HELP! Triyng to Bridge two Networks using MPLS

Fri Apr 19, 2013 2:07 pm

I am trying to bridge two networks but with no success.
I would love to here from experts on what I am doing wrong.

(pc1) 192.168.0.4--->RBSXTG-5HnD-------MPLS---------<RBSXTG-5HnD-----192.168.1.4 (pc2)

Is there a reason you want to use MPLS for this?

You are on your way, but pause and consider the task you wish to accomplish.

Your layer 3/routing is not displayed in your configs, but we will assume this is up ok.

You wish to bridge two LANs for performance, not overlapping subnets.

Consider MPLS apart from VPLS, VPLS simply transports over the label switch path.

Interfaces that participate in forwarding traffic should be a part of your MPLS config. MPLS interface mtu should be 1526 if you intend to use VPLS, there is good documetation regarding the affect that mpls and vpls have on a packet 4 bytes + 4 bytes.

Your MPLS interfaces will not be a part of the bridge interface that your vpls tunnels are attached to.

Your VPLS needs route distiguisher and import and export targets set.

These are different subnets on either side I must guess that routes are configured so 0.0 knows where 1.0 is

Consider the following

[NETA]~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~VPLS~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[NETB] <--VPLS Tunnel on top Net A and B are Islands oblivious to the world below.

(LER)------------(LSR)----------(LSR)---------------(LER) <-- The label switch path that your data and vpls tunnel ride over.

{Rip,OSPF,BGP}****{Rip,OSPF,BGP}**{Rip,OSPF,BGP}****{Rip,OSPF,BGP} <-- The layer 3 connectivity that ties it all together underneath.

I know this is very rudementary, but I'm trying to plant some corn, squash and tomatoes now and do not have MT device nearby to reference, hope this is of some help.

Thanks Skye1
I am new to mikrotik hardware and OS.
Are you suggesting an bride consisting MPLS only?
What would the configuration look like.

You need OSPF configured and enabled in order to get MPLS/VPLS working.

#R1
/interface bridge add name=lobridge
/ip address add address=9.9.9.1/32 interface=lobridge

/routing ospf instance set default router-id=9.9.9.1
/routing ospf instance set redistribute-connected=as-type-1 default
/routing ospf network add area=backbone network=10.10.50.0/29
/routing ospf network add area=backbone network=10.10.50.16/29 
/routing ospf network add area=backbone network=10.10.50.24/29


#R2
/interface bridge add name=lobridge
/ip address add address=9.9.9.2/32 interface=lobridge
/routing ospf instance set default router-id=9.9.9.2
/routing ospf instance set redistribute-connected=as-type-1 default
/routing ospf network add area=backbone network=10.10.50.0/29
/routing ospf network add area=backbone network=10.10.50.8/29

then you configure MPLS
#R1
/mpls ldp set enabled=yes transport-address=9.9.9.1 lsr-id=9.9.9.1
/mpls ldp interface
add interface=ether2
add interface=ether3
add interface=ether4
/mpls interface
set [ find default=yes ] disabled=no interface=all mpls-mtu=1530

#R2
/mpls ldp set enabled=yes transport-address=9.9.9.2 lsr-id=9.9.9.2
/mpls ldp interface
add interface=ether2
add interface=ether3
/mpls interface
set [ find default=yes ] disabled=no interface=all mpls-mtu=1530

this is just an example, you have to configure routing ....
