Thank your for the example. Is there any special configuration required on the inter-connecting interfaces between the two routers?

Hi,

The only special configuration required is the use of the 'ip vrf forwarding' command on each interface to assign it to a VRF.

Hope that helps - pls do remember to rate posts that help.
