Hi Oliver, Question is very specific to issue in ethernet connection between R1 and laptop and comparing recovery time under this failure in VPLS, L3MPLS VPN and pure L3 routing. That is, how VPLS will influence the recovery of the MAC address on R1 (delay introduced by VPLS).

There is no alternate path between client and server here? In general, convergence times depend on several variables.. sub-10-sec is a ballpark figure you can use, but it can also take longer (when BGP is involved) or quicker.. oli _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
