VRF Links on Core Switch

[Yannick Vranckx]

Dear,

I have the following question:

Can i link 2 VRFs with each other on a 3850 core switch. Please note that the VRFs are extended across a MPLS to a router in a data center and are connected there.

So

Data Center Router ====> MPLS ====> Onsite Router ===> Core Switch ===> Access Switch

At this moment we have the problem that we run a Cisco unified comm client in the data center and IP phones in the LAN, Data & Voice are seperated in these VRFs and are ended at the Data center Router. So our media traffic for that client goes to far, i want to end it at the Core Switch. So can i already link the Data & Voice VRF there instead of at the Data Center?

I can always send you more detailed information

Kind Regards,

Yannick Vranckx

Hi,

Yes, you can use import and export maps to leak routes between the VRFs.

see link for examples:
