Helo,

Hub and spoke frame-relay with R1 as hub. R2 and R3 are PE-routers to R4 and R5.

interface Serial1/0
 bandwidth 2048
 ip address 150.10.123.1 255.255.255.0
 encapsulation frame-relay
 ip ospf network broadcast
 ip ospf priority 10
 ip ospf 1 area 0
 mpls ip
 serial restart-delay 0
 frame-relay map ip 150.10.123.1 103
 frame-relay map ip 150.10.123.3 103 broadcast
 frame-relay map ip 150.10.123.2 102 broadcast
 no frame-relay inverse-arp
end

R2 and R3 as spokes:

R2#show run int ser 1/0.123
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 210 bytes
!
interface Serial1/0.123 point-to-point
 bandwidth 1536
 ip address 150.10.123.2 255.255.255.0
 ip ospf network broadcast
 ip ospf priority 0
 ip ospf 1 area 0
 mpls ip
 frame-relay interface-dlci 201
end


R3#show run int ser 1/0.123
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 209 bytes
!
interface Serial1/0.123 point-to-point
 bandwidth 256
 ip address 150.10.123.3 255.255.255.0
 ip ospf network broadcast
 ip ospf priority 0
 ip ospf 1 area 0
 mpls ip
 frame-relay interface-dlci 301
end

R2 and R3 advertise lables with implicit null (also tried setting
explicit null) to R1. R1 does not advertise labels for these networks
to the other spoke. For example, this is how R2 sees R3's loopback:

R2#show mpls forwarding-table  200.3.3.3
Local  Outgoing      Prefix            Bytes Label   Outgoing   Next Hop
Label  Label or VC   or Tunnel Id      Switched      interface
16     No Label      200.3.3.3/32      0             Se1/0.123  point2point

With a direct link between R2 and R3 labels for the V1 vrf connecting
R4 and R5 are distributed and everything works just fine.

If i disable R2's link in the FR cloud and instead enable a direct
back-to-back serial between R1 and R2 (with the direct link between R2
and R3 disabled so that traffic goes R2-back-to-back->R1-FR-cloud->R3)
everything works as well.

What am I missing? Is this expected behavior in a FR hub-and-spoke scenario?

thanks,
Magnus
