

blakeovich
Level 1
Level 1

Hi, I am trialling VPLS with BGP autodiscovery, using the configs supplied at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/mpls/configuration/guide/mp_vpls_auto_bgp.html

AND

http://www.cisco.com/application/pdf/en/us/guest/tech/tk891/c1482/ccmigration_09186a00801ed3ea.pdf

Using these templates, I am still unable to pass traffic between the endpoints.

Here is some show command output:

PE1_7604#sh mpls l2transport vc 24 det

Local interface: VFI VPLS-1 VFI up

MPLS VC type is VFI, interworking type is Ethernet

Destination address: 10.0.2.1, VC ID: 24, VC status: up

Output interface: none, imposed label stack {17}

Preferred path: not configured

Default path: active

Next hop: Invalid ADDR

Create time: 00:55:10, last status change time: 00:00:29

Signaling protocol: LDP, peer 10.0.2.1:0 up

Targeted Hello: 10.0.1.1(LDP Id) -> 10.0.2.1

MPLS VC labels: local 19, remote 17

AGI: type 1, len 8, 000A 4773 0000 0018

Local AII: type 1, len 4, 0A00 0101 (10.0.1.1)

Remote AII: type 1, len 4, 0A00 0201 (10.0.2.1)

Group ID: local n/a, remote n/a

MTU: local 1500, remote 1500

Remote interface description:

Sequencing: receive disabled, send disabled

VC statistics:

packet totals: receive 0, send 0

byte totals: receive 0, send 0

packet drops: receive 0, send 0

PE1_7604#sh mpls forwarding-table

Local Outgoing Prefix Bytes Label Outgoing Next Hop

Label Label or VC or Tunnel Id Switched interface

17 Pop Label 10.0.2.1/32 0 Gi2/48 172.16.1.2

18 No Label l2ckt(25) 0 none point2point

19 No Label l2ckt(24) 0 none point2point

As you can see, my outgoing interface is "None" and my next hop is "Invalid ADDR". I suspect this is the problem, but can't fix it.

Check if you have configured uplink port for VPLS as port-channel because VPLS is not supported when the uplink is port-channel. Following link may help you

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_2sr/12_2srb/feature/guide/fs_vpls.html#wp1069552

The uplink is not a port channel.

TAC have responded by saying that VPLS is only supported on the OSM-type interfaces?

We planed on using the uplink ports on our Sup720-3BXLs.

Blake,

VPLS does indeed require that the core facing interface is either part of a SIP, ES or OSM card.
