Layer 2 VPNs

Question

Refer to the exhibit. A customer reported that traffic is failing to pass between Site-X and Site-Y. The network engineer already verified that the connectivity between IS-IS and LDP is up from TP21 to TP31. PW 1000 and PW 2000 are configured with SPX. Which action must the engineer take to resolve the issue?

Explanation

In an MPLS Layer 2 VPN, the pseudowire-class must be explicitly bound to the xconnect group so that all pseudowire parameters (encapsulation, signaling protocol, control-word setting) are applied to the neighbors. In the given configuration, the pw-class dynamic_mpls was defined but never associated under the xconnect group MS-PW10. Applying the pw-class dynamic_mpls under the xconnect ensures the pseudowires (PW 1000 and PW 2000) come up and traffic passes between Site-X and Site-Y.
