Hello Sylvia,

In this scenario, this would be a RR, speaking to terminating PE, in which
you would use the BGP statement under the vpn4 family:

Next-hop-unchanged.

Subject: Advertising Routes learnt from PE to PE


Hi,
WIll a PE router ever advertise a route it learns from another PE router to
some other PE router.
I dont think it will ever do that as all the PE routers are IBGP peers and
would generally be in
full mesh.

Is there any case when this might happen .. i.e. a PE router advertises a
Route learnt from one PE
to another PE. How can one do that .. because IMHO the label that will be
advertised by the former
PE router will be for the PE router to which he sends the UPDATE. How can
this PE router advertise
another PE router the same label?

Moreover, if for some reason he has to .. does he assign a new label and
then advertise?

ANy comments on this would be very helpful!
