Configuring multicast VPLS Registration

Use the following CLI syntax to configure Multicast VPLS Registration (MVR). The first step is to register a VPLS as a multicast VPLS.

CLI syntax:

config>service# vpls service-id 
    igmp-snooping
        mvr
            no shutdown
            description description
            group-policy policy-name

Example:

config>service# vpls 1000 
    config>service>vpls# igmp-snooping
    config>service>vpls>snooping# mvr
    config>service>vpls>snooping>mvr# no shutdown
    config>service>vpls>snooping>mvr# description "MVR VPLS"
    config>service>vpls>snooping>mvr# group-policy ‟basic_channels_policy"

The second step is to configure a SAP to take the multicast channels from the registered multicast VPLS.

CLI syntax:

config>service# vpls service-id 
    sap sap-id
        igmp-snooping
            mvr
                from-vpls vpls-id 

Example:

config>service# vpls 1 
    config>service>vpls# sap 1/1/1:100
    config>service>vpls>sap# igmp-snooping
    config>service>vpls>snooping# mvr
    config>service>vpls>snooping>mvr# from-vpls 1000

For MVR by proxy, the destination SAP for the multicast channels should a;sp be configured.

CLI syntax:

config>service# vpls service-id 
    sap sap-id
        igmp-snooping
            mvr
                from-vpls vpls-id 
                to-sap sap-id 

Example:

config>service# vpls 1 
    config>service>vpls# sap 1/1/1:100
    config>service>vpls>sap# igmp-snooping
    config>service>vpls>snooping# mvr
    config>service>vpls>snooping>mvr# from-vpls 1000
    config>service>vpls>snooping>mvr# to-sap 1/1/1:200
