Optional.
Configuring MD-VPN
Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure MD-VPN, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure any unicast routing protocol on the public network.
•
Configure MPLS L3VPN on the public network.
•
Configure PIM (PIM-DM, PIM-SM, BIDIR-PIM, or PIM-SSM) on the public network.
•
Determine the VPN instance names and route distinguishers (RDs).
•
Determine the share-group addresses and an MTI numbers.
Enabling IP multicast routing in a VPN instance
Before you configure any MD-VPN functionality for a VPN, you must enable IP multicast routing in
the VPN instance.
Perform the following configuration on the PE.
To enable IP multicast routing in a VPN instance:
Step Command

Disabled by default.
Configuring a share-group and an MTI binding
By running multiple instances on each PE device, you enable the PE device to work for multiple
VPNs. You must configure the same share-group address for the same VPN instance on different PE
devices. With a share-group and an MTI number configured, the system automatically creates an
MTI, binds the share-group address to the MTI, and binds the MTI to the current VPN instance.
Configuration procedure
Perform the following configuration on the PE.
To configure a share-group and an MTI binding:
