Configuration example

Figure: Core diversity with parallel NG-MVPN services on parallel IGP instances

In Figure: Core diversity with parallel NG-MVPN services on parallel IGP instances, there are three IGP instances, the default Instance 0, Instance 1, and Instance 2. Each instance binds to its own loopback interface. For Instance 0, it is the systemIP system Interface used as loopback. LDP, RSVP and MP-BGP need to run between the corresponding loopback associated with each instance.

For example, for the blue Instance 2, both MP-BGP and LDP need to be configured to its corresponding loopback loopback2 and the next-hop for BGP MVPN-IP4/IPv6 and the VPN-IPv4/IPv6 need to be loopback2.

From a configuration point of view, the following steps need to be performed:

  1. For MLDP, configure LDP with local-lsr-id with loopback interface of instance 2 loopback2:

    *A:SwSim14>config>router>ldp# info 
    
          interface-parameters
             interface ‟2ROOT” dual-stack
               ipv4
                 local-lsr-id interface-name ‟loopback2”
                  no shutdown
               exit
               no shutdown
             exit
    
  2. Enable the source-address for default auto discover as follows:

    *A:Dut-A>config>service>vprn 2
          mvpn auto-discovery default source-address LOOPBack1
          vrf-export ‟vprnexp100”
    *A:Dut-A>config>service>vprn 3
          mvpn auto-discovery default source-address LOOPBack2
          vrf-export ‟vprnexp101”
    
  3. Define community vprnXXXX for each VPRN using non-default core-instance and define a policy to tag each VPRN with either a blue or red standard community attribute:

    *A:Dut-A>config>router>policy-options# info
            community "vprn2" members "target:70:70"
            community "vprn3" members "target:80:80"
            policy-statement "vprnexp2"
                entry 10
                    from
                       protocol direct
                    exit
                    action accept
                       community add "vprn2" "red"
                    exit
                exit
            policy-statement "vprnexp3"
                entry 10
                    from
                       protocol direct
                    exit
                    action accept
                       community add "vprn3" "blue"
                    exit
                exit
            exit
    
  4. Define a single global BGP policy to change next hop for red/blue MVPNs:

    *A:Dut-A>config>router>policy-options# info
            policy-statement "MVPN_CoreDiversity_Exp"
                entry 10
                    from
                       community "red"
                    exit
                    to
                       protocol bgp-vpn
                    exit
                    action accept
                         next-hop loopback1
                    exit
                exit
                entry 20
                    from
                       community "blue"
                    exit
                    to
                       protocol bgp-vpn
                    exit
                    action accept
                         next-hop loopback2
                    exit
                exit
            exit
    
  5. Configure BGP default MVPN export in the group as required:

    configure router bgp group "mvpn" export "MVPN_CoreDiveristy_Exp"
    
  6. Configure each VPRN to use correct IGP source address and correct VRF export policy:

    *A:Dut-A>config>service>vprn 2
          mvpn auto-discovery default source-address loopback1
          vrf-export "vprnexp2"
    *A:Dut-A>config>service>vprn 3
          mvpn auto-discovery default source-address loopback2
          vrf-export "vprnexp3"
