host1(config-router-af)#neighbor 10.4.4.4 activate
6. Use neighbor commands to configure additional address family parameters for
the session, then exit the address family.
This example configures only the next-hop-self attribute, forcing the BGP speaker
to report itself as the next hop for an advertised route that it learned from a
neighbor.
host1(config-router-af)#neighbor 10.4.4.4 next-hop-self
host1(config-router-af)#exit-address-family
7. Create the VPLS address family to configure the router to exchange layer 2 NLRI
for each VPLS instance configured on the router.
You must issue the address-family vpls command separately for each VPLS
instance configured on the router.
host1(config-router)#address-family vpls customer1
host1(config-router-af)#exit-address-family
host1(config-router)#address-family vpls customer2
After you configure MPLS LSPs and BGP signaling, the router automatically generates
a VPLS virtual core interface for each VPLS instance. The VPLS virtual core interface
represents all of the MPLS tunnels from the router to the remote VE device.

VPLS Configuration Example with BGP Signaling
The example in this section shows how to configure the VPLS topology illustrated in
Figure 129 on page 602. The example includes the commands for configuring VPLS
on both the local E Series router (PE 1) and the remote E Series router (PE 2).
