Not really. I could then do route filtering beween the two VRFs. If everything was in one VRF then all directly connected interfaces woudl be in the routing table. Access control lists would need to be on all VLANS and maintained.
There are about 50 VLANS in each VRF. I woudl only have to maintain two access lists one on interface vlan 100 and one on interface 200. The two VRF also contain their own multicast pim domain and will peer with each other via MSDP Aaron On Sun, Feb 27, 2011 at 11:52 AM, Jay Taylor <[email protected]> wrote: > Seems to me that defeats the purpose of having VRFs in the first place. > > > On Sun, Feb 27, 2011 at 9:41 AM, Aaron Moreck <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Hello All, >> >> This is not directly related to the studies but something that i could use >> some input on and might be a interesting question for everyone here. >> >> I have a real world network that i need to bridge two vlans together on a >> 6509 with a sup720. >> >> Some background of the why behind my need.
