Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Chapter: L2VPN Protocol-Based CLIs

L2VPN Protocol-Based CLIs

The L2VPN Protocol-Based CLIs feature provides a set of processes and an improved infrastructure for developing and delivering Cisco IOS software on various Cisco platforms. This feature introduces new commands and modifies or replaces existing commands to achieve a consistent functionality across Cisco platforms and provide cross-Operating System (OS) support.

Configuration information on L2VPN Protocol-Based CLI can be found in the MPLS: Layer 2 Configuration Guide: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios-xml/ios/mp_l2_vpns/configuration/xe-3s/l2vpn-prot-based.html

L2VPN Protocol-Based CLI Changes:

The following commands have been modified on the ME3600, ME3800 and ME3600X-24CX switches in Cisco IOS Release 15.3(2)S:

pseudowire-class name

bridge-domain vlan vlan id

The table below lists the legacy commands that will be replaced in future releases. From Cisco IOS Release 15.3(2)S both new and legacy commands will coexist until the legacy commands are deprecated in future releases

 

Table 1-1 Replacement Commands Introduced in Cisco IOS Release 15.3(2)S
Legacy Command
Replacement Command Introduced in Cisco IOS Release 15.3(2)S

pseudowire-class pw name

template type pseudowire pw name

bridge-domain vlan vlan id

bridge-domain vlan id

CLI Comparison Examples

The following examples provide a comparison between two L2VPN configurations using existing (legacy) CLIs and the protocol-based CLIs introduced by the L2VPN Protocol-Based CLIs feature.

Legacy

pseudowire-class PW1
encapsulation mpls
!
l2 vfi foo
vpn id 100
bridge-domain vlan 100
neighbor 10.0.0.1 pw-class PW1
neighbor 10.0.0.2 pw-class PW1

The following example displays the L2VPN configuration of the Cisco ME3600X-1 switch:

!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
switchport trunk allowed vlan none
switchport mode trunk
service instance 2001 ethernet
encapsulation dot1q 2001
exit
 
interface GigabitEthernet0/2
no switchport
ip address 192.168.4.1 255.255.255.0
mpls ip
mpls label protocol ldp
 
!
bridge-domain 2001
member GigabitEthernet0/1 service-instance 2001
 
l2vpn vfi context 2001
vpn id 2001
member 2.2.2.2 encapsulation mpls
 
interface Vlan2001
no ip address
member vfi 2001
!
router ospf 100
network 1.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 area 0
network 192.168.4.1 0.0.0.0 area 0
 
interface Loopback0
ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255
end
 

The following show command displays the status of the L2VPN configuration:

ME3600X-1# show mpls l2transport vc
 
Local intf Local circuit Dest address VC ID Status
------------- -------------------------- --------------- ---------- ----------
VFI 2001 vfi 2.2.2.2 2001 UP
 
 

The following example displays the L2VPN configuration of the Cisco ME3600X-2 switch:

interface GigabitEthernet0/2
no switchport
ip address 192.168.4.2 255.255.255.0
mpls ip
