OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Feature History Release Modification 12.2(8)T This feature was introduced. This document describes how to configure and use a sham-link to connect Virtual Private Network (VPN) client sites that run the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol and share backdoor OSPF links in a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) VPN configuration. This document includes the following sections: • Feature Overview, page 1 • Supported Platforms, page 8 • Supported Standards, MIBs, and RFCs, page 10 • Prerequisites, page 10 • Configuration Tasks, page 10 • Configuration Examples, page 12 • Command Reference, page 12 • Glossary, page 16 Feature Overview Using OSPF in PE-CE Router Connections In an MPLS VPN configuration, the OSPF protocol is one way you can connect customer edge (CE) routers to service provider edge (PE) routers in the VPN backbone. OSPF is often used by customers that run OSPF as their intrasite routing protocol, subscribe to a VPN service, and want to exchange routing information between their sites using OSPF (during migration or on a permanent basis) over an MPLS VPN backbone. Figure 1 shows an example of how VPN client sites that run OSPF can connect over an MPLS VPN backbone. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 1 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Feature Overview Figure 1 OSPF Connectivity Between VPN Client Sites and an MPLS VPN Backbone Area 1 Area 1 MPLS VPN Superbackbone Area 2 Area 0 Area 0 70390 Area 3 When OSPF is used to connect PE and CE routers, all routing information learned from a VPN site is placed in the VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instance associated with the incoming interface. The PE routers that attach to the VPN use the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) to distribute VPN routes to each other. A CE router can then learn the routes to other sites in the VPN by peering with its attached PE router. The MPLS VPN superbackbone provides an additional level of routing hierarchy to interconnect the VPN sites running OSPF. When OSPF routes are propagated over the MPLS VPN backbone, additional information about the prefix in the form of BGP extended communities (route type, domain ID extended communities) is appended to the BGP update. This community information is used by the receiving PE router to decide the type of link-state advertisement (LSA) to be generated when the BGP route is redistributed to the OSPF PE-CE process. In this way, internal OSPF routes that belong to the same VPN and are advertised over the VPN backbone are seen as interarea routes on the remote sites. For basic information about how to configure an MPLS VPN, refer to: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/120newft/120t/120t5/vpn.htm Using a Sham-Link to Correct OSPF Backdoor Routing Although OSPF PE-CE connections assume that the only path between two client sites is across the MPLS VPN backbone, backdoor paths between VPN sites (shown in grey in Figure 2) may exist. If these sites belong to the same OSPF area, the path over a backdoor link will always be selected because OSPF prefers intraarea paths to interarea paths. (PE routers advertise OSPF routes learned over the VPN backbone as interarea paths.) For this reason, OSPF backdoor links between VPN sites must be taken into account so that routing is performed based on policy. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 2 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Feature Overview Figure 2 Backdoor Paths Between OSPF Client Sites MPLS VPN Backbone PE-1 10.3.1.6 Area 1 Vienna 10.3.1.15 Winchester 10.3.1.7 Area 1 70391 PE-3 10.3.1.2 Brighton PE-2 10.3.1.5 Stockholm 10.3.1.3 Area 1 For example, Figure 2 shows three client sites, each with backdoor links. Because each site runs OSPF within the same Area 1 configuration, all routing between the three sites follows the intraarea path across the backdoor links, rather than over the MPLS VPN backbone. The following example shows BGP routing table entries for the prefix 10.3.1.7/32 in the PE-1 router in Figure 2. This prefix is the loopback interface of the Winchester CE router. As shown in bold in this example, the loopback interface is learned via BGP from PE-2 and PE-3. It is also generated through redistribution into BGP on PE-1. PE-1# show ip bgp vpnv4 all 10.3.1.7 BGP routing table entry for 100:251:10.3.1.7/32, version 58 Paths: (3 available, best #2) Advertised to non peer-group peers: 10.3.1.2 10.3.1.5 Local 10.3.1.5 (metric 30) from 10.3.1.5 (10.3.1.5) Origin incomplete, metric 22, localpref 100, valid, internal Extended Community: RT:1:793 OSPF DOMAIN ID:0.0.0.100 OSPF RT:1:2:0 OSPF 2 Local 10.2.1.38 from 0.0.0.0 (10.3.1.6) Origin incomplete, metric 86, localpref 100, weight 32768, valid, sourced, best Extended Community: RT:1:793 OSPF DOMAIN ID:0.0.0.100 OSPF RT:1:2:0 OSPF 2 Local 10.3.1.2 (metric 30) from 10.3.1.2 (10.3.1.2) Origin incomplete, metric 11, localpref 100, valid, internal Extended Community: RT:1:793 OSPF DOMAIN ID:0.0.0.100 OSPF RT:1:2:0 OSPF 2 Within BGP, the locally generated route (10.2.1.38) is considered to be the best route. However, as shown in bold in the next example, the VRF routing table shows that the selected path is learned via OSPF with a next hop of 10.2.1.38, which is the Vienna CE router. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 3 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Feature Overview PE-1# show ip route vrf ospf 10.3.1.7 Routing entry for 10.3.1.7/32 Known via "ospf 100", distance 110, metric 86, type intra area Redistributing via bgp 215 Advertised by bgp 215 Last update from 10.2.1.38 on Serial0/0/0, 00:00:17 ago Routing Descriptor Blocks: * 10.2.1.38, from 10.3.1.7, 00:00:17 ago, via Serial0/0/0 Route metric is 86, traffic share count is 1 This path is selected because: • The OSPF intra-area path is preferred over the interarea path (over the MPLS VPN backbone) generated by the PE-1 router. • OSPF has a lower administrative distance (AD) than internal BGP (BGP running between routers in the same autonomous system). If the backdoor links between sites are used only for backup purposes and do not participate in the VPN service, then the default route selection shown in the preceding example is not acceptable. To reestablish the desired path selection over the MPLS VPN backbone, you must create an additional OSPF intra-area (logical) link between ingress and egress VRFs on the relevant PE routers. This link is called a sham-link. A sham-link is required between any two VPN sites that belong to the same OSPF area and share an OSPF backdoor link. If no backdoor link exists between the sites, no sham-link is required. Figure 3 shows a sample sham-link between PE-1 and PE-2. A cost is configured with each sham-link and is used to decide whether traffic will be sent over the backdoor path or the sham-link path. When a sham-link is configured between PE routers, the PEs can populate the VRF routing table with the OSPF routes learned over the sham-link. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 4 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Feature Overview Figure 3 Using a Sham-Link Between PE Routers to Connect OSPF Client Sites MPLS VPN Backbone Winchester 10.3.1.7 Net=10.3.1.7 Type-1 LSA Brighton PE-3 10.3.1.2 Net=10.3.1.7 MP-BGP Route-type 1:2:0 PE-1 10.3.1.6 Area 1 Area 1 70392 Net=10.3.1.7 Route-type 1:2:0 Net=10.3.1.7 Sham-link Type-1 LSA PE-2 10.3.1.5 Vienna 10.3.1.15 Net=10.3.1.7 Type-1 LSA Stockholm 10.3.1.3 Area 1 Because the sham-link is seen as an intra-area link between PE routers, an OSPF adjacency is created and database exchange (for the particular OSPF process) occurs across the link. The PE router can then flood LSAs between sites from across the MPLS VPN backbone. As a result, the desired intra-area connectivity is created. The section, “Creating a Sham-Link”, describes how to configure a sham-link between two PE routers. For more information about how to configure OSPF, refer to: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/12cgcr/np1_c/1cprt1/1cospf.htm Sham-Link Configuration Example The example in this section is designed to show how a sham-link is used only to affect the OSPF intra-area path selection of the PE and CE routers. The PE router also uses the information received from MP-BGP to set the outgoing label stack of incoming packets, and to decide to which egress PE router to label switch the packets. Figure 4 shows a sample MPLS VPN topology in which a sham-link configuration is necessary. A VPN client has three sites, each with a backdoor link. Two sham-links have been configured, one between PE-1 and PE-2, and another between PE-2 and PE-3. A sham-link between PE-1 and PE-3 is not necessary in this configuration because the Vienna and Winchester sites do not share a backdoor link. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 5 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Feature Overview Figure 4 Sham-Link Example MPLS VPN Backbone PE-1 10.3.1.6 Area 1 PE-3 10.3.1.2 Sham-link Winchester 10.3.1.7 Area 1 Brighton 70393 Sham-link PE-2 10.3.1.5 Stockholm 10.3.1.3 Vienna 10.3.1.15 Area 1 The following example shows the forwarding that occurs between sites from the standpoint of how PE-1 views the 10.3.1.7/32 prefix, the loopback1 interface of the Winchester CE router in Figure 4.

The reason the OSPF route is not redistributed to BGP on the PE is because the other end of the sham-link already redistributed the route to BGP and there is no need for duplication. The OSPF sham-link is used only to influence intra-area path selection. When sending traffic to a particular destination, the PE router uses the MP-BGP forwarding information. PE-1# show ip bgp vpnv4 all tag | begin 10.3.1.7 10.3.1.7/32 10.3.1.2 notag/38 PE-1# show tag-switching forwarding 10.3.1.2 Local Outgoing Prefix Bytes tag tag tag or VC or Tunnel Id switched 31 42 10.3.1.2/32 0 Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 6 Outgoing interface PO3/0/0 Next Hop point2point OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Feature Overview PE-1# show ip cef vrf ospf 10.3.1.7 10.3.1.7/32, version 73, epoch 0, cached adjacency to POS3/0/0 0 packets, 0 bytes tag information set local tag: VPN-route-head fast tag rewrite with PO3/0/0, point2point, tags imposed: {42 38} via 10.3.1.2, 0 dependencies, recursive next hop 10.1.1.17, POS3/0/0 via 10.3.1.2/32 valid cached adjacency tag rewrite with PO3/0/0, point2point, tags imposed: {42 38} If a prefix is learned across the sham-link and the path via the sham-link is selected as the best, the PE router does not generate an MP-BGP update for the prefix. It is not possible to route traffic from one sham-link over another sham-link. In the following example, PE-2 shows how an MP-BGP update for the prefix is not generated. Although 10.3.1.7/32 has been learned via OSPF across the sham-link as shown in bold, no local generation of a route into BGP is performed. The only entry within the BGP table is the MP-BGP update received from PE-3 (the egress PE router for the 10.3.1.7/32 prefix).

Benefits Client Site Connection Across the MPLS VPN Backbone A sham-link overcomes the OSPF default behavior for selecting an intra-area backdoor route between VPN sites instead of an interarea (PE-to-PE) route. A sham-link ensures that OSPF client sites that share a backdoor link can communicate over the MPLS VPN backbone and participate in VPN services. Flexible Routing in an MPLS VPN Configuration In an MPLS VPN configuration, the OSPF cost configured with a sham-link allows you to decide if OSPF client site traffic will be routed over a backdoor link or through the VPN backbone. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 7 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Supported Platforms Restrictions When OSPF is used as a protocol between PE and CE routers, the OSPF metric is preserved when routes are advertised over the VPN backbone. The metric is used on the remote PE routers to select the correct route. For this reason, you should not modify the metric value when OSPF is redistributed to BGP, and when BGP is redistributed to OSPF. If you modify the metric value, routing loops may occur.

Prerequisites Before you can configure a sham-link in an MPLS VPN, you must first enable OSPF as follows: • Create an OSPF routing process. • Specify the range of IP addresses to be associated with the routing process. • Assign area IDs to be associated with the range of IP addresses. For more information on these OSPF configuration procedures, go to: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fiprrp_r/1rfospf.htm Configuration Tasks See the following sections for configuration tasks for the sham-link feature. Each task in the list is identified as either required or optional. • Creating a Sham-Link (required) • Verifying Sham-Link Creation (optional) Creating a Sham-Link Before you create a sham-link between PE routers in an MPLS VPN, you must: • Configure a separate /32 address on the remote PE so that OSPF packets can be sent over the VPN backbone to the remote end of the sham-link. The /32 address must meet the following criteria: – Belong to a VRF. – Not be advertised by OSPF. – Be advertised by BGP. You can use the /32 address for other sham-links. • Associate the sham-link with an existing OSPF area. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 10 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Configuration Tasks To create a sham-link, use the following commands starting in EXEC mode: Command Purpose Step 1 Router1# configure terminal Enters global configuration mode on the first PE router.

Valid values are from 1 to 65535. Defaults No default behavior or values. Command Modes Global configuration Command History Release Modification 12.2(8)T This command was introduced. Usage Guidelines In the MPLS VPN environment, several VPN client sites can be connected in the same OSPF area. If these sites are connected over a backdoor link in addition to the VPN backbone, all traffic passes over the backdoor link instead of over the VPN backbone. OSPF always selects intra-area routes over interarea (external) routes. To correct this default OSPF behavior in an MPLS VPN, use the area sham-link cost command to configure a sham-link between two PEs to connect the sites through the MPLS VPN backbone. A sham-link represents an intra-area (unnumbered point-to-point) connection between PEs. All other routers in the area see the sham-link and use it to calculate intra-area shortest path first (SPF) routes to the remote site. Configure the source and destination addresses of the sham-link as a host route mask (255.255.255.255) on the PE routers that serve as the endpoints of the sham-link. The source and destination IP addresses must belong to the VRF and be advertised by Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) to remote PE routers. The sham-link endpoint addresses should not be advertised by OSPF. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 13 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN area sham-link cost Examples The following example shows how to configure a sham-link between two PE routers in an MPLS VPN backbone by using the area sham-link cost command on each router: Router1(config)# interface loopback 55 Router1(config-if)# ip vrf forwarding v1 Router1(config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 !

Defaults No default behavior or values. Command Modes EXEC Command History Release Modification 12.2(8)T This command was introduced. Usage Guidelines Use this command to display Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) information about the sham-links configured on a PE router. Examples The following example shows sample output from the show ip ospf sham-links command for a PE router in the VPN backbone: Router1# show ip ospf sham-links Sham Link OSPF_SL0 to address 10.44.0.1 is up Area 120 source address 10.0.0.1 Run as demand circuit DoNotAge LSA allowed., Cost of using 1 Transmit Delay is 1 sec, State POINT_TO_POINT, Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5 Hello due in 00:00:09 Adjacency State FULL (Hello suppressed) Index 2/2, retransmission queue length 0, number of retransmission 27 First 0x0(0)/0x0(0) Next 0x0(0)/0x0(0) Last retransmission scan length is 0, maximum is 2 Last retransmission scan time is 0 msec, maximum is 0 msec Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 15 OSPF Sham-Link Support for MPLS VPN Glossary Glossary BGP—Border Gateway Protocol. Interdomain routing protocol that exchanges reachability information with other BGP systems. It is defined in RFC 1163. CE router—customer edge router. A router that is part of a customer network and that interfaces to a provider edge (PE) router. CE routers are not aware of associated VPNs. CEF—Cisco Express Forwarding. An advanced Layer 3 IP switching technology. CEF optimizes network performance and scalability for networks with large and dynamic traffic patterns. OSPF—Open Shortest Path First protocol. IGP—Interior Gateway Protocol. An Internet protocol used to exchange routing information within an autonomous system. Examples of common IGPs include IGRP, OSPF, and RIP. LSA—link-state advertisement. A broadcast packet used by link-state protocols. The LSA contains information about neighbors and path costs and is used by the receiving router to maintain a routing table. MPLS—Multiprotocol Label Switching. Emerging industry standard upon which tag switching is based. PE router—provider edge router. A router that is part of a service provider network connected to a customer edge (CE) router. All VPN processing occurs in the PE router. SPF—shortest path first calculation. VPN—Virtual Private Network. A secure IP-based network that shares resources on one or more physical networks. A VPN contains geographically dispersed sites that can communicate securely over a shared backbone. VRF—VPN routing and forwarding instance. A VRF consists of an IP routing table, a derived forwarding table, a set of interfaces that use the forwarding table, and a set of rules and routing protocols that determine what goes into the forwarding table. In general, a VRF includes the routing information that defines a customer VPN site that is attached to a PE router. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T 16
