VRF

Hello

I have heard a little about vrf, can anyone explain what is used for and how I can set a simple test lab up, also could you explain the meanings, route target/distinguisher etc ?

Hello Carl,

if you make a search in search Netpro using VRF lite you can find several past threads about VRF.

the following doc provides an introduction to L3 MPLS VPN

Hope to help

Giuseppe

It's sort of for L3 what VLANs are for L2.
