Thanks for the response.
In this case, should I configure the BGP peer address (for l2vpn signaling)
also as loopback address?
(Since tunnel LSP association will be based on the BGP discovered peer
address. Not sure whether tunnel LSP will be searched for the nexthop field
in the L2VPN NLRI or BGP identifier in the packet.

Regards,
Monika
