    Routing Instances for VPNs

    To implement Layer 3 VPNs in the JUNOS Software, you configure one routing instance for each VPN. You configure the routing instances on PE routers only. Each VPN routing instance consists of the following components:

    • VRF table—On each PE router, you configure one VRF table for each VPN.
    • Set of interfaces that use the VRF table—The logical interface to each directly connected CE router must be associated with a VRF table. You can associate more than one interface with the same VRF table if more than one CE router in a VPN is directly connected to the PE router.
    • Policy rules—These control the import of routes into and the export of routes from the VRF table.
    • One or more routing protocols that install routes from CE routers into the VRF table—You can use the BGP, OSPF, and RIP routing protocols, and you can use static routes.
