  HiCoins as reward: 0 (problem unresolved)

Hi,


1- we are using two route-policy  in MPLS Option C on ASBR ,In one policy only apply lable & other policy have if (conditional statment) also, my question is whats the meaning of if statment to check label means which label ( LDP & BGP or RD ,RT??) is checking in if condition here & why?


2- why using diffrent two policy here? & which policy is used in which direction like toward PE & remote ASBR?


3- & what will need if also want ipv4 BGP routes b/w AS  along with VPN routes?


4- why MPLS command is running b/w ASBR ? i think LDP is distributing lable then how only mpls command distribute lable b/w ASBRs?


5- which lable(Which values in lable BGP,LDP?)  is attached through apply label  commands ? 


6- as in option C we are establishing end to end tunnel then its means that need to carry same RT value through out the path from one PE  to other PE in VPN lablel.


Thanks

Hi,
1&2. As you said, in the Option C solution 1, the route policy without if-match command is used to distribute for the routes that advertise to the ASBR, while for the route policy that used to advertise the routes to the RR, there is command if-match, this is because that the ASBR might receive other BGP routes(not the control plane traffic of MPLS VPN), it should identify the traffic by the MPLS label.
3. As talked in previous, the route-policy will identify these routes.
4. The label is distributed for the BGP routes, which requires the mpls command enabled between the ASBRs.
5. If you mean the command 'apply mpls-lable' in the route-policy, the protocol MP-BGP distributes the lables.
6. Nope, it's not mandatory that the RT on both PEs are the same. RT determines which parts of VPNv4 routes should be accepted, in other words, you can adjust that under the vpn-instance view to deny or accept the specified VPNv4 routes.
