AFAIK, Cisco routers could have only 32 IP protocol instances due to
internal limit on descriptor blocks. One block is assigned to handle
connected routes, one for static, one for BGP, one for RIP and one for each
OSPF instance. To view descriptor block allocation do "show ip protocols
summary" on the router. Ivan Pepelnjak explained this very well in "MPLS/VPN
Architectures" (I think it's Vol.II but I may be mistaken). HTH, Cheers Alex

Dear All,

Does anyone know if there is any restriction to the number of OSPF VPN
processes in a MPLS VPN ?

Thanks in advance.
