Dear All,
I have a small situation here. We are providing an MPLS/VPN solution to a
customer to connect
their 35 sites which are different VPN's to the Data centre site. The
connection to the Data centre,
from the MPLS cloud will carry 35 VPN's. I understand that, normally
VRF-lite is used between the
PE and CE in this situation. The problem I face is that the customer is
taking the MPLS/VPN
service from the ISP and the ISP is not willing to accept the solution with
VRF-lite as they say that,
it will extend their MPLS cloud to the customer side.
Can anyone tell me, if this is actually the case. Running VRF-lite on a
customer site, will it
compromise the ISP's MPLS network. Is there any problem the ISP will face
by running
VRF-lite in this senario. If there is any , what are the recommended
general practices .
Appreciate your valuable inputs.
Regards
Shameen
