Hi all, while practicing with VRF-lite recently, i seem to have encounter with a nasty problem.
I typed in manually this sample config, it works (credits to oliver from cisco): !---------------------------------- ip vrf customer_A rd 1:1 route-target export 1:100 route-target import 1:900 ! ip vrf customer_B rd 1:2 route-target export 1:200 route-target import 1:900 ! ip vrf Hub rd 1:9 route-target export 1:900 route-target import 1:100 route-target import 1:200 ! router bgp 65000 address-fam ipv4 vrf customer_A redistribute static redistribute connected address-fam ipv4 vrf customer_B redistribute static redistribute connected address-fam ipv4 vrf Hub redistribute static redistribute connected !---------------------------------- So i went off to experiment more numbers, such as rd 1:0 rd 1:9999 etc After the usual configuration, i realise my inter-vrf routes did not propagate through and couldnt figure out whats going on. I also did clear ip vrf <name> * and waited for BGP to advertise itself, but still no show. Last move : Write erase and reconfig again but tis time with smaller numbers RD 1:99 This time it work properly. I was wondering if this is due to me using some illegal numbers such as zero or 9999. I have went through articles that RD are meant to be 8bytes (ip:NN or asn:NN), so i assume NN = 4bytes or 32bits , hence the max value should be 65535 ? Cisco IOS tabbing recommends the syntax as ASN:NN , does it properly reflect 2 digits only ? I find it wierd that only 99 vpns are supported if so. Do you have any experience on this ? _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
