3) VPLS MIB - (slides - .ppt)
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-l2vpn-vpls-mib-02
A S Kiran Koushik (kkoushik@cisco.com)
15 mins

- Request input from WG

4) Framework and Requirements for Virtual Private Multicast Service (VPMS) - (slides - .ppt)
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-kamite-l2vpn-vpms-frmwk-requirements-02
Yuji Kamite (y.kamite@ntt.com)
20 mins
- Show major update since Dublin
- Ask WG to accept this as WG doc, following the charter update about VPMS that was announced recently
- Ask WG to agree to the proposed concept of VPMS, (as a new L2VPN framework that uses P2MP-PW)

5) Multi-homing in BGP-based Virtual Private LAN Service - (slides - .ppt)
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-kompella-l2vpn-vpls-multihoming-02
Bhupesh Kothari (bhupesh@juniper.net)
15 mins
- This version has updates on multihoming operations with multiple VE IDs. There was a bit of discussion on this topic on the IETF mailing list. The new sections on this topic clarifies the issues raised.
- There is a new section that explains MAC flush in BGP-VPLS. This was a pending item and was also brought up during last IETF presentation.
- Minor updates on inter-AS operations.

6) VPLS Flush in BGP-based Virtual Private LAN Service - (slides - .ppt)
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-kothari-l2vpn-vpls-flush-00
Bhupesh Kothari (bhupesh@juniper.net)
15 mins
- This is a new draft that defines procedures that allow BGP based VPLS PEs to send explicit flush notifications to remote VPLS PEs. A new BGP capability for flush mechanisms in BGP based VPLS is proposed.

7) Multicast Pruning in Provider Backbone Bridged VPLS - (slides - .ppt)
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sajassi-l2vpn-pbb-vpls-multicast-00
Ali Sajassi (sajassi@cisco.com)
15 mins
- This is a draft that was scheduled to be discussed in last IETF in Dublin but because we ran out of time, we couldn't cover it.
- This draft discusses multicast pruning for PBB-VPLS and how PW scaling is improved drastically with such scheme.

8) PBB-VPLS Consolidation Plan - (slides - .ppt)
