Hi Irwan,

Once you get your IGP and MPLS set up all you need to do is configure
EoMPLS.

That configuration is documented here. 
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1612/products
_feature_guide09186a00800e9571.html#1045718

At that point the VLAN you transported over MPLS is similar to a switch
port through the WAN.  Both of your PCs need to in that VLAN and
configured to be in the same subnet.  You should have connectivity
between them.

This is in the above document, but the number one mistake people make
when configuring EoMPLS for the first time is forgetting to change their
MTU on the MPLS network. Remember that if you have 1500 byte MTU links
on your WAN those will need to be increased to accommodate EoMPLS'd
Ethernet Frames.

Your main troubleshooting command will be "show mpls l2transport vc"


Good Luck,

Mike

Subject: .-. [MPLS-OPS]: Layer 2 VPN Over MPLS Configuration

Good Day 

I'm Irwan, Student from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I
would like to know sample configuration for Layer 2
VPN over MPLS(Martini Draft) running on Cisco 7200
with IOS 12.3 

I would like to know the specific task and requirement
for me to setup. 

The Scenario :

2 PC , 4 Cisco 7200 VXR 

The PC will be the two site of CE's and 2 7200 will be
the PE Router and 2 will be the P Router


I have configured :

- IP Address for each PE and P interface 
- IGP ( OSPF)
- MPLS, LDP 
-ATOM( Layer 2 Transport Configuration) 
  -> Configured Ethernet over MPLS 

Is there anything that i forgot to configure ? 

If in Layer 3 VPN we configure VFR, what about the
Layer 2 VPN over MPLS (Martini) .

What should I configure between the PC's(CE) and PE
Router.

Thanks for the help .
