RE: extend VLAN (i.e. same broadcast domain) using VRF-Lite

If end-to-end switching is possible, use 802.1Q tunnel, otherwise L2TPv3
tunnel between R1 and R3 (xconnect, etc..)

Subject: extend VLAN (i.e. same broadcast domain) using VRF-Lite

hi gurus,

is there anyway to extend VLAN (same broadcast domain over layer 3 network)
using VRF-Lite ?

e.g.

Host1 ----- SW1 ----- R1 ------ R3 ------ SW2 ------- Host2

In above simple network ....
If I need to have same VLAN (e.g. VLAN 100) for both Host1 and Host2 ....
is it possible using VRF-Lite ?
Is it depend on SW1/SW2's L3 capability ?
What are the possible ways to accomplish this ?

thankx,
nahskur
