Hi.
Backbone network is running MPLS/VPN.
I have one VRF (VRF-A) for client VPN network.
One requirement is to configure another VRF (VRF-B) for this client for a separate public VRF connection.
Sub-interfacing not allowed on CE-to-PE due to access provider limitation.
So GRE is our option.
CE config:
Note: CE is running on global. VRF-A is configured at PE.
But will add VRF-B here for the requirement.
interface Tunnel0
ip vrf forwarding VRF-B
ip address 10.12.25.22 255.255.255.252
tunnel source GigabitEthernet0/1
tunnel destination 10.12.0.133
PE1 config:
interface Tunnel0
ip vrf forwarding VRF-B
ip address 10.12.25.21 255.255.255.252
tunnel source Loopback133
tunnel destination 10.12.26.54
tunnel vrf VRF-A
Tunnel works and can ping point-to-point IP address.
CE LAN IP for VRF-B is configured as static route at PE1
PE1:
ip route vrf VRF-B 192.168.96.0 255.255.255.0 Tunnel0 10.12.25.22
But from PE2 which is directly connected to PE1 (MPLS/LDP running), connectivity doesnt works.
From PE2:
- I can ping tunnel0 interface of PE1
- I cant ping tunnel0 interface of CE
Routing is all good and present in the routing table.
From CE:
- I can ping any VRF-B loopback interface of PE1
- But not VRF-B loopback interfaces PE2 (even if routing is all good)
PE1/PE2 are 7600 SRC3/SRD6.
Any problem with 7600 on this?
Need comments/suggestions.

Hi Allan,
what is running between PE1 and PE2 ( what I mean is any routing protocol).
If No, then PE2 has no ways of knowing GRE tunnel IP prefixes and hence I suppose those will not be in its CEF table...
If Yes, then check are those Prefixes available in LDP table...

PE1 and PE2 are running as MPLS EDGE.
So it has IGP and MP-iBGP.
This issue was resolved by 'mls mpls tunnel-recir".
thanks
