[j-nsp] Fw: L2 Circuits accross domains

You should have remote loopbacks also redistributed into LDP (if your 
transport label is from LDP).
In JUNOS, this does not happen by default, you must have LDP egress-policy 
for this to occur. By default, LDP announces only primary lo0.0 IP at .
Absent this, your L2circuits would show OL error (no outgoing label).
Before you ask, this is totally different to CSCO IOS which announces all 
routes (bar BGP ones) as LDP FECs.

Hi Folks,

I have an exsisting L3 / L2 MPLS network with Cisco ASR on the Core as PE 
router and Junper routers as PE router, i have been running l2circuits 
sucessfully for some time now with out any problems using the below configs 
on my PEs, I am running IS-IS as my IGP and BGP

Now I am trying to extend these L2 circuits to anther MPLS Domain where we 
have direct Gigabit fibre connection I am using the same concept and 
establish ospf peering on the ASBR router with the remote ASN and 
redistributed my IGP so my loopbacks are seen by the PEs on both sides of 
the domains and establish ldp peering how ever the l2circuit is not coming 
up any help is appriciated as I have been working on this more than 24hrs 
and think that i am now a bit clouded
