Router 2
Route Leaking VRFs
Static routes can be used to redistribute routes between non-default to default/non-default VRF and vice-versa.
You can configure route leaking between two VRFs using the following command: ip route vrf x.x.x.x s.s.s.s
nh.nh.nh.nh vrf default.
This command indicates that packets that are destined to x.x.x.x/s.s.s.s are reachable through nh.nh.nh.nh in
the default VRF table. Meaning, the routes to x.x.x.x/s.s.s.s are leaked from the default VRF routing table into the
non-default VRF routing table.
NOTE:
The Dell EMC Networking OS supports route leaking only for transit traffic. If the system receives a packet on one
VRF which is destined to another VRF, the packet is routed to that destination. If the system receives a packet on one VRF
which is destined to the same device (such as a ping), they system drops the packet.
The following example illustrates how route leaking between two VRFs can be performed:
interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/9/1
ip vrf forwarding VRF1
ip address 120.0.0.1/24
interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/10/1
ip vrf forwarding VRF2
ip address 140.0.0.1/24
ip route vrf VRF1 20.0.0.0/16 140.0.0.2 vrf VRF2
ip route vrf VRF2 40.0.0.0/16 120.0.0.2 vrf VRF1
Dynamic Route Leaking
Route Leaking is a powerful feature that enables communication between isolated (virtual) routing domains by segregating and
sharing a set of services such as VOIP, Video, and so on that are available on one routing domain with other virtual domains.
Inter-VRF Route Leaking enables a VRF to leak or export routes that are present in its RTM to one or more VRFs.
