Note:
z
If you start OSPF but do not configure the router ID, the system will automatically
elect one. However, the same election rules produce the same router ID. Therefore,
you are recommended to configure the router ID when starting an OSPF process.
For the election rules, refer to
OSPF Configuration
.
z
If you configure multiple OSPF VPN instances but do not configure the route tag, the
system will automatically create one based on the AS number configured. If you do
not configure BGP, the tag will be 0. However, the same calculation rule produces
the same tag, and hence the same tag will be created for multiple OSPF VPN
instances on the same PE or PEs with the same AS number. Therefore, you are
recommended to configure different tags for different OSPF VPN instance.
1.8 Configuring Multi-VPN-instance CE
Multi-VPN-instance CE is used in LANs. By configuring multiple OSPF instances on
CEs, you can implement service isolation.
One OSPF process can belong to only one VPN instance; one VPN instance can run
several OSPF processes.
1.8.1 Configuration Prerequisites
Before configuring multi-VPN-instance CE, complete these tasks:
z
Configuring VPN instances
z
Configuring the link layer and network layer protocols on related interfaces to
ensure IP connectivity.
1.8.2 Configuration Procedure
Multi-VPN-instance CE can be regarded as a networking solution for implementing
service isolation by route isolation. There is no special configuration required for a
multi-VPN-instance CE, except that you need to enable the multi-VPN-instance CE
function.
After you enable multi-VPN-instance CE, routing loop detection on the PE is disabled
for route calculating to avoid route loss, and BGP/OSPF interoperability is disabled to
save system resources.
Follow these steps to configure multi-VPN-instance CE:
