Parameter
route-distinguisher: Configures a VPN IPv4 prefix by adding an 8-byte value to a
IPv4 prefix.
Description
Using the route-distinguisher command, you can configure RD for an MPLS VPN
instance. A vpn-instance cannot run until it is configured with an RD.
A route distinguisher (RD) creates route and forwarding list for a VPN and specify
default route identifier. Add RD to a specific IPv4 prefix start to make it the only
VPN IPv4 prefix.
If ID is associated with autonomous system number(ASN), it is a combination of an
autonomous system number and an arbitrary number; if RD is associated with IP
address, it is a combination of an IP address and an arbitrary number.
RD has the following formats:
16-bit ASN: 32-bit number defined by user, for example, 101:3.
32-bit IP address: 16-bit number defined by user, for example, 192.168.122.15:1.
Example
Configure RD for the MPLS VPN instance.

in decimal is 3489661028.
