Hi, 

We are working on implementing mpls in our network. The network is small 
(<10 nodes) so we want to run everything on the same box at each node, P/PE 
and VPN and internet access. We "hired" the c6500/sup720-3bxl to do the job. 

Starting from scratch with little mpls expirence, your help would be 
appreciated :) 

One concern is where to put the global internet routing table. That is, 
should we put the VPN services ontop of the internet or should we put them 
into a VRF. We would prefer to put them into a vrf, but without seperate 
peering routers maybe thats not a good idea ? 

Should we use public addresses in the "default vrf" to avoid future address 
conflicts in MP-BGP carrier peerings - regardless of where the global 
internet routing table lives ? 

Also if you know of whitepapers or books that discusses the deployment 
issues, do's and don'ts that Service providers face I would appreaciate the 
reference.
