  • 1.  Basic Vpls on srx not working

    Posted 04-04-2014 22:33
    Hello,
    Can I connect srx port with dhcp enabled to PE router and extend that dhcp to another site using vpls?? The LAN gateway is on RVI (vlan.0) interface and not directly on the port connecting to the PE. Is there anything to change on the SRX for vpls to extend the LAN ?
    Thanks.

    You indicate that VPLS is not working. Can you post the configuration and a ossible network layout?

    hello,

    this are the configs on the srx side:

     

    root# show interfaces ge-0/0/5
    encapsulation flexible-ethernet-services;
    unit 0 {
    family ethernet-switching {
    vlan {
    members vlan-trust;

     

    root# show vlans
    vlan-trust {
    vlan-id 506;
    l3-interface vlan.0;
    }

     

     

    root# show system services dhcp
    router {
    192.168.26.1;
    }
    pool 192.168.26.0/24 {
    address-range low 192.168.26.20 high 192.168.26.220;
    }
    propagate-settings ge-0/0/0.0;

     

     

    on the PE router where the vpls is defined:

     


    [edit interfaces ge-1/1/5]
    lish@PE-1-SP-NBO-KE-re0# show
    vlan-tagging;
    encapsulation flexible-ethernet-services;
    gigether-options {
    auto-negotiation;
    }
    unit 506 {
    encapsulation vlan-vpls;
    vlan-id 506;
    family vpls;

     

     

    [edit routing-instances soliton_lan_extension]
    lish@PE-1-SP-NBO-KE-re0# show
    instance-type vpls;
    vlan-id 506;
    interface ge-1/1/5.506;
    route-distinguisher 37305:506;
    vrf-target target:37305:506;
    protocols {
    vpls {
    no-tunnel-services;
    site SOLITON {
    site-identifier 1;
    interface ge-1/1/5.506;
    }
    }
    }

    Hi,
    Managed at long last. I just tagged the srx port going to the MX and the vpls picked all the MAC addresses behind the srx. Now my LAN is extended to the other end and guys can work as if they are in the same physical office . Thank you lyndidon and every else for your efforts and help.

    Sheeel.
