ArgumentTypeDescription
namestringName of the interface.
mtunumLayer 3 Maximum Transmission Unit.
mac-addressmacAddrStatic MAC address of the interface. Automatically generated when not set.
arpenum (disabled | enabled | proxy-arp | reply-only | local-proxy-arp)Address Resolution Protocol.
arp-timeoutalt { arp-timeout: enum (auto) { auto:0 } , arp-timeout: time }Time until an ARP entry expires. Set to auto to use the interface-type default value.
disable-running-checkboolSpecifies whether to detect if an interface is running. If set to no, the interface will always have the running flag.
peer ( mandatory )address (flags=46v)The IP address of the remote peer (RFC 4762 Section 3.1).
vpls-id ( unset )address (flags=R)A unique number that identifies the VPLS tunnel. Encoding is a 2byte+4byte or 4byte+2byte number (RFC 4762 Section 3.2).
cisco-static-id ( unset )numCisco-style VPLS tunnel ID (RFC 4447 FEC type 0x80).
pw-type ( unset )enum (tagged-ethernet | raw-ethernet | vpls)Pseudowire type (RFC 4447 Section 5.2). By default, raw-ethernet is used.
pw-l2mtu ( unset )numL2MTU value advertised to a remote peer (RFC 4447 Section 5.2).
pw-control-word ( unset )enum (default | enabled | disabled)Enables or disables Control Word usage (RFC 4623 Section 4). Default values for regular and Cisco-style VPLS tunnels differ. Cisco-style by default has Control Word usage disabled. Read more in the VPLS Control Word article.
bridge ( unset )iface_enumBridge the VPLS interface belongs to.
bridge-cost ( unset )numCost of the bridge port.
bridge-horizon ( unset )numWhen set to none, bridge horizon is not used.
bridge-pvid ( unset )numPort VLAN ID (pvid) assigned to a dynamically bridged interface. Applies only when bridge vlan-filtering is set to yes.
Read-only ArgumentTypeDescription
bgp-vplsenumName of the BGP VPLS instance used to create a dynamic VPLS interface (RFC 4761 Section 3.2).
bgp-vpls-prfxstringPrefix of the BGP VPLS instance used to create a dynamic VPLS interface (RFC 4761 Section 3.2).
