I am trying to do local connect on an ASR920 running latest IOS

interface Gi0/0/20
 service instance 10 ethernet
  encapsulation dot1q 10
  rewrite ingress tag pop 1 symmetric
interface Gi0/0/21
 service instance 20 ethernet
  encapsulation dot1q 20
  rewrite ingress tag pop 1 symmetric
connect TEST Gi0/0/20 10 Gi0/0/21 20
One of the vlan interfaces is unable to perform vlan rewrite
%CONN: invalid segment 1
%CONN: Invalid Command

I am also trying to use the l2vpn syntax, configuration is set but with an error log and no traffic flows

l2vpn xconnect context TEST
 member Gi0/0/20 service-instance 10
 member Gi0/0/21 service-instance 20
%FMFP-3-OBJ_DWNLD_TO_CPP_FAILED: SIP0: fman_fp_image:  atom_xconnect xid 0x10, ifh 16, dirty 0x1, state 0x2 download to CPP failed

I also tried simple connect of physical interfaces :

interface GigabitEthernet0/0/9
 no ip address
 negotiation auto
interface GigabitEthernet0/0/10
 no ip address
 negotiation auto
connect TEST GigabitEthernet0/0/9 GigabitEthernet0/0/10
%FMFP-3-OBJ_DWNLD_TO_CPP_FAILED: F0: fman_fp_image:  atom_xconnect xid 0x10, ifh 16, dirty 0x1, state 0x2 download to CPP failed

So I wonder if ASR920 does not support local connect or if I am doing something wrong ?

Hello,

I think you are not meeting the minimum requirements to run local connect on ASR920. the evc local connect support is supposed to be from 15.6(2)S release which i dont think is the case here.

Also, i think you will need ASR920 with RSP2. Could you please verify the show inventory to see if you are having RSP2.

Thanks

Vinit

i guess i mis-interpreted. RSP2 is seperate. ASR920 has a diff architecture than ASR903.

Thanks

I think the support for local connect on ASR920 starts with 15.6(2)S release. thus it should not work before that release.

Thanks,

Hello Vinit,

latest download is asr920-universalk9_npe.03.16.00.S.155-3.S-ext.bin

15.6(2)S is not yet available ?

Regards

Cédric

Vinit Jain · ‎11-01-2015

Hello Cédric

yes, thats what i understood based on my research internally.

I will check further and let you know if its supported or not.

Thanks

Vinit

Thanks

Vinit Jain · ‎11-01-2015

Hello Cédric

It is confirmed that evc local connect will be supported from XE release 3.18 . the version you are running is XE 3.16. Since 3.18 is not released yet, you will have to wait for sometime to use this feature.

Thanks

Vinit

PS: Please mark the question as answered if your query has been answered.

Hello Cédric

Could you please share the requirements for doing a local connect on ASR920.

i can check if we can find an alternate solution to your problem.

Thanks

I have several needs :

- connect two physical ports (as a media converter) for a customer

- connect physical port to service instance on another port

- connect a service instance to another service instance (vlan rewrite) between two ports or same port.

I can do all of this with bridge-domains but this is not completely transparent : uses mac addess tcam, needs l2protocol tunnel.

Thank you

Cédric
