Deployment Considerations

  • SPX LAG or port: Only one SPX LAG or SPX port is allowed between the CB and the PE or between the PE and the PE.

  • Speed: No speed negotiation is possible when SPX links are configured.

  • VLANs: 4 VLANs per PE port (including the default VLAN). A maximum of 16 VLANs for 128 PE ports.

  • STP: If Spanning Tree Protocol is enabled on the CB, a reload is required.

  • IP addressing: No IP addressing on the physical PE port (only VEs are supported).
