Hi,

As metioned in the duiagrams the problem is related to
transporting multiple ATM pvcs across the MPLS
backbone. The option chjosen in our case was by using
Kompella draft.

My issue is that is there a better way of povisionin
this setup, in which we require 9 * (n*(n-1)/2) PVC's
between different sites?

e.g assumming just three sites, we will be having 18
pvcs from each site (9 going to each of the othe two
sites). We shall be using unique site-ids for every
circuit.

So, is there an optimal way of doing this? and how can
we makwe it more scalable as we add more sites (means
more PVC end points)?
