Distributed VPLS is supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document, except those operating in access-uplink mode.
To configure a distributed VPLS service, you must configure service entities on originating and far-end nodes. You must use the same service ID on all ends (for example, create a VPLS service ID 9000 on ALA-1, ALA-2, and ALA-3). A distributed VPLS consists of a SAP on each participating node and an SDP bound to each participating node.
For SDP configuration information, see Configuring an SDP. For SDP binding information, see Configuring SDP bindings.
The following is a sample configuration output of VPLS SAPs configured for ALA-1, ALA-2, and ALA-3.
