Hi Guys,
The company I work for are currently tendering out there network management support to a third party. There are two external companies left in the running. We currently have 4 core HP H3C S7510E switches that are running VPLS. One of the external companies wants to upgrade our core switches to the latest HP core switches (cannot remember model) but the other company wants to migrate all our core switches to Cisco 9000 switches (I am a cisco guy by the way).
I would prefer the second company but we would need to migrate 1 core switch at a time. My question is, is VPLS compatible between HP and Cisco switches. A configuration of VPLS similar to our switch is posted below:
mpls lsr-id 10.1.1.1
mpls
lsp-trigger all
#
l2vpn
mpls l2vpn
#
mpls ldp
#
mpls ldp remote-peer 1
remote-ip 10.1.1.2
#
mpls ldp remote-peer 2
remote-ip 10.1.1.3
#
mpls ldp remote-peer 3
remote-ip 10.1.14
#
#
vsi Cool static
pwsignal ldp
vsi-id 300
peer 10.1.1.2
peer 10.1.1.3
peer 110.1.1.4
#
vsi Bag static
pwsignal ldp
vsi-id 2000
peer 10.1.1.2
peer 10.1.1.3
peer 10.1.1.4
#
interface Vlan-interface2053
description OSPF Link to remote peer 1
ip address x.x.x.x y.y.y.y
ospf cost 5
ospf network-type p2p
mpls
mpls ldp
Can you guys also help me out with what the configuration may be if I was to configure something similar on a Cisco 9000 switch? I have done some research and think it is possible, but I want a second opinion just to be sure.
