(MP-BGP) to OSPF,

Synopsis vrf-lite-capability

no vrf-lite-capability

Operands None

Defaults None

Command Modes OSPF VRF router configuration mode

Description Use this command to disable the down-bit (DN bit) that is set when routes are redistributed from

multiprotocol BGP (MP-BGP) to OSPF. A customer edge (CE) router acts the provider edge (PE)

router in VRF Lite. Because PE routers advertise VPN routes to CE routers with the DN-bit set,

these checks should be disabled in a VRF Lite context. If CE routers receive routes with the DN-bit

set, they discard those routes.

Usage Guidelines Enter no vrf-lite-capability to disable this feature.

Examples

switch# configure

switch(config)# rbridge-id 5
