Enable VRF
VRF is enabled by default when VRF microcode is loaded on an E-Series ExaScale or TeraScale router.
On an E-Series router, Dell Force10 VRF supports up to 15 VRF instances: 1 to 14 and the default VRF
(0).
A VRF name is not exchanged between routers. VRF IDs are local to a router. The following features and
functionality are supported only on the default VRF (0) instance:
•
ISIS
•
BGP
•
RIP
•
IPv6
•
Multicast
•
Static ARP
