Hi,

Thanks. Is the proposal is to manually assign/configure in each PE?.

Hi Nagendra,

In the method, the egress PEs in the RG have to use the same VPN route label 
for one VPN site (e.g., 1100 for VPN1). 
As for the prefix, all prefixes (e.g., 10.1.1.0/24) learnt from this VPN site 
will be stored in the corresponding VRF (e.g., VPN1' VPN instance) identified 
by the VPN route label.

I guess you propose to share the label "per-prefix". It's possible to do so but 
not as common as the "per-VRF" assignment in current practice. 

Thanks,
Mingui

>Abstract:
>   This document describes a method to be used by Service Providers to
>   provide fast protection of VPN connections for a CE. Egress PEs in a
>   redundant group always assign the same label for VPN routes from a
>   VRF. These egress PEs create a BGP virtual Next Hop (vNH) in the
>   domain of the IP/MPLS backbone network as an agent of the CE router.
>   Primary and backup tunnels terminated at the vNH are set up by the
>   BGP/MPLS IP VPN based on IGP FRR. If the primary egress PE fails, the
>   backup egress PEs can recognize the "shared" VPN route label and
>   deliver the failure affected packets accordingly.
