Hi Meryem,

If you are referring to Circuit status vector in VPLS, this is a mandatory
sub-TLV within MP_REACH_NLRI.  If Huawei doesn't recognize it, it sounds
like they aren't conforming to the standard...  I honestly have no idea how
to turn this off :(  Perhaps someone else on-list might be able to shed some
light...
