Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
domain-id: Specifies an OSPF domain ID in one of the following formats:
•Integer, in the range of 0 to 4294967295. For example, 1.
•Dotted decimal notation. For example, 0.0.0.1.
•Dotted decimal notation:16-bit user-defined number in the range of 0 to 65535. For example,
0.0.0.1:512.
secondary: Specifies the domain ID as secondary. Without this keyword, the domain ID is primary.

7
Usage guidelines
When you redistribute OSPF routes into BGP on the MCE, BGP adds the configured OSPF domain ID to
the redistributed BGP VPN routes as a BGP extended community attribute and advertises the routes to the
BGP peer. When you redistribute the BGP VPN routes into OSPF on the BGP peer, OSPF uses the domain
ID to determine whether the routes belong to the same OSPF routing domain. If the domain ID is the same
and the routes are intra-area or inter-area routes, OSPF advertises these routes in Type-3 LSAs. If the
domain ID is the same but the routes are not intra-area or inter-area routes, OSPF advertises these routes
in Type-5 or Type-7 LSAs. If the domain ID is different, OSPF advertises the routes in Type-5 or Type-7
LSAs.
With no parameter specified, the undo domain-id command deletes all domain IDs.
Examples
# Configure the OSPF domain ID as 234 for VPN instance vpn1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ospf 100 vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-ospf-100] domain-id 234
export route-policy
Use export route-policy to apply a routing policy to filter outgoing routes for the VPN instance. Such a
routing policy is referred to as an export routing policy.
Use undo export route-policy to remove the application.
Syntax
export route-policy route-policy
undo export route-policy
Default
No routing policy is applied to filter the routes to be advertised.
Views
VPN instance view, IPv4 VPN view, IPv6 VPN view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
route-policy: Specifies the name of a routing policy, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 63 characters.
Usage guidelines
Use this command to apply a routing policy to a VPN instance for more precise and flexible route
advertisement of the VPN instance. When the device advertises routes of the VPN instance, it filters the
advertised routes and modifies attributes for the advertised routes according to the specified routing
policy.
If you execute this command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.
A routing policy specified in VPN instance view applies to both the IPv4 VPN and IPv6 VPN. A routing
policy specified in IPv4 VPN view applies only to the IPv4 VPN. A routing policy specified in IPv6 VPN
view applies only to the IPv6 VPN.

8
A routing policy specified in IPv4 VPN view or IPv6 view takes precedence over that specified in VPN
instance view. If you specify a routing policy in both IPv4 VPN view (or IPv6 VPN view) and VPN instance
view, the IPv4 VPN (IPv6 VPN) uses the policy specified in IPv4 VPN view (IPv6 VPN view).
Examples
# Apply export routing policy poly-1 to VPN instance vpn1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] export route-policy poly-1
# Apply export routing policy poly-2 to the IPv4 VPN of VPN instance vpn2.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn2
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn2] ipv4-family
[Sysname-vpn-ipv4-vpn2] export route-policy poly-2
# Apply export routing policy poly-3 to the IPv6 VPN of VPN instance vpn3.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn3
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn3] ipv6-family
[Sysname-vpn-ipv6-vpn3] export route-policy poly-3
ext-community-type
Use ext-community-type to configure the type code of an OSPF extended community attribute.
Use undo ext-community-type to restore the default.
Syntax
ext-community-type { domain-id type-code1 | router-id type-code2 |route-type type-code3 }
undo ext-community-type { domain-id |router-id |route-type }
Default
The type codes for the OSPF extended community attributes of Domain ID, Router ID, and Route Type are
0x0005, 0x0107, and 0x0306.
Views

import route-policy
Use import route-policy to apply a routing policy to filter incoming routes for the VPN instance. Such a
routing policy is referred to as an import routing policy.
Use undo import route-policy to remove the application.
Syntax
import route-policy route-policy
undo import route-policy
Default
No import routing policy is applied to a VPN instance. All routes matching the import target attribute are
accepted.
Views
VPN instance view, IPv4 VPN view, IPv6 VPN view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
route-policy: Specifies the name of a routing policy, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 63 characters.
Usage guidelines
Use this command to apply a routing policy to a VPN instance for more precise and flexible route
reception of the VPN instance. When the device receives routes of the VPN instance, it filters the received
routes and modifies attributes for the received routes according to the specified routing policy.
If you execute this command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.
A routing policy specified in VPN instance view applies to both the IPv4 VPN and IPv6 VPN. A routing
policy specified in IPv4 VPN view applies only to the IPv4 VPN. A routing policy specified in IPv6 VPN
view applies only to the IPv6 VPN.
A routing policy specified in IPv4 VPN view or IPv6 view takes precedence over that specified in VPN
instance view. If you specify a routing policy in both IPv4 VPN view (or IPv6 VPN view) and VPN instance
view, the IPv4 VPN (IPv6 VPN) uses the policy specified in IPv4 VPN view (IPv6 VPN view).
Examples
# Apply import routing policy poly-1 to VPN instance vpn1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] import route-policy poly-1

Use undo route-distinguisher to delete the RD for a VPN instance.
Syntax
route-distinguisher route-distinguisher
undo route-distinguisher
Default
No RD is specified for a VPN instance.
Views
VPN instance view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
route-distinguisher: Specifies the RD for the VPN instance, a string of 3 to 21 characters in one of the
following formats:
•16 - b i t AS n u m b e r :32-bit user-defined number. For example, 101:3.
•32-bit IP address:16-bit user-defined number. For example, 192.168.122.15:1.
•32-bit AS number:16-bit user-defined number, where the minimum value of the AS number is 65536.
For example, 65536:1.
Usage guidelines
RDs enable VPNs to use overlapping address space. By prefixing an RD to an IPv4 prefix for a VPN, you
make the VPN IPv4 prefix globally unique. On an MCE device, when multiple BGP VPN instances are
configured, you can configure RDs for the VPN instances to distinguish them.
To change the RD for a VPN instance, you must first delete the RD with the undo route-distinguisher
command, and then configure a new RD for the VPN instance with the route-distinguisher command.
Examples
# Configure an RD for VPN instance vpn1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] route-distinguisher 22:1

13
route-tag
Use route-tag to configure a route tag for redistributed VPN routes.
Use undo route-tag to restore the default.
Syntax
route-tag tag-value
undo route-tag
Default
If BGP AS number is not greater than 65535, the first two octets of the default route tag is always
0xD000 and the last two octets are the AS number of the local BGP. For example, if the local BGP AS
number is 100, the default VPN route tag is 3489661028 in decimal. If the BGP AS number is greater
than 65535, the default route tag is 0.
Views
OSPF view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
tag-value: Specifies the VPN route tag in the range of 0 to 4294967295.
Usage guidelines
On an MCE device, you can configure a VPN route tag for a VPN instance bound to an OSPF process.
The VPN route tag must be included in Type-5 or Type-7 LSAs. HP recommends configuring the same
VPN route tag for MCEs in the same area.
The VPN route tag is not transferred in any BGP extended community attribute. It is locally significant and
needs to be configured and takes effect only on the MCEs that receive BGP routes and generate OSPF
Type-5 or Type-7 LSAs.
You can configure the same VPN route tag for different OSPF processes.
A route tag can be configured by different commands and has different priorities. The commands used
to configure the external route tag (in the descending order of tag priority) are as follows:
•import-route
•route-tag
•default tag
If the route tag carried in a Type-5 or Type-7 LSA received by an MCE is the same as the locally
configured route tag, the MCE neglects the LSA in route calculation to avoid routing loops.
Examples
# Set the route tag to 100 for OSPF process 100.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ospf 100
[Sysname-ospf-100] route-tag 100
Related commands

routing-table limit
Use routing-table limit to set the maximum number of routes in a VPN instance.
Use undo routing-table limit to restore the default.
Syntax
routing-table limit number { warn-threshold | simply-alert }
undo routing-table limit
Default
No limit is set to the route number for a VPN instance.
Views
VPN instance view, IPv4 VPN view, IPv6 VPN view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
number: Specifies the maximum number of routes. The value range is 1 to 8192 in VPN instance view
and IPv6 VPN view, and is 1 to 16384 in IPv4 VPN view.
warn-threshold: Specifies a warning threshold, in the range of 1 to 100 in percentages. When the
percentage of the number of existing routes to the maximum number of routes exceeds the specified
threshold, the system gives an alarm message but still permits new routes. If the number of routes in the
VPN instance reaches the maximum, no more routes are added.
simply-alert: Specifies that when the maximum route number is reached, the system still accepts routes
but generates a syslog message.
Description
This command prevents the MCE from learning excessive routes.
If you execute this command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.
The setting configured in VPN instance view applies to both the IPv4 VPN and IPv6 VPN. The setting
configured in IPv4 VPN view applies only to the IPv4 VPN. The setting configured in IPv6 VPN view
applies only to the IPv6 VPN.
The setting configured in IPv4 VPN view or IPv6 VPN view takes precedence over that configured in VPN
instance view. If you configure a limit in both IPv4 VPN view (or IPv6 VPN view) and VPN instance view,
the IPv4 VPN (IPv6 VPN) uses the limit configured in IPv4 VPN view (IPv6 VPN view).
Examples
# Specify that VPN instance vpn1 can still learn new routes after the maximum number of 1000 routes
is reached but generates a syslog.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] route-distinguisher 100:1
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] routing-table limit 1000 simply-alert
# Specify that IPv4 VPN instance vpn1 can still learn new routes after the maximum number of 1000
routes is reached but generates a syslog.

vpn-target
Use vpn-target to configure route targets for a VPN instance.
Use undo vpn-target to remove the specified or all route targets of a VPN instance.
Syntax
vpn-target vpn-target&<1-8> [ both | export-extcommunity | import-extcommunity ]
undo vpn-target { all | vpn-target&<1-8> [ both | export-extcommunity | import-extcommunity ] }
Default
No route targets are specified for a VPN instance.
Views
VPN instance view, IPv4 VPN view, IPv6 VPN view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
vpn-target&<1-8>: Specifies route targets. &<1-8> means that you can specify up to eight route targets.

A route target is a string of 3 to 21 characters in one the following formats:
•16 - b i t AS n u m b e r :32-bit user-defined number. For example, 101:3.
•32-bit IP address:16-bit user-defined number. For example, 192.168.122.15:1.
•32-bit AS number:16-bit user-defined number, where the AS number must not be less than 65536.
For example, 65536:1.
both: Uses the specified route targets as both import targets and export targets. The both keyword is also
used when you do not specify any of both, export-extcommunity, or import-extcommunity.
export-extcommunity: Uses the specified route targets as export targets.
import-extcommunity: Uses the specified route targets as import targets.
all: Specifies all route targets.
Description
Route targets are used to control VPN route learning. The MCE adds the specified export targets into
VPN routes advertised a peer. The peer compares the export targets in the received VPN routes against
the local import targets. If a match is found, the peer adds the received routes to the VPN routing table.
You can configure multiple route targets for a VPN instance by executing this command multiple times.
The route targets configured in VPN instance view apply to both the IPv4 VPN and IPv6 VPN. The route
targets configured in IPv4 VPN view apply only to the IPv4 VPN. The route targets configured in IPv6
VPN view apply only to the IPv6 VPN.
Route targets configured in IPv4 VPN view or IPv6 VPN view takes precedence over that configured in
VPN instance view. If you configure route targets in both IPv4 VPN view (or IPv6 VPN view) and VPN
instance view, the IPv4 VPN (IPv6 VPN) uses the route targets configured in IPv4 VPN view (IPv6 VPN
view).
Examples
# Configure route targets for VPN instance vpn1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] vpn-target 3:3 export-extcommunity
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] vpn-target 4:4 import-extcommunity
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] vpn-target 5:5 both
# Configure route targets for IPv4 VPN instance vpn2.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn2
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn2] ipv4-family
[Sysname-vpn-ipv4-vpn2] vpn-target 3:3 export-extcommunity
[Sysname-vpn-ipv4-vpn2] vpn-target 4:4 import-extcommunity
[Sysname-vpn-ipv4-vpn2] vpn-target 5:5 both

IPv6 MCE configuration commands
This chapter describes only IPv6 MCE specific commands. To configure IPv6 MCE, you must use some
MCE commands in VPN instance view or IPv6 VPN view. For more information, see "MCE configuration
commands."
display bgp group ipv6 vpn-instance
Use display bgp group ipv6 vpn-instance to display information about the BGP IPv6 peers in the
specified VPN instance.
Syntax
display bgp group ipv6 vpn-instance vpn-instance-name [group-name ]
Views
Any view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
network-operator
Parameters
group-name: Specifies a BGP IPv6 peer group by its name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 47 characters.
If no group is specified, this command displays brief information about all BGP IPv6 peer groups.
vpn-instance vpn-instance-name: Specifies the name of a VPN instance, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31
characters.
