Hello,
No, unfortunately it's not possible w/o additional hw.
The reson is, that 'traditional', L2 capable ports are not
PXF-connexted. And without PXF connection you could not handle VRFs
nor can you switch labeled/tagged packets :(

Tárgy: [nsp] vrf on a native-mode Cat6k
I'm trying to set up a Catalyst 6509 in native mode with 48-port RJ45
blades as a border router.
It has 2 WAN and 2 LAN facing ethernet ports.
On one WAN port, it's running OSPF only, the other just has a static
default route. Each WAN port corresponds to a single LAN port. BGP is
not running on the 6509.
In order to simplify the separation and remove the need for route
filtering, local policy-routes and other weirdness, I'm trying to set up
two VRFs to isolate each pair of interfaces and their routing tables.
All of the VRF commands are accepted, and the VRF appears to work in
that the OSPF routing table and the static route are properly isolated
to VRFs. However, I can't ping the IP address of any interface in a VRF
nor can I route a packet through the device.
It's been suggested that the 6509 is not capable of performing this task
unless I were to buy an OSM-4GE-WAN and set up a trunk to an interface
on this module which has Provider switching enabled.
I'm not looking for full MPLS.
Does anyone know if this is possible without the additional hardware?
Thanks...
Steve
