RE: MBGP/MPLS VPN question [7:64036]
Whether you use Private or Public really does not matter. The provider will create a specific VPN just for you and this will not have any effect on the global routing table of your provider. And even if it did, the whole idea of public networks are address unique to you on the public network so no one besides you should be using it. Originally before the MPLS VPN came about, you had to use a public address/networks to peer with your provider at layer 3(for example the internet or similar), but by using rfc 2547 VPN, you are allowed to use private networks (like your Frame Relay network) if you want to... So kind of combining the positive features of both layer 2 and layer 3 VPN technology. - Paul Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=64317t=64036 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: MBGP/MPLS VPN question [7:64036]
Theoritically a VRF operation should allow you to do it. Think of it as having a GRE tunnel between 2 sites, and you use an overlapping public range across it, you can do it. It may still depend on the provider, so check with them rgds Nick Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=64039t=64036 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MBGP/MPLS VPN question [7:64036]
I don't think they should have a problem. The VRF should be created just for you so there should be no conflict. I never used this service from any of my providers so I cannot be certain. But as far as I'm concerned they shouldn't even care what addressing you're using between the sites. They provide the tunnel and shouldn't care much for your addressing scheme unless you ask them too, and as long as your contract is properly setup I think it would be no big deal. Lo Ching wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear All, We have some ip address that use internally,eg, 30.x or 40.x but it is not in private address range. Can I still use this range when connect to the IP-VPN provider that using MPLS technology? I know that MPLS can allow overlapping of customer address by using VRF and RD. I wonder any technical conflict issue on Normal BGP in this case. Thanks in advance. rgds, Lo Ching Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=64041t=64036 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
