Good day,
I'm busy experimenting to transport pppoe over mpls/vpls
Now the issue i'm experiencing is we are using at least 2 microwave links to our main towers because the require from 600-1.2bgps.
As soon as MPLS is enabled between the two sites the traffic starts flowing only over 1 link.
Any way to get around this issue.
BGP based signaling maybe?
Re: MPLS/VPLS ECMP
You can make VPLS tunnel over each link and then add ECMP route to route over both tunnels.
Re: MPLS/VPLS ECMP
Thanks,You can make VPLS tunnel over each link and then add ECMP route to route over both tunnels.
I seem to ran into a different issue,
Only the first tunnel will establish.
I also tried manually specifying the transport address in LDP interface.

Re: MPLS/VPLS ECMP
You have the same MAC address on both interfaces.
It is probably not a good idea to use Winbox's Copy facility for this, which is what I assume you did to end up with it like that.

Re: MPLS/VPLS ECMP
Thanks, did not even realize.You have the same MAC address on both interfaces.

Did create new interfaces now but still the same behavior
Re: MPLS/VPLS ECMP
Let's see the config. then.
Are you sure the problem isn't at the other end of the link?

Re: MPLS/VPLS ECMP
You cannot do this setup with LDP signaled VPLS (only one VPLS will be active), here is the example with BGP signaled VPLS:

Only issue now is it creates dynamic interface, if one BGP drops and reconnects the interface name changes, but i will try and figure it out
Re: MPLS/VPLS ECMP
Two options,
* script that checks if dynamic interface was changed;
* use bridge per dynamic interface and in static configuration work with bridge interface.
