Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) |
1111
Only Layer 3 interfaces can belong to a VRF. VRF is supported on following types of interface:
•
physical Ethernet interfaces
•
physical Sonet interfaces
•
port-channel interfaces (static & dynamic using LACP)
•
VLAN interfaces
•
loopback interfaces
VRF supports route redistribution between routing protocols (including static routes) only when the routes
are within the same VRF.
FTOS uses both the VRF name and VRF ID to manage VRF instances. The VRF name and VRF ID
number are assigned using the
ip vrf
command. The VRF ID is displayed in
show ip vrf
command output.
The VRF ID is not exchanged between routers. VRF IDs are local to a router.
VRF supports some routing protocols only on the default VRF (
default-vrf
) instance.
Table 57-1
displays
the software features supported in VRF and whether they are supported on all VRF instances or only the
default VRF.
Table 57-1.
