Abstract:
In reference and response to draft-boldy-l2vpn-vplsloop-req-01,
this document describes a solution in the form of a protocol
function named VPLS External Loop Protection Mechanism (VLPM).
VLPM is a protocol for a service provider to deploy at the PE to
detect layer-2 loops in any external layer-2 segments (customer LAN)
where customer deployed loop prevention methods may have failed.
After detection of such a loop it facilitates configurable actions
to protect the rest of the VPLS Domain from being affected without
the need for inter-operation with customer network protocols, other
VPLS PEs or sites.
