[j-nsp] MX VPLS Trunk with VLAN rewriting

[Humair Ali]

Hi

thanks for your feedback,

just to clarify , you want to use specific unit for specific vpls instance ?

if you need specfic range of vlan per unit for multiple VPLS instance
,can you try the following below,  this is not what we have in
production ,  but it should work, or work around it

set interfaces xe-1/1/0 flexible-ethernet-services
set interfaces xe-1/1/0 unit 10 encapsulation vlan-bridge
set interfaces xe-1/1/0 unit 10 family bridge interface-mode trunk
set interfaces xe-1/1/0 unit 10 family bridge vlan-id-list 100-500

set interfaces xe-1/1/0 unit 20 encapsulation vlan-bridge
set interfaces xe-1/1/0 unit 20 family bridge interface-mode trunk
set interfaces xe-1/1/0 unit 20 family bridge vlan-id-list 540-4094

then you can apply xe-1/1/0.10 to vpls-instance A  and xe-1/1/0.20 to
vpls instance B

let me know if it works , i would be interested to know

thanks
