Figure 3-10 Basic BGP MPLS VPN network model
As shown in Figure 3-10, a basic BGP/MPLS VPN network is composed of CE router, PE
router and P router. As customer edge equipment, CE is the router or switch connecting
operator’s network in customer stations. VPN function is provided by PE router. P and CE
router has no special VPN configuration needs.
To separate routing of a VPN and public Internet routing from other VPNs, PE router
generates a separated route/forwarding instance (VRF) for each VPN. PE router
generates a VRF table for each VPN connected by a CE router. Any customer and
station belongs to VPN only have access to the VRF table of the VPN.
When we build BGP/MPLS VPN network, each PE router must operate MP-BGP (use
MP-BGP between PE in MPLS VPN) to conduct VPN routing learning and notification
between PE. MP-BGP inherits BGP’s request – make full-connection between the peers
that run IBGP in one routing domain in order to notify BGP routing in routing domain.
When there are a large quantity of PE in VPN, IBGP full-connections will be a great deal,
which may cause N square problem and scalability problem. Routing reflector can be
used to solve this.
If two sites of one VPN are located in different Autonomous Systems, the corresponding
PE router cannot use IBGP connection to forward VPN-Ipv4 routes. At this time EBGP
must be used to transport VPN-IPv4 route between AS with back-to-back VRF: using
EBGP to distribute VPN-IPv4 route with mark and using Multi-hop EBGP to distribute
VPN-IPv4 routes from one AS to another.
ZXR10 8900E series support complete MPLS L3 VPN, address overlapping, CE static
routing, RIP, OSPF, and BGP access. They support BGP scalable union, capability
negotiation, and route refreshing. They support binding of interface with VRF, and
binding of VLAN with VRF.
