If you're talking a requirement for connecting geographically separated
locations, there are sound technical reasons for avoiding vpls like the

Almost every time a customer has asked me for VPLS (or EVPN), they've
been just fine with l3vpn as a suggested alternative.

Other customers are all about doing their own routing...
