Title : VPLS Interoperability with CE Bridges
Author(s) : D. Mohan, A. Sajassi
Filename : draft-ietf-l2vpn-vpls-bridge-interop-03.txt
Pages : 19

One of the main motivations behind VPLS is its ability to provide
connectivity not only among customer routers and servers/hosts but
also among customer bridges. VPLS is expected to deliver the same
level of service that current enterprise users are accustomed to
from their own enterprise bridged networks today or the same level
of service that they receive from their Ethernet Service Providers
using IEEE bridged networks.
When CE devices are IEEE bridges, then there are certain issues and
challenges that need to be accounted for in a VPLS network. The
majority of these issues have currently been addressed in the IEEE
802.1ad standard for provider bridges and they need to be addressed
for VPLS networks. This draft discusses these issues and wherever
possible suggests areas to be explored in rectifying these issues.
