z
A routing switch running MPLS has routing functions. The term “router” in this
document refers to a router in a generic sense or a Layer 3 Ethernet switch running
MPLS.

This chapter covers only introduction to and configuration of MPLS L3VPN. For
information about MPLS basics, BGP, and VPN, refer to the relevant manuals or
volumes.
z
For an S9500 Series routing switch, only line processor units (LPUs) with a suffix of
C, CA or CB and VPLS service processor cards (SPCs) support MPLS. For S9500
Series routing switches to support MPLS VPN functions, you need to equip them
with MPLS capable LPUs or VPLS SPCs. You can identify the suffix of an LPU by
the silkscreen in the upper right corner of the LPU’s front panel. As an example, the
silkscreen of an LSB1P4G8CA0 LPU is P4G8CA, and therefore the suffix of the
LPU is CA.
