Hi Team,

Have a basic question on Traditional Central Services Topology in MPLS VPN 
Network in SP.. We want all the traffic  between to be filtered by firewall 
hooked to HUB PE.
Basically thought to go ahead with below (Basic and standard !) import-export 
policy.


*         Client sites will reach server sites. Importing routes with Server_RT 
into client VRFs will achieve this goal.


*         Server sites will reach client sites. All client routes will be 
exported with a common route target (let's call it Client_RT) and will be 
imported into server VRFs based on this route target.


*         Client sites will not communicate. Routes exported with Client_RT 
will not be imported into client VRFs.
                                    HUB-PE
                                  |                |
                                  |                |
                             SPOKE PE1     SPOKE PE2

Question:  Have also seen comments in forum like. The best practice for this 
Hub and Spoke is to use TWO VRF in Hub site - "From-Spoke" and "To-Spoke"

Any benefit we can get from this 2 VRF in HUB. Hope the design I proposed also 
will not cause the traffic between spoke to be hair pinned from the HUB VRF as 
the traffic will be switched using per-prefix label
In last hop of HUB PE (we are not using per-vrf-table label ofcouse !). Running 
ASR9K's.

Any thoughts would be great.

Thanks !
