Wouldn't I need an attachment circuit in order for the l2vpn to come up, or are you saying that a successful ping mpls l2vpn is independent of the state of the attachment circuit?

I hadn't considered that, but good to know for next time when I have a box with a few spare ports.

Is there any way to stick a subnet on to an l2circuit directly instead of having to use a physical interface and a physical CE?
