•
PE 1 and PE 2 are the provider carrier's PE routers. They provide VPN services for the
customer carrier.
•
CE 1 and CE 2 are the customer carrier's routers. They are connected to the provider carrier's
backbone as CE routers.
•
PE 3 and PE 4 are the customer carrier's PE routers. They provide MPLS L3VPN services for
the end customers.
•
CE 3 and CE 4 are customers of the customer carrier.
•
The customer carrier and the provider carrier reside in different ASs.
The key to carrier's carrier deployment is to configure exchange of two kinds of routes:
•
Exchange of the customer carrier's internal routes on the provider carrier's backbone.
•
Exchange of the end customers' VPN routes between PE 3 and PE 4, the PEs of the customer
carrier. In this process, an MP-EBGP peer relationship must be established between PE 3 and
PE 4.
