Hello everyone!
I'm trying to configure xconnect l2tpv3 between c2811 and c888ea.
c2811 configuration:
pseudowire-class Tun1300
encapsulation l2tpv3
ip local interface loopback0
interface FastEthernet0/0.1300
encapsulation dot1q 1300
xconnect 10.10.10.2 1300 encapsulation l2tpv3 pw-class Tun1300
And the xconnect status is DN, S1 is UP and S2 is DN.
c888ea configuration is
pseudowire-class Tun1300
encapsulation l2tpv3
ip local interface vlan10
interface vlan 1300
no ip add
xconnect 10.10.10.1 1300 encapsulation l2tpv3 pw-class Tun1300
SVI 1300 status is UP.
SVI 10 is UP. It's a management vlan.
One of the physical interfaces has vlan 1300 as a part of the trunk. And it's UP.
But the status of the xconnect is DN, S1 is DN, S2 is DN.
The funny thing is that xconnect worked fine for the last year. But a day ago we had a power issue and after c888ea started up xconnect didn't work. I've checked the backup configuration and couldn't find any changes.
Any help, please.
Sorry for such configuration example, write from my phone.

Hi @extremal.v ,
Can you provide a "sh xconnect peer <peer-id> vcid 1300 detail" from both end.

Hi @extremal.v ,
I am not sure why the local AC is showing as down in the output you provided:
> ac Vl1300:1300(Eth VLAN) DN
You might want to check with TAC.

Everythinng worked out when I've changed some configuration.
pseudowire-class L2Tunnel1300
encapsulation l2tpv3
protocol none
ip local interface Vlan483
interface Vlan1300
no ip address
xconnect 10.10.10.1 1300 encapsulation l2tpv3 manual pw-class L2Tunnel1300
l2tp id 1300 1300
c888ea#sh xconnect all
Legend: XC ST=Xconnect State S1=Segment1 State S2=Segment2 State
UP=Up DN=Down AD=Admin Down IA=Inactive
SB=Standby HS=Hot Standby RV=Recovering NH=No Hardware
XC ST Segment 1 S1 Segment 2 S2
------+---------------------------------+--+---------------------------------+--
UP pri ac Vl1300:1300(Eth VLAN) UP l2tp 10.10.10.1:1300 UP
And the same from the other side. So the problem solved.
Thank you everyone!
