Load Sharing VPLS end

[Julian_Eble]

Hello Community,

I'm having headache about the load-balance on Aggreation Ports.

Our scenery is a MPLS network who the end point are connected by Juniper Routers.
These connections are 10G (20g agg) and have one VLAN VPLS tagged end-by-end.
The traffic doesn't get balanced even when I change the hash-algorithm and the balance type.

Is there any problem using VPLS and LACP?
Extreme introduced the load-sharing VPLS but I think that useful just for the trunk LACP/MPLS, isn't?

Thanks,
Julian Eble

Hi, Henrique,

Sorry, no progress so far. I hope we will get X670-G2 in our lab so I will be able to test some ideas.

BTW, could you please (or anyone from Extreme Networks) look up Broadcom Programmer's Reference Guide for Trident II (II+). I would like to know what packet fields are used in RTAG7 hash on VPLS/MPLS tunnel end.

Hi Anatoly,

Did you get any progress on this issue?

Hi welisson!

Direction of traffic - both; PE01 <--> PE02

[welisson]

Why don't you split this link and run TE over them?

What is your direction of traffic?
For instance PE01-->PE02 or opposite
