Configuring VPLS SAPs with per service split horizon

Note:

Per-service split horizon groups are supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document, except those operating in access-uplink mode.

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

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