Ospf Vpn Extension - HP FlexNetwork 10500 Series Configuration Manual

Assume that the outgoing label for the public tunnel on PE 3 is Lv.
After route advertisement and public tunnel setup, a packet is forwarded from CE 3 to CE 1 by using
the following process:
7. PE 3 performs the following routing table lookups for the packet:
a. Finds a matching route with next hop PE 1 and inner label Lx, and encapsulates the packet
with label Lx.
b. Finds the route to PE 1 with next hop ASBR 2 and label L3, and encapsulates the packet
with label L3 as the outer label.
c. Finds the route to ASBR 2 with outgoing label Lv, and encapsulates the packet with label Lv
as the outmost label.
8. AS 200 transmits the packet to ASBR 2 by the outmost label.
9. ASBR 2 removes the outmost label, replaces L3 with L2, and forwards the packet to ASBR 1.
10. ASBR 1 replaces L2 with L1, and forwards the packet.
11. AS 100 transmits the packet to PE 1 by the outer label.
12. PE 1 removes the outer label, and forwards the packet to CE 1 according to the inner label Lx.
As shown in
exchange VPN-IPv4 routes with PEs in the same AS. The RR in each AS maintains all VPN-IPv4
routes. The RRs in two ASs establish a multihop MP-EBGP session to advertise VPN-IPv4 routes.

OSPF VPN extension

This section describes the OSPF VPN extension. For more information about OSPF, see Layer
3—IP Routing Configuration Guide.
OSPF for VPNs on a PE
If OSPF runs between a CE and a PE to exchange VPN routes, the PE must support multiple OSPF
instances to create independent routing tables for VPN instances. Each OSPF process is bound to a
VPN instance. Routes learned by an OSPF process are added into the routing table of the bound
VPN instance.
OSPF area configuration between a PE and a CE
The OSPF area between a PE and a CE can be either a non-backbone area or a backbone area.
