MPLS Layer 3 VPN PE-CE RIP

In my previous lessons I explained the basics of MPLS L3 VPNs and I explained in detail how to configure it. This time, we are going to configure MPLS VPN PE-CE with RIP as the routing protocol between the customer and service provider.

RIP is a simple routing protocol and easy to implement with MPLS VPN. Here’s the topology we will use:

MPLS L3 VPN PE CE

This is the same topology that I used in my previous examples. Let’s see what the configuration is like…

Configuration

IGP and LDP

We will start with the configuration of the service provider network, we’ll have to configure an IGP (OSPF) and LDP on the PE1, P and PE2 router. Let’s add some loopbacks that are required for LDP:

This time I used the mpls ldp autoconfig command to automatically enable LDP for
