Jason, It has been a few years since I have seen SUP2, but I hope I remember the details...
Sup2 does not support any MPLS based services natively, and the only way to get MPLS to work on SUP2 is to use an OSM module to terminate the services on (not just core facing - the whole thing). With SUP720 you can do native MPLS (without any special line cards) for L3 VPN and port/sub-if based L2VPN (not SVI). For SVI based, as well as EVC based MPLS services you need ES/ES+ modules.

Possible? In a perfect world, port based and VLAN based (the implication being that interworking support would need to be there too), in either case, the far end of the VC would be to a NPE-G1 flavored PE/LER of some sort. Google has shown me configuration example of a Sup2 doing SVI based EoMPLS, but that confuses the heck out of me because I know that, for example, in Sup720 land, you can't do SVI based unless you have an ES card or a SIP. If this is true and it does actually work, would this just be the difference between the Sup2 doing it in software vs. the Sup720/ES|SIP doing it in hardware? Hoping some people here have some practical experience one way or the other. Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
