[c-nsp] Half duplex VRF

Hi Arie,

This is already in place and the virtual-access interfaces belongs to this
vrf and so do their PPP host router.

This routes are not visible in upstream vrt U which is great but these
routes do appear in Downstream vrf D so that is the reason they route
locally and doesnt go towards hub CE.

The illustrations that i have seen before have CE sites connected on
different PE routers whereas in my case the CE routers are connected to
same PE and hence we want to avoid local routing on the LNS.

Please let me know your thoughts over this.

Thanks
Hitesh
