Suppose multiple sites end up using the same Site-id (VE-id) but
participate in different VPLSs(differnent RTs) then RD will help
distinguishing the layer-2 bgp-nlri for the layer2-routes for these
sites. Isn't it?
Else (if RD is same or non-existent), advertisement for one site will
mask the othe
Thanks for the reply.
As per section 3.1.2, Route target only identifies the VPLS.
Even in Juniper, if I have a configuration like this,
root# show routing-instances
vplsinst2 {
instance-type vpls;
route-distinguisher 100:4;
vrf-target {
import target:100:3;

Hi Monika,
I haven't played around much with VPLS but a quick read of RFC 4761
reveals the following...
Section 3.5 of RFC 4761 appears to be the key. It refers to
multihoming mechanisms for VPLS and states the following...

Thanks for your replies
I think there was a confusion in my query.
My question was to understand why Route distinguisher is proposed in VPLS
NLRI? What is the use of sending RD in the NLRI?
With MP-BGP, there are two extensions for VPN application.
1 - L3VPN (RFC 4364) and L2 VPN (RFC 4761) both o

Hi Monika,
You can check with RFC 4761. Generally, NLRI for VPLS format is as
following:
++
| Length (2 octets)|
++
| Route Distinguisher (8 octets)|
+-
Hi,
In L3VPN, The purpose of the Route Distinguisher is solely to
allow one to create distinct routes to a common IPv4 address prefix.
But why do we need Route distinguisher for VPLS?
Was this added to VPLS to be consistent with L3VPN?
