I have two CAT6506-Es, and want to extend Vlan 624 over MPLS from one to the other:
router1:
l2 vfi VPLS manual
vpn id 624
neighbor 10.0.0.3 encapsulation mpls
interface Vlan624
ip address 100.64.1.1 255.255.255.0
xconnect vfi VPLS
router 2:
l2 vfi VPLS manual
vpn id 624
neighbor 10.0.0.4 encapsulation mpls
interface Vlan624
ip address 100.64.1.2 255.255.255.0
xconnect vfi VPLS
xconnect is up and we are getting the lables across:
router1:
#sh xconnect all

And pseudowire pinging fine:
router1:
#ping mpls pseudowire 10.0.0.3 624
Sending 5, 100-byte MPLS Echos to 10.0.0.3,
timeout is 2 seconds, send interval is 0 msec:
Codes: '!' - success, 'Q' - request not sent, '.' - timeout,
'L' - labeled output interface, 'B' - unlabeled output interface,
'D' - DS Map mismatch, 'F' - no FEC mapping, 'f' - FEC mismatch,
'M' - malformed request, 'm' - unsupported tlvs, 'N' - no label entry,
'P' - no rx intf label prot, 'p' - premature termination of LSP,
'R' - transit router, 'I' - unknown upstream index,
'X' - unknown return code, 'x' - return code 0
Type escape sequence to abort.
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 4/4/4 ms
But I am unable to get packets across:
router1:
#ping 100.64.1.2 source 100.64.1.1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 100.64.1.2, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 100.64.1.1
.....
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)
#sh arp | i 100.64.1.2
Internet 100.64.1.2 0 Incomplete ARPA
Also - there is a bunch of dynamically learned MAC addresses in vlan 624 on router 1 - I do not see these in the mac address table of router 2.
What is concerning here is the
imposed label stack {}
there is no P router in-between these two routers, so the label get's popped for the neighbour:
#sh mpls forwarding-table 10.0.0.3
Local Outgoing Prefix Bytes Label Outgoing Next Hop
Label Label or Tunnel Id Switched interface
33 Pop Label 10.0.0.3/32 0 Vl113 172.16.0.117
but I expected to see at least the VC ID label to be imposed...
Running 12.2(33)SXI5 on both. Am I missing something?
