MPLS-VPN topology using OSPF as PE-CE (routing-instance / VRF of vpn-b)
NOTE: BACKDOOR LINK IS DOWN FOR PURPOSES OF THIS
I am trying to understand how/why the routes for directly attached PE-CE interfaces in vpn-b are being sent as Type 5 routes via MP-BGP.
Where do I see the OSPF Extended attributes in the Route Reflector? I can see it clearly on the Last Hop PE but I can't see it in the Route Reflector. And how did it go from a Type 2 to a Type 5? I have NOT set a domain-id which according to Juniper doco means it should come through as a Type 3 summary (which is what I was expecting).
Note that routes coming from the CE e.g. loopbacks are coming through has Type 3 as expected.
Here is a trace of all the route states from the CE way back to the advertising PE.

404 error on your link, but it sounds like you know what you're talking about
a.) Fixed the link, thx
b.) Does this line in the Route Reflector indicate that the Type 2 LSA (the :2:) has been preserved @ this point? i.e. it is the egress PE that is choosing to send it into OSPF as a Type 5?
"10.0.0.7:2:172.17.1.0/30"
I think if you look into OSPF superbackbone it might be what your looking for.
Your issue sounds similar to something I was taught on a course and that was the answer, whether your issue is the same I don't know.
Yes the OSPF forms the superbackbone.
All Type 1, 2 and 3 LSAs will enter MP-BGP, then be re-advertised as Type 3 if the domain ID matches (or is missing). If the domain ID mismatches, it always gets sent as a Type 5.
The issue I have is: I don't have a domain ID set, which should default to null, which should result in Type 3s.
Routes advertised into OSPF by the CEs DO get the 'correct' treatment.
Its the /30s that are the PE VRF interface subnets that do not.... which doesn't add up in theory.
Also I am not 100% sure I am reading the RR vpnv4 routes correctly, can someone confirm whether this line in JunOS is the OSPF extended community? (Its a lot clearer in IOS).
10.0.0.7:2:172.17.1.0/30 <--- with the :2: being LSA type 2?
Are you sure the domain-id defaults to null? I thought it didn't on a PE router...
That looks like the RD to me but Im not familiar with JUNOS so Im going on my general knowledge.
Your correct on the the instance-ID must match for it to pass as type-3. For shiggles did you try setting an instance-ID?
Also are you running the same area between all three VPN-B routers? do both routes in question sit in the same area?
Where is Mellowd when we need him?
Good pickup That1guy, it is the RD. In the bgp.l3vpn table (i.e. show ip bgp vpnv4) that's pretty clear
Quotebgp.l3vpn.0: 17 destinations, 17 routes (17 active, 0 holddown, 0 hidden)
+ = Active Route, - = Last Active, * = Both
10.0.0.7:1:172.16.1.0/30

AS path: I

Same OSPF area 0. I was actually going to lab up sham-link, but I got sidetracked on this goodie. Its certainly given me good practice crawling the various MPLS/VRF layers the JunOS way. I'm still struggling to see the OSPF extended community in the BGP info, where its so clear and obvious in IOS.
I did try to set the instance-ID but I'm afraid my Juniper import/export knowledge is not as good as I thought! That's what I'm working on now.
lol yeah Mellow would probably know this in a snap, that crazy double CCIE/JNCIE-SP!!!! I've actually been using his Juniper SP articles.
It gets worse.
I moved from using vrf-target (the auto import/export way) to manual import/export policies (which I had to lab anyway later lol so I could practice VRF route leaking).
Using manual policies I was able to set the domain ID and have it clearly visible... but its still coming through my CEs as External. I guess this is because I'm explicitly exporting the route? :angry:
It would also appear that export policies don't work if using vrf-target method. :angry: Thanks JNCIS-SP textbook for mentioning this!!!
Finally, another side effect of NOT using vrf-target is that ethernet interfaces do not get advertised into routing and you have to explicitly export them in policy and use a special command vrf-table-label.....
And just when I was loving the JunOS way they start hammering me with these WTF curveballs....
Oh well, at least IRL, nobody allows OSPF PE-CE peering... I've only ever seen it once in production. BGP or GTFO (So looking forwards to having to learn EIGRP PE-CE quirks for CCIEv5 syllabus!)
What extended communities do you actually see on the MP-BGP routes?
All all devices in the network Juniper btw?
Hiya Mellow!
All vSRXs in ESXi.
Question for you SP expertise - given that Juniper doesn't auto export the VRF interfaces if multi-access (FE/GE), and that you need to explicitly export the directly connected interface even with vrf-table-label - whats standard practice in SP land? Do you guys also explicitly export the protocol direct in your export maps?
Also was wondering how the eff does it work if you DON'T export the direct protocol? As in Next Hop resolution once it gets to the egress PE??? (I'm going to turn off the directly connected exports now and see) EDIT It appears that the ingress PE router is using next hop self - when I examine a CE1 router /32 loopback advertised into PE1 vpn-a, the route in the bgp.l3vpn table has the PE1 RID as the next hop - is this something I missed during my reading?

here is the exact route for PE1's PE-CE /30 coming into the egress PE3 now that I'm using vrf import/export and adding domain-id community.
Note everything pings and traces as expected, its just understanding why I'm getting the OSPF Type 5 instead of the 3 as expected. LIke I said I do suspect in this configuration it is because the interface route is being explicitly exported into OSPF.

It's certainly a quirk in Juniper land.
With IOS, you redistribute from OSPF into BGP and vice-versa. If you use the command vrf-target, Junos is doing some automatic redistribution for you. It's not entirely clear how it does it though, i.e. there are no knobs to turn.
But take a look at this. I labbed it up myself and I'm using 1.1.1.1/32 and 2.2.2.2/32 as loopbacks on the CE kit. I'm using the 10/8 range as the PE-CE links. If I look at the routes on the RR, there is something specific I see. Note the CE's database first:

Here the router sees it's own type1 as well as the PE's type1. There is also a type2 for the segment and a type3 to get to 2.2.2.2/32 - Like you, I also see the remote pe-ce link as external.
I go over it a bit over here (https://mellowd.co.uk/ccie/?p=4697 (https://mellowd.co.uk/ccie/?p=4697)) but there is more than just one thing that is checked. Specifically non-matching domain ids will convert all internal and summaries to type5. However existing type5s remain as type5s.
But how does an MP-BGP router know what type a prefix is to begin with? There is another field that determines that, and that's where I see the difference.
Back on the route-reflector checking both vpnv4 routes check the difference here:
1:1:2.2.2.2/32 (1 entry, 0 announced)
Communities: target:1:1 rte-type:0.0.0.0:1:0
1:1:10.0.0.2/31 (1 entry, 0 announced)
Communities: target:1:1
Junos ensures 2.2.2.2/32 is advertised as a 'type1 lsa'. 10.0.0.2/31 has no such community. Seems to me that Junos makes no assumptions here and absence of that community means don't assume it's internal.
The annoying thing is that the vrt-target command gives you no options to add or subtract stuff when using it. It's an 'automatic' knob.
As you rightly stated, if you export directly connected, Junos assumes you're redistributing an external route and it becomes a type5. In IOS, redistributing OSPF ensures the pe-ce OSPF link is in MP-BGP, not so in Junos.
As for how I do this with customers, the last carrier I worked for we only did managed solutions. i.e. we controlled the CE as well. For this reason we didn't bother putting the pe-ce link inside the customers network. We used that for p2p testing only. The prefixes that sat behind the router were the only ones redistributed into the VPN

Awesome, thanks for confirming. So ruling out vrf-target due to lack of options, say we're manually importing/exporting, what are out options?
I tried to manually tag that rte-type community but its rejected. Morever that's a terrible solution, you'd need to match only Type 1/2/3, manually specify the area etc... is this just a limitation of doing OSPF PE-CE on JunOS?
BTW been reading your articles including that one, thanks for taking the time! Going for JNCIS-SP shortly and your articles (and explanation above!) have always been a great help.

If I ever get sued and forced to change the name of the website, I'll change it to mellowd-forums.com.
should probably get that now and forward it here. :joy:
or someone else will grab it...

Pretty much. OSPF as PE-CE is one of things needed for lab, but hardly done in real life. This is a job for BGP. It doesn't really break anything, but it's odd to see a route to an internal prefix reached through interface learned through a type 5 :O
