Hello,
I have Layer-2 communication problem to solve to let 2 servers communicate over a routed core. My core and distribution switches are 6500 with sup720-3b. I figured out that the only way I could do that without having to pull a physical link in between was to use EoMPLS.
That's how it's configured
DIST_1-G1/1 <--> G1/1-CORE-G1/2 <--> G1/1-DIST_2
DIST_1 configuration:
mpls label protocol ldp
interface Loopback0
ip address 10.1.1.3 255.255.255.255
interface GigabitEthernet1/1
ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.252
tag-switching ip
interface Vlan174
no ip address
mpls l2transport route 10.1.1.4 174
DIST_2 configuration:
mpls label protocol ldp
interface Loopback0
ip address 10.1.1.4 255.255.255.255
interface GigabitEthernet1/1
ip address 192.168.1.6 255.255.255.252
tag-switching ip
interface Vlan174
no ip address
mpls l2transport route 10.1.1.3 174
CORE configuration:
mpls label protocol ldp
interface GigabitEthernet1/1
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.252
tag-switching ip
interface GigabitEthernet1/2
ip address 192.168.1.5 255.255.255.252
tag-switching ip
the VLAN 174 is created on both distributions and all 3 have OSPF configured and I can ping loopbacks.
Attached are a few show commands
Can anyone tell me what is wrong with my setup?
Thanks,
Antoine
