Re: MPLS VPN Question

Now I am! I didn't know you had to tell it what vrf to use but after
thinking about it that's totally logical. Thank you for the quick fix!
Ben - You were right, I meant to type "vrf on the PE router".

This was my first time configuring mpls.. It's fun. Thanks to everyone
with the responses.. I'll try harder to stump you next time.
