[c-nsp] 6509, Sup2 VRF's

[Arie Vayner]

Skeeve,

You could try and get an OSM module (it is become obsolete as the Sup2...)
This card would allow you to implement not just VRF-Lite but also full blown
MPLS/VPN.

You would have to use an external trunk from the "6500" to the "OSM", and
bridge any VLAN you want to use inside a VRF to the OSM, which would perform
all the L3 functionality for that VLAN.
