[j-nsp] VPLS LM Status?

[Marlon Duksa]

It works. Thanks.
Can you please elaborate a bit more  what do you mean by local mesh-groups?
I tried to forward learned traffic as well as flooded from interfaces
between local sites and interfaces within local sites...traffic was flowing
in any case.
Are those mesh groups supposed to supress some traffic? Not quite sure what
is the purpose of multiple local sites? If I have many interfaces in a
single site, wouldn't that work as well?
Thanks,
marlon
