VPLS traffic destined to one particular vlan under a VPLS instance, can be duplicated to all other vlans and on different interfaces, on the same vpls instance. This behaviour was found only in DPC cards. When tested on MPC cards the traffic destined for one particular vlan was not duplicated to other vlans This is an expected behaior for a BUM traffic (Broadcast, … [Read more...]
Hash key computation on MPC cards
The article provides information on how the hash key is computed on MPC cards, the default parameters being used to compute the hash, and the various options, which are available under the forwarding-options>enhanced-hash-key hierarchy to influence the hashing results. Information on how the hash key is computed on MPC cards, the default parameters being used to compute … [Read more...]
