You could use the EX to do this. However, you will need additional EXs to connect to the existing switches with the RVIs. Terminate your WAN into a "WAN" EX (assuming its ethernet handoff) and then connect this EX into your existing infrastructure via ethernet trunk.
You have two options on the WAN EX: 1. Q-in-Q 2. Pseudowires A more robust and feature-rich options would be the MX. Then you could provide VPLS and Layer 3 services at the edge of your data center of your L2 WAN... ----- Original Message ----- From: Johan Borch <johan.bo...@gmail.com> To: juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net Cc: Sent: Thursday, May 12, 2011 6:31 AM Subject: [j-nsp] mpls question Hi, I have a question regarding MPLS on ex-series. I have a situation where i need to connect several data centers together. I have never worked with MPLS before but my idea is to use MPLS to transport VLANs between the data centers. An example: a customer is located in it's own VRF and we use VLAN/RVI for servers and client networks, now I wan't to connect my core in DC1 to my core in DC2, is MPLS the right way to go? The data centers will be connected with multiple connections. I read somewhere that I can't use family ccc if the vlan has an RVI, is that correct?
