Simple VRF-lite configuration examples

Dynamic inter-VRF communication with OSPF routing to external peers

The complete configuration example below shows the key components required to support dynamic inter-VRF communication using BGP, with OSPF routing to external peers.

VRFs red, green and shared are configured. VRFs red and green can access VRF shared, but not each other. OSPF routing is used in VRFs red and green, and these routes are leaked into VRF shared via BGP. The connected routes in VRFs red, green and shared are also redistributed into BGP to be leaked between VRF instances.

There are also three static routes configured in VRF shared to access shared router networks. ACLs and associated route maps and VRF import maps are used to selectively leak routes from VRF shared to VRFs red and green. For example, VRF red will selectively learn routes to VRF shared networks 192.168.30.0/24 and 192.168.33.0/24, and VRF green will selectively learn routes to VRF shared networks192.168.30.0/24 and 192.168.35.0/24.
