The above paragraph has a lot of issues: - "MPLS VPNs" designate the service, "VRF" is the VPN-specific routing table - the VRFs are not on CE devices, not on PEs - there is no MPLS encapsulation between PE and CE, MPLS encapsulation is used between PE routers - LDP is not run between CE and PEs (is running between PE-P, P-P, but not always, e.g. not when MPLS/GRE is used) - a non-VPN IP routing protocol may be run between CEs and PEs (such as BGP or OSPF), static routing is another possibility (in the case where a carrier's-supporting-carrier approach is used, things differ from the above, but this is not the typical deployment) Thanks, -Thomas M. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ce message et ses pieces jointes peuvent contenir des informations confidentielles ou privilegiees et ne doivent donc pas etre diffuses, exploites ou copies sans autorisation.
