Routing

Hi,

I am trying to configure VPLS pseudowires with dynamic profiles as explained in the following Juniper guide:

http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos12.1/information-products/topic-collections/nce/vpls-dynamic-profile-configuring/vpls-dynamic-profile-configuring.pdf

My issue is that I don't have the keyword access-profile.

# set routing-instances VS protocols vpls neighbor 10.3.0.2 ?  
Possible completions:
  <[Enter]>            Execute this command
+ apply-groups         Groups from which to inherit configuration data
+ apply-groups-except  Don't inherit configuration data from these groups
> backup-neighbor      Configuration of redundant l2circuit
  community            Community associated with this neighbor
  connection-protection  End-2-end protection via OAM failure detection
  encapsulation-type   Encapsulation type for VPN
  ignore-encapsulation-mismatch  Allow different encapsulation types on local and remote end
> oam                  OAM Configuration for VPN
  pseudowire-status-tlv  Send pseudowire status TLV
  psn-tunnel-endpoint  Endpoint of the transport tunnel on the remote PE
  revert-time          Enable pseudowire redundancy reversion (seconds) (0..600 seconds)
> static               Configuration of static vpls
  switchover-delay     Pseudowire switchover delay  (0..180000 milliseconds)
  |                    Pipe through a command

Does anybody here knows some restriction which might prevent me from using that keyword?

My test platform:

Model: mx960
Junos: 13.3R1.8

Hello,

Looks like a bug to me because "associate-profile" knob is there in JUNOS 12.3R7 :

Please open a JTAC case.

It turned out I was using logical-systems for my tests and dynamic profiles are apparently not available in a logical system.

Testing outside a logical system fixed my problem.
