MPLS & VRF

[vtello]

Hi: Is´t the VRF concept included in the MPLS standard? is a propietary concept? Please explain.

Hello,

the VRF concept is in the MPLS standards especially in RFC 2547 - though the term "virtual site" is used there. So it is not a proprietary concept. The configuration commands are of course different from vendor to vendor. But based on the above mentioned RFC vendor interoperability is given and also implemented in several SP network.

Hope this helps! Please rate all posts.
