Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) Using BGP for Auto-Discovery and Signaling

Abstract
Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS), also known as Transparent LAN
Service and Virtual Private Switched Network service, is a useful
Service Provider offering. The service offers a Layer 2 Virtual
Private Network (VPN); however, in the case of VPLS, the customers in
the VPN are connected by a multipoint Ethernet LAN, in contrast to the
usual Layer 2 VPNs, which are point-to-point in nature. This document
describes the functions required to offer VPLS, a mechanism for
signaling a VPLS, and rules for forwarding VPLS frames across a packet
switched network. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
