Can someone confirm that VPLS is supported on the Cisco ASR1001?With the feature navigator it looks like the ASR1001 is the only ASR1000 series router with VPLS support but I can't find any documentation confirming this.
Normally you write the RD as ASN:nn but with a 32-bit AS this is not possible. Is there a good reason to use your own AS-number or is this only for reference and can any randomly choosen number be used as ASN?Is this the same for route-targets?
Yes you can, as long as you use explicit paths with strict next hops and use the verbatim keyword in the path-option:
interface Tunnel1 ip unnumbered Loopback0 tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng tunnel destination 2.2.2.2 tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-opti...
Hi,
You need to assign the VRF through a radius attribute.
Cisco-AVPair = "ip:vrf-id=Greatham",
Edit:
Sorry, I misread your post. Could you also post the config and show route of the neighbor router?
Routing is uni-directional so this is not possible because you cannot influence the way the returning traffic flows based on the source addres of that returning traffic.
You can use AS path-prepending to advertise a longer AS path to one provider and/or BGP communities to influence the local preference on the provider site.See http://blog.ioshints.info/2008/02/bgp-essentials-as-path-prepending.html for more informati...
Hi Nitzan I don't have access to an ASR router to test it but I think it should be possible to configure VPLS on the layer 3 interface of an bridge-domain the same way as you should do it when using switchports.So the configuration of PE1 of your lin...
