Task Remarks
Configuring a tunneling policy for a VPN instance Optional
Configuring an LDP instance Optional
Configuring routing between PE and CE Required
Configuring routing between PEs Required
Configuring routing features for the BGP-VPNv6 subaddress family Optional
Configuration prerequisites
Before configuring basic IPv6 MPLS L3VPN, complete the following tasks:
• Configure an IGP on the PEs and Ps to ensure IP connectivity within the MPLS backbone.
• Configure basic MPLS for the MPLS backbone
• Configure MPLS LDP on PEs and Ps to establish LDP LSPs
Configuring VPN instances
By configuring VPN instances on a PE, you isolate not only VPN routes from public network routes, but
also routes of a VPN from those of another VPN. This feature allows VPN instances to be used in network
scenarios besides MPLS L3VPNs.
All VPN instance configurations are performed on PEs or MCEs.
Creating a VPN instance
A VPN instance is associated with a site. It is a collection of the VPN membership and routing rules of its
associated site. A VPN instance does not necessarily correspond to one VPN.
Follow these steps to create and configure a VPN instance:

Required
A VPN instance takes effect only
after you configure an RD for it.
Configure a description for the
VPN instance
description text
Optional
The description should contain the
VPN instance’s related
information, such as its relationship
with a certain VPN.
Associating a VPN instance with an interface
After creating and configuring a VPN instance, you need to associate the VPN instance with the interface
for connecting the CE. Any LDP-capable interface can be associated with a VPN instance. For
information about LDP-capable interfaces, see the chapter “MPLS basics configuration.”
