Information About MVPNs

You can use an MVPN feature to support multicast over a Layer 3 VPN. IP multicast is used to stream video, voice, and data to an VPN network core.

Historically, point-to-point tunnels were the only way to connect through an enterprise or service provider network. Although such tunneled networks had scalability issues, they were the only means of passing IP multicast traffic through a virtual private network (VPN).

Because Layer 3 VPNs support only unicast traffic connectivity, deploying with a Layer 3 VPN allows operators to offer both unicast and multicast connectivity to Layer 3 VPN customers.

This section includes the following topics:

MVPN Overview

An MVPN allows an operator to configure and support multicast traffic in an MVPN environment. MVPNs support routing and forwarding of multicast packets for each individual virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instance, and it also provides a mechanism to transport VPN multicast packets across the enterprise or service provider backbone. IP multicast is used to stream video, voice, and data to a VPN network core.

A VPN allows network connectivity across a shared infrastructure, such as an Internet Service Provider (ISP). Its function is to provide the same policies and performance as a private network at a reduced cost of ownership.

MVPNs allow an enterprise to transparently interconnect its private network across the network backbone. Using MVPNs to interconnect an enterprise network does not change the way that an enterprise network is administered and it does not change general enterprise connectivity.

MVPN Routing and Forwarding and Multicast Domains

MVPNs introduce multicast routing information to the VPN routing and forwarding table. When a provider edge (PE) router receives multicast data or control packets from a customer edge (CE) router, the router forwards the data or control packets according to the information in the MVPN routing and forwarding (MVRF). MVPNs do not use label switching.

A set of MVRFs that can send multicast traffic to each other constitutes a multicast domain. For example, the multicast domain for a customer that wanted to send certain types of multicast traffic to all global employees would consist of all CE routers that are associated with that enterprise.

Multicast Distribution Trees

MVPNs establish a static default multicast distribution tree (MDT) for each multicast domain. The default MDT defines the path used by PE routers to send multicast data and control messages to every other PE router in the multicast domain.

MVPNs also support the dynamic creation of MDTs for high-bandwidth transmission. Data MDTs are intended for high-bandwidth sources such as full-motion video inside the VPN to ensure optimal traffic forwarding in the VPN core. When the multicast transmission exceeds the defined threshold, the sending PE router creates the data MDT and sends a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) message, which contains information about the data MDT, to all routers on the default MDT. Once every second, the PE router examines the statistics to determine whether a multicast stream has exceeded the data MDT threshold. After a PE router sends the UDP message, it waits 3 more seconds before switching over.

Data MDTs are created for bidirectional routes if you use the mdt data bidir-enable command in that VRF. (Data MDTs are not created for bidirectional customer routes by default.)

In the following example, a service provider has a multicast customer with offices in San Jose, New York, and Dallas. A one-way multicast presentation is occurring in San Jose. The service provider network supports all three sites that are associated with this customer, in addition to the Houston site of a different enterprise customer.

The default MDT for the enterprise customer consists of provider routers P1, P2, and P3 and their associated PE routers. PE4 is not part of the default MDT, because it is associated with a different customer. Figure 32-1 shows that no data flows along the default MDT, because no one outside of San Jose has joined the multicast.

Figure 32-1 Default Multicast Distribution Tree Overview

 

72756.ps

An employee in New York joins the multicast session. The PE router that is associated with the New York site sends a join request that flows across the default MDT for the multicast domain of the customer. PE1, the PE router that is associated with the multicast session source, receives the request. Figure 32-2 depicts that the PE router forwards the request to the CE router that is associated with the multicast source (CE1a).

Figure 32-2 Initializing the Data MDT

 

72757.ps

The CE router (CE1a) begins to send the multicast data to the associated PE router (PE1), which sends the multicast data along the default MDT. Immediately after sending the multicast data, PE1 recognizes that the multicast data exceeds the bandwidth threshold for which a data MDT should be created. Therefore, PE1 creates a data MDT, sends a message to all routers using the default MDT that contains information about the data MDT, and, three seconds later, begins sending the multicast data for that particular stream using the data MDT. Only PE2 has interested receivers for this source, so only PE2 joins the data MDT and receives traffic on it. (If the data MDT had not been configured and only the default MDT had been configured, all the customer sites would have received the traffic even though they were not interested in it.)

PE routers maintain a PIM relationship with other PE routers over the default MDT and a PIM relationship with its directly attached P routers.

Multicast Tunnel Interface

An MVPN routing and forwarding (MVRF), which is created per multicast domain, requires the router to create a tunnel interface from which all MVRF traffic is sourced. A multicast tunnel interface is an interface that the MVRF uses to access the multicast domain. The interface is a conduit that connects an MVRF and the global MVRF. One tunnel interface is created per MVRF.

Benefits of MVPNs

The benefits of MVPNs are as follows:

  • Provides a scalable method to dynamically send information to multiple locations
  • Provides high-speed information delivery
  • Provides connectivity through a shared infrastructure

Information About the BGP Advertisement Method for MVPN Support

This section includes the following topics:

Overview

When you configure the default MDT in a PIM Source Specific Multicast (PIM-SSM) environment rather than a PIM-SM environment, the receiver PE needs information about the source PE and the default MDT. This information is used to send (S, G) joins toward the source PE to build a distribution tree from the source PE without the need for a rendezvous point (RP). The source provider edge (PE) address and default MDT address are sent using the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).

BGP MDT SAFI

BGP MDT SAFI is the BGP advertisement method that is used for MVPNs. In the current release, only IPv4 is supported. MDT SAFI has the following settings:

  • AFI = 1
  • SAFI = 66

In Cisco NX-OS, the source PE address and the MDT address are passed to PIM using BGP MDT SAFI updates. The Route Descriptor (RD) type has changed to RD type 0 and BGP determines the best path for the MDT updates before passing the information to PIM.

You must configure the MDT SAFI address family for BGP neighbors by using the address-family ipv4 mdt command. You must still enable neighbors that do not support the MDT SAFI for the MDT SAFI in the local BGP configuration. Prior to the MDT SAFI, additional BGP configuration from the VPNv4 unicast configuration was not needed to support MVPNs.

Licensing Requirements for MVPNs

Product
License Requirement

Cisco NX-OS

MVPNs require an MPLS license. For a complete explanation of the Cisco NX-OS licensing scheme and how to obtain and apply licenses, see the Cisco NX-OS Licensing Guide.

Prerequisites for MVPNs

Configuring MVPNs has the following prerequisites:

  • Ensure that you have configured MPLS and Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) in your network. All routers in the core, including the PE routers, must be able to support MPLS forwarding. VPNv4 routes are not installed by BGP if labeled paths do not exist for PE source addresses.
  • Ensure that you have installed the correct license for MPLS and any other features you will be using with MPLS.

Guidelines and Limitations for MVPNs

MVPNs have the following configuration guidelines and limitations:

  • Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is not supported on the Multicast Tunnel Interface (MTI).
  • By default, the BGP update source is used as the source of the MVPN tunnel. However, you can use the mdt source to override the BGP update source and provide a different source to the multicast tunnel.
  • Cisco NX-OS Release 5.2(4) and later 5.x releases as well as Cisco NX-OS Release 6.1(1) and later 6.x releases support multicast GRE tunnel interfaces for PE-CE routing with MVPN.
  • In Cisco Nexus 7000 Series, you can have up to 30 seconds of duplication  upon P-PE link flap with default CoPP values. CoPP for RPF failure packets needs to be disabled to reduce the duplication window. By applying the following CoPP profile, duplication window can be reduced.
switch# copp copy profile strict prefix xyz
switch(config)# class-map type control-plane match-any xyz-copp-class-normal
switch(config-cmap)# match exception ip multicast rpf-failure
switch(config-cmap)# match exception ipv6 multicast rpf-failure
switch(config-cmap)# control-plane
switch(config-cp)# service-policy input xyz-copp-policy-strict
switch(config-cp)# end
 

MDT SAFI has the following configuration and limitations guidelines:

  • You must configure the MDT SAFI on all routers that participate in the MVPN operations.
  • Extended communities are needed for VPNv4 interior BGP (iBGP) sessions to carry the connector attribute.

Default Settings for MVPNs

Table 32-1 lists the default settings for MVPN parameters.

1.The default MDT MTU value for Cisco Catalyst 6000 Series switches is 1500 bytes, which is different from the default value of 1376 bytes for Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches. To avoid an interoperability issue (especially when migrating from the Cisco Catalyst 6000 Series switches), make sure to use the appropriate MDT MTU value.

2.Enables data MDTs to be created for bidir customer routes.

3.The receiving PE's do not trigger an (S,G) join toward the source for the MDT routes when default MDT is in PIM ASM mode.

Configuring a Default MDT for a VRF

You can configure a default MDT for a VRF.

The default MDT must be the same that is configured on all routers that belong to the same VPN. The source IP address is the address that you use to source the BGP sessions.

SUMMARY STEPS

1.blank.gif configure terminal

2.blank.gif vrf context vrf-name

3.blank.gif mdt default address

DETAILED STEPS

Command
Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal

 

Example:

switch# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 2

vrf context vrf-name

 

Example:

switch(config)# vrf context vrf1

Sets the VRF context by assigning a VRF name.

Step 3

mdt default address

 

Example:

switch(config-vrf)# mdt default 232.0.0.1

Configures the multicast address range for data MDTs for a VRF as follows:

  • A tunnel interface is created as a result of this command.
  • By default, the destination address of the tunnel header is the address argument.

Enforcing MDT SAFI for a VRF

You can enforce the use of MDT subsequent address family identifiers (SAFI) for a VRF, or you can configure MDT to interoperate with peers that do not support MDT SAFI.

SUMMARY STEPS

1.blank.gif configure terminal

2.blank.gif vrf context vrf-name

3.blank.gif [no] mdt enforce-bgp-mdt-safi

DETAILED STEPS

Command
Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal

 

Example:

switch# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 2

vrf context vrf-name

 

Example:

switch(config)# vrf context vrf1
switch(config-vrf)#

Sets the VRF context by assigning a VRF name.

Step 3

[no] mdt enforce-bgp-mdt-safi

 

Example:

switch(config-vrf)# mdt enforce-bgp-mdt-safi

Enforces the use of MDT SAFI for the specified VRF.

The no form of this command enables MDT to interoperate with peers that do not support MDT SAFI. When the no form is used, initially only the (*,G) entry for the default MDT group is populated if it falls within the Any Source Multicast (ASM) range. Then later, based on traffic, the (S,G) entries are learned like regular ASM routes.

Configuring the MDT Address Family in BGP for MVPNs

You can configure an MDT address family session on PE routers to establish MDT peering sessions for MVPNs.

Use the address-family ipv4 mdt command under neighbor mode to configure an MDT address-family session. MDT address-family sessions are used to pass the source PE address and MDT address to PIM using BGP MDT Subaddress Family Identifier (SAFI) updates.

Prerequisites

Before MVPN peering can be established through an MDT address family, you must configure MPLS in the BGP network and multiprotocol BGP on PE routers that provide VPN services to CE routers.

switch(config)#

Enters global configuration mode.

Step 2

feature bgp as-number

 

Example:

switch(config)# feature bgp 65535

Enters switch configuration mode and creates a BGP routing process.

Step 3

vrf context vrf-name

 

Example:

switch(config)# vrf context vpn1

switch(config-vrf)#

Defines a VPN routing instance identified by vrf-name and enters VRF configuration mode. The vrf-name argument is any case-sensitive, alphanumeric string up to 32 characters.

Step 4

rd route-distinguisher

 

Example:

switch(config-vrf)# rd 1.2:1

Assigns a route distinguisher to the VRF vrf-name. The route-distinguisher argument adds an 8-byte value to an IPv4 prefix to create a VPN IPv4 prefix. You can enter an RD in either of these formats:

  • 16-bit or 32-bit AS number: your 32-bit number, for example, 1.2:3
  • 32-bit IP address: your 16-bit number, for example, 192.0.2.1:1

Step 5

address-family ipv4 unicast

 

Example:

switch(config-vrf)# address-family ipv4 unicast

switch(config-vrf-af)#

Step 6

route-target import route-target-ext-community

 

Example:

switch(config-vrf-af)# route-target import 1.0:1

Specifies a route-target extended community for a VRF. The import keyword imports routing information from the target VPN extended community.

The route-target-ext-community argument adds the route-target extended community attributes to the VRF list of import route-target extended communities. You can enter the route-target-ext-community argument in either of these formats:

  • 16-bit or 32-bit AS number: your 32-bit number, for example, 1.2:3

Step 7

route-target export route-target-ext-community

 

Example:

switch(config-vrf-af)# route-target export 1.0:1

Specifies a route-target extended community for a VRF. The export keyword exports routing information to the target VPN extended community.

The route-target-ext-community argument adds the route-target extended community attributes to the VRF list of export route-target extended communities. You can enter the route-target-ext-community argument in either of these formats:

  • 16-bit or 32-bit AS number: your 32-bit number, for example, 1.2:3
  • 32-bit IP address: your 16-bit number, for example, 192.0.2.1:1

Step 8

router bgp as - number

 

Example:

switch(config)# router bgp 1.1

switch(config-router)#

Configures a BGP routing process and enters router configuration mode. The as-number argument indicates the number of an autonomous system that identifies the router to other BGP routers and tags the routing information passed along. The AS number can be a 16-bit integer or a 32-bit integer in the form of a higher 16-bit decimal number and a lower 16-bit decimal number in xx.xx format.

Enters address family configuration mode for configuring routing sessions, such as BGP, that use standard VPNv4 or VPNv6 address prefixes. The optional unicast keyword specifies VPNv4 or VPNv6 unicast address prefixes.

Step 11

address-family { ipv4 } unicast

 

Example:

switch(config-router-af)# address-family ipv4 unicast

switch(config-router-af)#

Enters address family configuration mode for configuring routing sessions that use standard IPv4 or IPv6 address prefixes.

Step 12

neighbor neighbor-address

 

Example:

switch(config-switch-af)# neighbor 192.168.1.1

Enters neighbor configuration mode.

Step 13

update source interface

 

Example:

switch (config-router-neighbor)# update-source loopback 1

Sets the update source as loopback1.

Step 14

address-family ipv4 mdt

 

Example:

switch(config-router-neighbor)# address-family ipv4 mdt

Enters address family configuration mode to create an IP MDT address family session.

Step 15

address-family vpnv4 [unicast]

 

Example:

switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# address-family vpnv4

switch(config-router-neighbor-af)#

Enters VPNv4 address family configuration mode.

Step 16

send-community extended

 

Example:

switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# send-community extended

Specifies that extended communities attribute should be sent to a BGP neighbor.

Step 17

show bgp { ipv4 } unicast neighbors vrf vrf-name

 

Example:

switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# show bgp ipv4 unicast neighbors vrf vpn1

(Optional) Displays information about BGP neighbors. The vrf-name argument is any case-sensitive, alphanumeric string up to 32 characters.

Step 18

copy running-config startup-config

 

Example:

switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Copies the running configuration to the startup configuration.

Configuring a Data MDT

You can configure a data MDT.

Multicast groups that are used to create the data MDT are dynamically chosen from a pool of configured IP addresses. If the number of streams is greater than the maximum number of data MDTs per VRF per PE, multiple streams share the same data MDT. See Appendix A, “Configuration Limits for Cisco NX-OS MPLS” for information on the maximum supported number of data MDTs per VRF per PE.

Prerequisites

Before configuring a data MDT, you must configure the default MDT on the VRF.
