MPLS LAB with IPv6/IPv4, VPNv6/VPNv4, Xconnect & inter-VRF routing by Anthony Dean

[tallenglish]

Please find the fillowing LAB, you will need some form of IOU/IOL image for the Cisco routers (I am using i86bi_linux-l3-adventerprisek9-15.5.2T.bin) and I am using Docker image eve-ansible for the PC.

Red VRF has access to the Internet (off CE9-I).
Blue/Green are allowed to see each other and the management networks (off CE10-M).
PC's should be able to ping each other if they are in the same VRF.

There are Xconnect from PE1/PE2 to PE3/PE4 (active + standby) for all CE1-CE6.
The MPLS is VPNv4 and VPNv6 with tunnel support.
Basically this should show off a lot of the MPLS functionality that IOU/IOL can support (and still run on EVE with 4GB RAM).

Have fun with it.
Tony
