Technical Summary

The initial BGP/MPLS IP VPN specification enabled PE routers to learn routes
within customer sites through static routing, or through a dynamic routing
protocol instantiated on the PE-CE link.

Specifically, RFC4364 includes support for dynamic routing protocols such as
BGP, RIP, and OSPFv2. The OSPFv2 as the Provider/Customer Edge Protocol for
BGP/MPLS IP Virtual Private Networks specification (RFC4577) further updates the
operation of OSPFv2 as the PE-CE routing protocol by detailing additional
extensions to enable intra-domain routing connectivity between OSPFv2-based
customer sites.

This document defines the mechanisms required to enable the operation of OSPFv3
as the PE-CE Routing Protocol in BGP MPLS/IP VPNs.  In doing so, it reuses, and
extends where necessary, the "BGP/MPLS IP VPN" method for IPv6 VPNs defined in
RFC4659, and OSPFv2 as the PE-CE routing protocol defined in RFC4577.  This
document also includes the specifications for maintaining intra-domain routing
connectivity between OSPFv3-based customer sites across a SP backbone.

Working Group Summary

This document is a product of L3VPN WG. The document underwent WG Last Calls in
both the L3VPN and OSPF WGs.

Document Quality

There is at least one known implementation of this protocol.
