Pete's faceI've run into some interesting situations in working with customer VPNs. I am hoping a couple of them might be of general interest, and so will discuss them in this blog / article.

Configuring the Customer Side of an MPLS VPN WAN, Part 1

Posted by: Pete Welcher on Feb 18, 2010

Pete's faceI've recently been doing a lot of consulting work involving variations on a common theme. The general theme is how do I configure my routers to work with the MPLS VPN service I have bought or am about to buy from Provider X. If the service is to be your sole WAN connection, there's little problem or complexity. Do get the carrier to hand routes off to you in your IGP, unless you happen to want EBGP in your life. If you are going to have two WAN connections, well, things can get more interesting. Which is what this article is about.
