Virtual Private LAN Service
 End-to-end architecture that allows MPLS networks to
provide Multipoint Ethernet services
 It is “Virtual” because multiple instances of this service
share the same physical infrastructure
 It is “Private” because each instance of the service is
independent and isolated from one another
 It is “LAN Service” because it emulates Layer 2
multipoint connectivity between subscribers
TECNOLOGÍAS DE RED AVANZADAS – Master IC 2009-2010
Why Provide A Layer 2 Service?
 Customer have full operational control over their
routing neighbours
 Privacy of addressing space - they do not have to be
shared with the carrier network
 Customer has a choice of using any routing protocol
including non IP based (IPX, AppleTalk)
 Customers could use an Ethernet switch instead of a
router as the CPE
 A single connection could reach all other edge points
emulating an Ethernet LAN (VPLS)

Etherchannel Concepts
An Etherchannel combines multiple physical links into a single logical link. Ideal for load
sharing or link redundancy – can be used by both layer 2 and Layer 3 subsystems…
Physical View
Multiple ports are
defined as being
part of an
Etherchannel
group
Logical View
Subsystems running
on the switch only
see one logical link

An Etherchannel can be defined on Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet or 10 Gigabit

Etherchannel Concepts
Multichassis EtherChannel (MEC)
Prior to Virtual Switch, Etherchannels were restricted to reside within the same physical
switch. In a Virtual Switch environment, the 2 physical switches form a single logical network
entity - therefore Etherchannels can now also be extended across the 2 physical chassis…

Regular Etherchannel on single chassis

Resilient Ethernet
 How does a workstation get a default gateway?
 DHCP: gives the workstation the default gateway
 IRDP (ICMP Router Discovery Protocol): extension to ICMP that
allows an end-station to automatically discover a default
gateway. RPs (Route Processors) periodically generate special
multicast packets that announce the router’s existence to the
clients every 5 to 10 minutes. Multicast packet has the RP’s
address and a life-time value. Could take up to 30 minutes.
 Proxy ARP: host dynamically discovers default IP address and
MAC of the default gateway. When default gateway fails, traffic
is dropped. After a lengthy period of time, host will re-perform
the Proxy ARP, but in most situations, host will continue using
same failed default gateway.
 What happens to the workstation when router fails?
 Host can’t communicate with other networks

HSRP Group
 A group of 2 or more RPs
that represent a single
default gateway. It has a
virtual IP address and a
virtual MAC address. If
the primary RP fails,
another RP takes over.
 One RP can be the
backup for multiple
primary default gateways
 Only one RP forwards
data for a LAN.

HSRP Group
Group has the
following type of RPs:
 Virtual RP
 Active RP
 Standby RP
 Other RPs
 Virtual RP
 Provides a
single RP that is available
to end stations.
 Not a real RP—the IP and
MAC addresses are not
physically assigned to any
one interface on any of the
RPs in the broadcast
domain
TECNOLOGÍAS DE RED AVANZADAS – Master IC 2009-2010

HSRP Group
 Active RP
 Responsible for forwarding all traffic destined for the Virtual RPs MAC
address.
 Elected in an election process—RP with highest priority is active. If
priorities are same, highest IP address wins. Default priority is 100.
 Only one active RP per network/subnetwork/VLAN
 Standby RP
 Elected in an election process
 Keeps tabs on Active RP by looking for HSRP multicast messages (HSRP
hellos). Hellos are sent by active RP every 3 seconds. If standby doesn’t
hear any hellos for 10 seconds, it promotes itself and becomes the
active RP.
 Sends out its own hellos every 3 seconds so that if it fails, one of the
other possible HSRP RPs in the standby group will become the standby.
 Only one standby RP per network/subnetwork/VLAN
TECNOLOGÍAS DE RED AVANZADAS – Master IC 2009-2010

8
HSRP Group
 Other HSRP RPs
 Listen for hellos from standby and active RPs.
 If any end-station uses a REAL MAC address of one of the RPs in
the broadcast domain, that specific RP (whether active, standby
or other RP) will process and forward the frame.
 Each standby group must have a unique virtual IP
address and a virtual MAC address.
 These addresses are unique across different VLANs.
 End stations perform an ARP request with the virtual IP
address and get the virtual MAC address of the default
gateway RP.
