Configuring Routing Instances for an MBGP MVPN
To configure MBGP MVPNs, include the mvpn
statement:
mvpn { mvpn-mode (rpt-spt | spt-only); receiver-site; route-target { export-target { target target-community; unicast; } import-target { target { target-value; receiver target-value; sender target-value; } unicast { receiver; sender; } } } sender-site; traceoptions { file filename <files number> <size size> <world-readable | no-world-readable>; flag flag <flag-modifier> <disable>; } }
You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:
[edit routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols]
[edit logical-systems logical-system-name routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols]
By default an MBGP MVPN routing instance is associated with
both the multicast sender and the receiver sites. If you configure
the receiver-site
option, the routing instance is associated
with only multicast receiver sites. Configuring the sender-site
option associates the routing instance with only multicast sender
sites.
When you configure the routing instance for the MBGP MVPN, you must configure MPLS LSPs (either RSVP-signaled or LDP-signaled) between the PE routers of the routing instance to ensure VPN unicast connectivity. Point-to-multipoint LSPs are used for multicast data forwarding only.
