Vpls Configuration Task List - HP 10500 Series Configuration Manual

Figure 73 PE dual homing
VPLS uses the backup U-PW if one of the following conditions exists:
The tunnel over which the primary PW is established is deleted, causing the primary PW to go
•
down.
BFD detects that the primary PW fails.
•
The primary PW is deleted by the control plane because the LDP session between the PEs on the
•
primary PW is down.
A primary/backup PW switchover is manually performed.
