Advertising VPN routing informationRouting information exchange has the following four types:1) Between CE and PEA PE router can learn routing information about the CE connected to it through staticroute, RIP (supporting multi-instance), OSPF (supporting multi-instance) or EBGP, andimports it in a vpn-instance.2) Between ingress PE and egress PEThe ingress PE router uses MP-BGP to send information across public network: Itadvertises routing information learned from CE to the egress PE router (with MPLSlabel) and learns the CE routing information learned at the egress PE router.The internal connectivity among the VPN internal nodes is ensured through enablingIGP (for example, RIP and OSPF) or configuring static routes on the PEs.
