Restarting an L3 VPN service

You can restart an L3 VPN service to restore it in case of malfunctions. When you restart an L3 VPN service, the controller automatically deletes and re-creates the rules associated with this L3 VPN service in the OpenFlow tables of CPE devices. This affects CPE devices whose service interfaces are added to the L3 VPN service.

To restart an L3 VPN service:

  1. In the menu, go to the Infrastructure section.

    This opens the resource management page. By default, the Network resources tab is selected, which displays the table of controllers.

  2. Click Management → Configuration menu next to the controller.

    This opens the controller configuration menu. By default, you are taken to the Controller nodes section, which displays a table of controller nodes.

  3. Go to the L3 VPN services section.

    A table of L3 VPN services is displayed.

  4. Click Management → Reprovision next to the L3 VPN service that you want to reprovision.
  5. In the confirmation window, click Confirm.

The L3 VPN service is restarted.
