[c-nsp] L2VPN between ASR920 and Juniper

[Alireza Soltanian]

Dear Vinod

So I don't get the point.
If EoMPLS over GRE is not supported so why EoMPLS without GRE is supported?
Anyway If we use GRE just for routing the traffic (MPLS/IP) does it work
properly? In my tests I did not have any issue with routing MPLS/IP traffic
over GRE between two 920 or 920 with other routers(M320,7200VXR,2821,..) but
it was in the lab with a little amount of traffic. I am talking about 4 or 5
Gbps traffic.
Another thing which came into my mind is the proper replacement. What if we
use ASR1001 or ASR1002(X) ?
Then in that case can we have proper EoMPLS over GRE same as old IOS routers
but with more power and capacity of handling more traffic?

Thank you in advanced.
Alireza

Hi Gert,

I differ from your opinion.
If you compare the feature set, it is actually the other way.It's more of a
router with strong carrier ethernet capabilities.

ASR 920 supports MPLS, MPLE TE, MP-BGP, 6PE, 6 VPE, LFA, RLFA, L2VPN, L3VPN,
BGP PIC and some segment routing. Those are mostly the protocols what you
would see in a SP routing world space today. On the layer 2 we support
G.8032. REP, MST, CFM and Y1731.


Thanks,
