Hi, I am trying to configure IRB/BVI feature and see if it works. I am doing the configuration as per the instructions given in ‘https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/Command-line_Interface_(CLI)_Guide#IRB.2FBVI’.
Instead of configuring a route as per the link, I am configuring an IP address on BVI interface. And I am configuring a sub-interface with vlan-id 50 and attaching it to the same bridge-domain. I am doing the similar configuration on the other box and trying to ping. But the ARP REQ packets are getting dropped saying that the ‘Interface is not IP enabled’. I see that the sub-interface is not in L3 mode since it is attached to the bridge. But since the bridge is ‘flood’ enabled, I expect the ARP REQ should get flooded and the loop-back interface should respond. And I also see that there is no command similar to ‘bridge <no> route ip’ to enable routing and bridging. Please let me know that attaching sub-interface to the bridge for IRB is supported. And also please let me know if I am missing anything. Thanks, Leela sankar
