MPLS campus LAN virtualization and VSS

adalessandro

Level 1

Hello

I'm going to start the evaluation of implementing the virtualization of our campus LAN using MPLS.

We'll get many inter-VLAN routing domains per VRF on the same LAN infrastructure.

The LAN infrastructure is based on C6500 implementing VSS.

Do you have experience with this kind of setup?

Any known/faced issue that might prevent the setup of MPLS on VSS enabled C6500?

Thank you

Best regards,

Andrea

Hello Andrea,

>> Any known/faced issue that might prevent the setup of MPLS on VSS  enabled C6500?

you will need 12.2(33)SXI2 or later  to have MPLS support

Yes, that's already covered. thanks

The document does no address the implementation of VRFs. It's just a light guide on the implementation of VSS.

Thanks in any case for the reply.

Andrea

I am planning to run VSS on a dual PE as well.

I cant find any related configuration docs for this.

any idea?
