Configuring ATM/IMA Pseudowire Redundancy in Port Mode

Complete the following steps to configure pseudowire redundancy in port mode.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. enable
2. configure terminal
3. interface interface-name
4. xconnect peer-ip-address vc-id encapsulation mpls
5. backup peer peer-router-ip-addr vcid
DETAILED STEPS
Step 5 xconnect
peer-ip-address vc-id
encapsulation mpls
Example:
Router(config-if)# xconnect
192.168.1.12 100 encapsulation mpls
Binds an attachment circuit to a pseudowire, and to configure an Any
Transport over MPLS (AToM) static pseudowire.
peer-ip-address—IP address of the remote provider edge (PE) peer.
The remote router ID can be any IP address, as long as it is reachable.
vcid32-bit identifier of the VC between the routers at each end of
the layer control channel.
encapsulationSpecifies the tunneling method to encapsulate the
data in the pseudowire.
Step 6 backup peer
peer-router-ip-addr
vcid
Example:
Router(config-if-xconn)# backup
peer 170.0.0.201 200
Specifies a redundant peer for a pseudowire virtual circuit (VC).
peer-router-idIP address of the remote peer router.
vcid32-bit identifier of the VC between the routers at each end of
the layer control channel.
