Configuring route related attributes for a VPN instance
VPN routes are controlled and advertised on a PE using the following process:
• When a VPN route learned from a CE gets redistributed into BGP, BGP associates it with a route
target extended community attribute list, which is usually the export target attribute of the VPN
instance associated with the CE.
• The VPN instance determines which routes it can accept and redistribute according to the
import-extcommunity in the route target.
• The VPN instance determines how to change the route target attributes for routes to be advertised
according to the export-extcommunity in the route target.
