Dear All ,

thanks for the input ... the last two options did work ... and i can
prety well understand the logic.

But Peter....the option u mentioned is not still working....
What is loopback X???? if i configure any other loopback interface
other than my lo0(MPGP one) ... the MDT tunnel goes down...

is it possible that i can make my MDT source as my vrf ABC
interface??? i dont think soo..

A little explanation from ur side will really help...

thanks.....
