Re: MPLS VPN Question

Scott

As Gaurav said have u pinged with VRF and its correct name

ping vrf <VRF NAME> customer physical IP Address

As soon as u configure VRF inside PE interface. Its starts to build a
separate RIB for Each and every unique vrf.

Virtual Routing and Forwarding instance will be created to separate various
other customer traffic.
