Hi all.
I'm tryng to implemente mplsvpls.
Now I have routed network using bgp.
I read about ospf ant it seems to be a better protocol.
But in case of mplsvpls bgp have a list of extensions (autodiscovery and signalling) which could help in a growing network.

what is the most convenient way for vpls+mpls: bgp or ospf ?

thanks

bump?

I think you have to use BGP for this. OSPF is an interior gateway protocol, so you would normally just use this to distribute loopbacks etc between the routers - BGP would carry all customer routes, etc. You might want to look at the guide at http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:MPLSVPLS

my advice is to have both protocols running at same time.

So you can monitor ospf and fine tune it if your network is very huge.
Then when you feel confident you can start use vpls.

Thanks rpingar

Do you mena I must have a completely redundant double protocol bgp+ospf?
And thias is intended for:
1. have a strong overall rip (if bgp or osfp have a problem then...) ?
2. use all bgp features (specially for vpls) and all ospf features (specially for link state) ?

Thanks.
