That command is _the_ way to show the VRFs BGP table. Remember that VRF comes from the MP-BGP world, and over there belongs under VPNv4. It's just syntax though, you don't run VPNv4 if you haven't configured the "address-family vpnv4". > It also seems like the switch is creating MPLS labels for all my routes > even though I didn't specifically configure any MPLS or tag switching > commands. Any words of wisdom or advice would be appreciated... Are you sure you don't have any MPLS related commands? On a "clean" switch i get: R1# sh mpls ldp bin TIB not enabled R1#sh mpls for Tag switching is not operational. CEF or tag switching has not been enabled. No TFIB currently allocated. R1# (This is SXD though, which was there. It might be different on newer software.) If you have any MPLS command configured, the allocation is expected. The switch will always allocate labels for anything in the FIB, also is e.g. no interfaces are configured for MPLS. (That is unless you're lucky and can use Label Allocation Filtering, http://tinyurl.com/224kv8. On a 6500 you're not at the moment.)
