Abstract:
Under certain conditions it is desirable for a Border Gateway
Protocol (BGP) route reflector to be able to modify the Route Target
(RT) list of a Virtual Private Network (VPN) route that the route
reflector distributes, enabling the route reflector to control how a
route originated within one Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) is
imported into other VRFs. This technique works effectively as long
as the VRF that exports the route is not on the same Provider Edge
(PE) router than the VRF(s) that import the route. However, due to
the constraints of the BGP protocol, it does not work if the two are
on the same PE. This document describes a modification to the BGP
protocol allowing this technique to work when the VRFs are on the
same PE, and to be used in a standard manner throughout an autonomous
system.
