Step
12. Enable BGP to exchange
VPNv4 routes with the PE in
the same AS and the ASBR
in different ASs.
13. Disable route target based
filtering of VPNv4 routes.
Configuring inter-AS option C
To configure inter-AS option C, perform configurations on PEs and ASBRs.
•
PE configuration:
Configure basic MPLS L3VPN, and specify the PE in another AS as an MP-EBGP peer. The
route targets for the VPN instances on the PEs in different ASs must match for the same
VPN. For information about PE configuration, see
Execute the peer ebgp-max-hop command to enable the local router to establish an EBGP
session to an indirectly-connected peer, because the PEs are not directly connected.
Specify the ASBR in the same AS as an IBGP peer, and enable BGP to exchange labeled
IPv4 unicast routes with the ASBR.
•
ASBR configuration:
Configure a routing protocol, and enable MPLS and LDP on the interface connected to an
internal router of the AS.
Specify the PE in the same AS as an IBGP peer, and the ASBR in a different AS as an
EBGP peer.
Enable BGP to exchange labeled IPv4 unicast routes with the PE in the same AS and the
ASBR in different AS.
Enable MPLS capability on the interface connected to the ASBR in another AS. There is no
need to configure a label distribution protocol, for example, LDP.
(Optional.) Configure a routing policy to determine which IPv4 unicast routes are advertised
to the IBGP or EBGP peer with MPLS labels.
In addition, configure BGP to advertise routes destined for a PE on PEs or ASBRs. For more
information, see Layer 3—IP Routing Configuration Guide.
Configuring a PE
To configure a PE for inter-AS option C:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter BGP view.
3.
Configure the ASBR in the
same AS as an IBGP peer.
4.
Configure the PE of another
AS as an EBGP peer.
5.
Create the BGP IPv4 unicast
Command
peer { group-name | ip-address
[ mask-length ] } enable
undo policy vpn-target
Command
system-view
bgp as-number
peer { group-name | ip-address
[ mask-length ] } as-number
as-number
peer { group-name | ip-address
[ mask-length ] } as-number
as-number
address-family ipv4 [ unicast ]

Remarks
By default, BGP cannot exchange
VPNv4 routing information with a
peer.
By default, the PE filters received
VPNv4 routes by route targets.
The routes surviving the filtering
are added to the routing table, and
the others are discarded.
