Configuring VPLS spoke-SDPs with split horizon

Note:

Split Horizon group with spoke-SDPs is only supported on the 7210 SAS-K 2F6C4T and 7210 SAS-K 3SFP+ 8C.

To configure spoke-SDPs with a split horizon group, add the split-horizon-group parameter when creating the spoke-SDP. Traffic arriving on a SAP or spoke-SDP within a split horizon group will not be copied to other SAPs or spoke-SDPs in the same split horizon group.

The following is a sample VPLS configuration output with split horizon enabled.
