Yes, thanks.

I don't see that.
The bit that, in 4rd-U hub&spoke, is changed for the CE-to-BR direction has 
been included precisely to support this case. 
Otherwise, packets sent by a CE to another CE would be routed directly to its 
destination, without a detour via a BR.

All what is required is that CEs set an address bit if hub&spoke topology is 
required.
