mpls vpn question - pe to ce protocol is OSPF

Hey yall, ;-)

I hope this email finds you doing well.

Labed up a scenario and have a quick question about OSPF routes on either
CE. They show as IA.

On each PE, I have the same process number and the same domain-id is listed
in the show ip ospf 2 command (I am using process number 2 for my vrf). I
know this would show an E2 route ... but just the same, the configs are
identical. Also ping and everything works fine across the MPLS backbone.

Why would I get IA and not an 'O' ? The little research I did makes this
appear "it is what it is".

Back when I used to actually work w/ MPLS, I forgot if this was ever an
issue ... humm ... don't remember ever being worried about this.

Any thoughts?

I am going to be moving on to EIGRP or RIP tonight, but if anyone has any
thoughts or comments I would love to hear them. Kindest regards team,
