Chapter 1 Getting Started Configuring the Network to Support Layer 2 Services Configuring the Network to Support Layer 2 Services In addition to basic network configuration required for ISC, you must perform the following network configuration steps to support Layer 2 services. Information on doing these steps is not provided in the ISC documentation. See the documentation for your devices for information on how to perform these steps. 1. Enable MPLS on the core-facing interfaces of th

Chapter 1 Getting Started Setting Up Basic ISC Services Setting Up the N-PE Loopback Address Within ISC, you must set the loopback address on the N-PE device(s). For details about this procedure, see Setting the Loopback Addresses on N-PE Devices, page 2-2. Setting Up ISC Resources for L2VPN and VPLS Services Some ISC resources, such as access domains, VLAN pools, and VC pools are set up to support ISC L2VPN and VPLS services only. Perform the following steps to set up these resources.
