Inter-AS MDT-based MVPN

In an inter-AS VPN networking scenario, VPN sites are located in multiple ASs. These sites must be interconnected. Inter-AS VPN provides the following solutions:

• VRF-to-VRF connections between ASBRs—This solution is also called inter-AS option A.

• EBGP redistribution of labeled VPN-IPv4 routes between ASBRs—ASBRs advertise VPN-IPv4 routes to each other through MP-EBGP. This solution is also called inter-AS option B.

• Multihop EBGP redistribution of labeled VPN-IPv4 routes between PE devices—PEs advertise VPN-IPv4 routes to each other through MP-EBGP. This solution is also called inter-AS option C.

For more information about the three inter-AS VPN solutions, see MPLS L3VPN configuration in MPLS Configuration Guide.

Based on these solutions, there are three ways to implement inter-AS MVPN:

• MDT-based MVPN inter-AS option A.

• MDT-based MVPN inter-AS option B.

• MDT-based MVPN inter-AS option C.
