Hi!
Pros: Security. You can make device management based on private addresses like 10./172. So no one ever can get remote access to your routers from internet. Cons: Memory consuption on routers. Each full view will consume more router's ram that usual. A bit more annoying troubleshoot - you need to type ping vrf, trace vrf and so on Works well on NPE-G1, IOS bases GSR's Mark Tech wrote: > Hi > We area going to deploy a new MPLS network which will be used for Internet > customers and IP/VPN customers.
