Pseudowire SAP Configuration

Prerequisites

The following prerequisites are required at the access PE:

  1. Configure an Epipe VLL service.

  2. Configure a NULL, 1q or q-in-q SAP on the Epipe service.

The following steps are used to configure a pseudowire SAP on the IES or VPRN service at the Layer 3 PE:

The PW SAP may be mated to an Ethernet SAP or an Ethernet Spoke-SDP in the Epipe VLL service. A PW SAP may also form a part of an Epipe service that contains a PBB tunnel, as shown in the following example.

configure service epipe 300 name "access-vc-100" customer 1 create
    pbb tunnel 30123 backbone-dest-mac 00-00-5e-00-53-01 isid 100
    sap lag-3:25.100 create
       no shutdown
         exit
     sap pw-8:10.20 create
        no shutdown
        exit

  1. Define a pseudowire port.
    pw-port 1 create
    exit
    pw-port 2 create
     exit
    

  2. Bind a physical port or LAG, in hybrid mode, with the pseudowire port.
    service customer 1 create
       multi-service-site ‟abc” create
         assignment port pw-1
         egress
          policer-control-policy ‟abc”
          exit
         exit description ‟Default customer”
        exit
      sdp 1 mpls create
       far-end 10.1.1.2
       ldp
       path-mtu 1514
       keep-alive
       shutdown
       exit
       binding
        port lag-1
        pw-port 1 vc-id 1 create
         no shutdown
         exit
        pw-port 2 vc-id 2 create
         no shutdown
         exit
      exit
    no shutdown
    exit
    

  3. Perform one of the following steps:

  4. For a PW SAP on an IES/VPRN, configure a SAP on the IES or VPRN interface, with a SAP ID that uses the form pw-id.
    ies 1 customer 1 create
     interface ‟ies if” create
     address 192.168.1.1/24
     mac 00:00:00:00:00:ff
      static-arp 192.168.1.2 00:00:00:00:00:aa
      sap pw-1:1 create
       exit
      exit
      no shutdown
       exit
    

  5. For a PW SAP on an Epipe VLL, configure a SAP on the service, with a SAP ID that uses the form pw-id.
    epipe 1 customer 1 create
       sap pw-1:1 create
        exit
       exit
       no shutdown
        exit
