The use of BGP AD on the network side, or in the backbone, does not affect the different resiliency schemes Nokia has developed in the access network. This means that both Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation (MC-LAG) and Management-VPLS (M-VPLS) can still be used.
BGP AD may coexist with Hierarchical-VPLS (H-VPLS) resiliency schemes (for example, dual-homed MTUs devices to different PE-rs nodes) using existing methods (M-VPLS and statically configured active/standby pseudowire endpoint).
If provisioned SDPs are used by BGP AD, M-VPLS may be employed to provide loop avoidance. However, it is currently not possible to auto-discover active/standby pseudowires and to instantiate the related endpoint.
