L3 capability within VPLS?

[Pete W]

It is possible within a Comware 7 environment to host a L3 gateway within a Kompella L2 VPLS network?

I have tried to make this work with a "vsi-interface" and "gateway" command (using GNS3 & H3C tools). Even though VPLS works fine, the IP address of the VSI-interface is only accessible by hosts attached to the vsi on the same switch.

If anyone knows that this should work (or not) then please comment.

Regards,

Pete

It would help to see a topology, but assuming your network is trunking both VLANs to the PE switch (where the labelling is applied) then it is on the PE switch interface facing your switch that a service-instance has to be configured for each VLAN.
