Forward iBGP VPNv4 routes from PE to VRF of CE

Level 1

Good Morning, 

We're having troubles redistributing routes learned over iBGP VPNv4 from a PE to the VRF Customer1 of a connected CE.

The PE (XR3) receives the IPv4 route 10.2.0.0/24 over iBGP VPNv4 from the RR (2011::1):

OS is Cisco IOS XR.

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:XR3#show bgp vpnv4 unicast neighbors 2011::1 routes

Route Distinguisher: 1:1 (default for vrf Customer1)
*>i10.2.0.0/24 2015::1 100 0 64700 i
Processed 1 prefixes, 1 paths

But the PE (XR3) doesn't forward this route 10.2.0.0/24 to the VRF Customer1 of the, over eBGP connected, CE (10.36.0.2):

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:XR3#show bgp vrf Customer1 ipv4 unicast neighbors 10.36.0.2 advertised-routes
Fri Dec 2 08:31:35.239 UTC
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:XR3#

We're running dualstack (IPv4, IPv6) and the PE receives the IPv6 route fd00:a::/112 from our RR.

BGP router identifier 3.3.3.3, local AS number 65000

*>ifd00:a::/112 2015::1 100 0 64700 i
Processed 1 prefixes, 1 paths

And also forwards this IPv6 route fd00:a::/112 to to VRF for our CE.

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:XR3#show bgp vrf Customer1 ipv6 unicast neighbors 2001:db8:36::6 advertised-routes

fd00:a::/112 2001:db8:36::3 2011::1 65000 64700i
Processed 1 prefixes, 1 paths

So I'm assuming we're probably missing something in the BGP IPv4 unicast settings of our PE (XR3), that doesn't forward the route 10.2.0.0/24 to our VRF Customer1 of the CE. 

This is our PE (XR3) BGP configuration:

Thanks for any help in advance.

edit:

BGP IPv4 unicast- and BGP IPv6 unicast-peering is established between PE (XR3) and CE.

Hi @lukassgg ,

It looks like it is a misconfiguration on the remote PE (5.5.5.5), because of the following output:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:XR3#show bgp vpnv4 unicast vrf Customer1 10.2.0.0/24

Can you post the remote PE BGP configuration?
