Configuration Tasks for RA to MPLS VPN
Note
Apply the
ip vrf forwarding
command and then the
ip address
command. If you do not, the
ip vrf
forwarding
command removes the existing IP address on the interface.

Configuring Multiprotocol BGP PE to PE Routing Sessions
To configure multiprotocol BGP (MP-BGP) routing sessions between the PE routers, enter the following
commands on the PE routers beginning in global configuration mode:
Step 4
Router(config)#
interface virtual-template
number
Creates a virtual template interface and enters interface
configuration mode.
Step 5
Router(config-if)#
ip vrf forwarding
vrf-name
Associates a VRF with a virtual template interface.
Command
Purpose
Command
Purpose
Step 1
Router(config)#
router bgp
autonomous-system
Configures the internal BGP (iBGP) routing process with the
autonomous system number passed along to other
iBGP routers.
Step 2
Router(config-router)#
no bgp default
ipv4-unicast
Disables IPv4 BGP routing.
Step 3
Router(config-router)#
neighbor
{
ip-address
|
peer-group-name
}
remote-as
as-number
Configures the neighboring PE router’s IP address or iBGP
peer group and identifies it to the local autonomous system.
The MP-BGP neighbors must use the loopback addresses.
Step 4
Router(config-router)#
neighbor
{
ip-address
|
peer-group-name
}
update-source
interface-type
Allows iBGP sessions to use any operational interface for
TCP connections.
Step 5
Router(config-router)#
neighbor
{
ip-address
|
peer-group-name
}
activate
Activates route exchanges with the global BGP neighbors.
