Hi, Judging by discussions on various websites and maillists, there is a common opinion that if we have H-VPLS with ethernet edge generally it's a bad idea to propagate u-PE BPDUs across MPLS core.
Am I understanding correctly that main reason for not to tunnel BPDUs is spanning tree scalability issues ? E.g. even in case of RSTP/MSTP at some moment spanning tree convergence time will/may grow severely and there will be problem with network stability. Or maybe there are some other reasons for considering BPDUs tunneling harmful ? Anyway maybe some of you have expirience with BPDUs tunneling via VPLS ? Can your share your impressions about network stability then ? Actually the main question for me now sounds like "can BPDUs tunneling impcat network stability and is it depends on network size (number of POPs) ?". Your comments will be very much appreciated :) Thanks in advance. -- Andrey Elperin _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
