VPLS Advanced Topologies
Hub and Spoke VPLS
Hub and Spoke VPLS instead of full mesh
Use no-local-switching to prevent VPLS local switching when two spoke CEs are connected to the same PE
set routing-instances <name> no-local-switching
By default, a BGP VPLS can host 65,534 sites
we can configure a site-range but not that useful!
LDP VPLS
Hierarchical VPLS
On the wire, LDP VPLS and LDP L2Circuit signaling is identical.
If we configure spokes as L2Circuit, and hub as VPLS, it works!
BGP VPLS Multihoming
bgp.vpls.0
<name>.vpls.0
there is no .l2id.0 table in VPLS unlike L2VPN
Same philosophy as L2VPN multihoming
VPLS Multihoming
