Hello Binod

Take a look at this response:

> Hello Binod Yes, you are correct VPLS is indeed a Layer 2 technology, so there is no routing involved. VPLS is a type of Metro Ethernet, which essentially delivers a Layer 2 pipe to each of your remote sites. VPLS is one of several implementations of Metro Ethernet that you can find out about in this lesson: [https://networklessons.com/cisco/ccna-routing-switching-icnd2-200-105/introduction-to-metro-ethernet](https://networklessons.com/cisco/ccna-routing-switching-icnd2-200-105/introduction-to-metro-ethernet) VPLS is sometimes called Ethernet LAN service. How do you implement routing in this…

I hope this has been helpful!
