Understanding VRF-lite

Route limiting per VRF instance

In a multi-VRF network environment, it may be problematic if one VRF injects too many routes and fills up the hardware forwarding table (FIB) on the device, which can affect other VRFs as well as the global VRF. For more information see "Route Limits" on page 84

VRF-aware utilities within AW+

Some network utility and management features such as ping, traceroute, telnet client, SSH client, and tcpdump are supported in a VRF aware manner.
