[j-nsp] MX VPLS Trunk with VLAN rewriting

[Sebastian Wiesinger]

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a VLPS "Trunk" (many VLANs - one VPLS instance) on
MX960 (Trio MPC) where each site has different local VLAN-IDs which
should be bridged over VPLS.

Example:

      Site 1  ---- VPLS ----  Site 2
LAN1: vl100       vl10        vl200
LAN2: vl301       vl11        vl201


I did the following config:

Site1:
interfaces {
  ae2 {
    unit 100 {
      encapsulation vlan-vpls;
      vlan-id 100;
      input-vlan-map {
          swap;
          vlan-id 10;
      }
      output-vlan-map swap;
  }
    unit 301 {
      encapsulation vlan-vpls;
      vlan-id 301;
      input-vlan-map {
          swap;
          vlan-id 11;
      }
      output-vlan-map swap;
  }
}

routing-instances {
  test-service {
      instance-type vpls;
      vlan-id all;
      interface ae2.100;
      interface ae2.301;
      vrf-target target:65000:10003;
      protocols {
          vpls {
              no-tunnel-services;
              site local-ce {
                  site-identifier 1;
                  interface ae2.100;
                  interface ae2.301;
              }
              mac-flush {
                  any-interface;
              }
          }
      }
  }
}


Site2:

interfaces {
  ae2 {
    unit 200 {
      encapsulation vlan-vpls;
      vlan-id 200;
      input-vlan-map {
          swap;
          vlan-id 10;
      }
      output-vlan-map swap;
  }
    unit 201 {
      encapsulation vlan-vpls;
      vlan-id 201;
      input-vlan-map {
          swap;
          vlan-id 11;
      }
      output-vlan-map swap;
  }
}

routing-instances {
  test-service {
      instance-type vpls;
      vlan-id all;
      interface ae2.200;
      interface ae2.201;
      vrf-target target:65000:10003;
      protocols {
          vpls {
              no-tunnel-services;
              site local-ce {
                  site-identifier 2;
                  interface ae2.200;
                  interface ae2.201;
              }
              mac-flush {
                  any-interface;
              }
          }
      }
  }
}


When I try to commit this config I get an error:

[edit routing-instances test-service interface]
  'ae2.100'
    interface with input/output vlan-maps cannot be added to a routing-instance with a vlan-id/vlan-tags configured

JunOS version is 11.2R4

When I remove "vlan-id all" from the VPLS instance the config commits
but no bridge is formed, the clients on each site cannot reach each
other.

Any idea what to do? Our Juniper consultant said it would be possible
to do this.

Regards

Sebastian
