Abstract:
Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) is a Layer 2 Virtual Private
Network (VPN) that gives its customers the appearance that their
sites are connected via a Local Area Network (LAN). It is often
required for the Service Provider (SP) to give the customer redundant
connectivity to some sites, often called "multi-homing". This memo
shows how BGP-based multi-homing can be offered in the context of LDP
and BGP VPLS solutions. This document updates RFC 4761 by defining
new flags in the Control Flags field of the Layer2 Info Extended
Community.
