Hi All
Please fill me up on this one,,,,,,When an Ingress PE receive a new VPN route, which one of the 3 tables is it going to build first? the RIB followed by FIB and then the LFIB? When do CEF join the equation? When is the VPN label and the Transport label added to the prefix entry. Please refer to the below output,the first output had the VPN label allocated but not the transport label. Your help will be appreciated!
