[j-nsp] BGP Route Reflection and L3VPNs

[Dermot Williams]

Dan et al,

Yeah, turns out the problem we were having was due to a policy dropping
routes with private ASNs. Pretty dumb really, but you live and learn!

Probably doesn't help that I misread this tidbit from the docs:
"Note: BGP route reflection is not supported for VPN routing and
forwarding (VRF) routing instances."

Regards,

Dermot

I'd have to say that's definitely incorrect.

As long as the VPNv4 NLRI is configured between the two peers and
negotiated correctly then the BGP RR will accept VRF routes in VPNv4
route format (route_distinguisher:prefix/mask).

On Juniper routers these routes are stored in the bgp.l3vpn.0 routing
table,  not the inet.0 routing table.
