[j-nsp] VPLS with 2 interfaces on the same router

There was a discussion on this forum with the above subject concluding the
below point.

*The value of "site-identifier" must be equal or less then the value
of " site-range". With your current configuration if you configure this
VPLS service on another router the traffic won't be forwarded over the
MPLS cloud.
*
But as per Juniper document, the site range specifies the total number of
sites in the VPLS.  If this is the total number of sites, why should it be
greatere than the site id?

Assume we have 10 PEs in a instance. We will configure site range as 10 in
all the PEs.
The site id of individual PEs can be in any range. Could be 50-60,
60-70.....
I am not able to get the dependencies between these two configuration. Had
never come across in Juniper document also such a dependancy. Could you
please explain the reason behind this condition specified in your mail?

TIA,
Monika
