Create E-Tree with double Root and Broadcast
The following procedure describes the creation process for a sample E-Tree with a double Root and Broadcast after having passed the initial steps in
section E-Tree creation wizard.
To create an E-Tree with a double root and Broadcast,
Proceed as follows:
1. Still in step 1 “General” of the wizard, select an appropriate service profile for the E-Tree VPLS.
• Click “Next >” to proceed to step 2 “Endpoints” of the wizard.
2. Click “+ Add Nodes”, then select the “Root” role.
• Enter the required VLAN ID for the E-Tree
• Select two (2) Root nodes from the list and click “Apply”; the Root nodes will be listed under “Root (2)” and appear on the Graph:
3. Click again “+ Add Nodes”, then select the “Leaf” role.
• Select three Leaf nodes from the list and click “Apply”; the Leaf nodes will be listed under “Leaf (n)” and appear on the Graph.
• In the map, click the “fit content to screen”

icon to adjust the graph to the map size.
In the box for each of the Root nodes, click on the

command to set the children of the Root node.
• Select the Leaf nodes as children. Click “Apply”.
• If required, click the “fit content to screen”

icon in the map to adjust the graph to the map size if not yet done.
• This will show the final graph for the sample E-Tree with single Root.
5. Click “Next >” to proceed to step 3 “Rate Limiter” of the wizard to configure the Rate Limiter if required and if supported by the service profile.
6. Click “Next >” to proceed to step 4 “Pseudo Wires” of the wizard to configure, confirm or modify the Pseudo Wires.
7. Click “Next >” to proceed to step 5 “Tunnels” of the wizard to route, select or confirm Tunnels. Missing or incomplete tunnels must be created/routed.

8. Click “Next >” to proceed to step 6 “Summary” of the wizard to view a summary. Click on “Save” , then “Deploy”, or expand the Save command and select “Save & Deploy” to deploy the E-Tree VPLS.
9. Click “Finish” to close the wizard. With this the application will return to the MPLS map.
When back in the MPLS map, the new E-Tree VPLS is listed in the Entity Browser (left panel). Select the new E-Tree VPLS and click the
