True, the CSC code can be buggy sometimes. As this 3 minute marker is
definitely a bug. I recall I also had some issues where it worked only
some period of time, so maybe I ran into that same issue. Still it's
sometimes buggy and I don't think that will happen on your lab.

Thanks Guys, I am using 7200s in dynamips with 12.2S code. In fact,
this is a mock set up of vol 2 lab 4, I just took everything else
out of the equation. I started from scratch just doing the MPLS VPN
scenarios. Even R2 is not doing anything (ospf or ldp) right now. I
am also just using physical interfaces on my frame relay cloud :) I
don't see the client tagging the packets but I could look deeper
into this. It's just amazing that is every 3 minutes pretty much on
the dot! I wonder if it's some type of CSC bug having to do with
MPLS on the VRF interface...I will do some more testing and let you
know.

Had a similar issue. I narrowed it down to point to point frame-

What I saw was a loop. The client would tag packets to the carrier
for the directly connected subnet. I was expecting to see it pop the
label:
R2(config-subif)#do sh ip cef 123.2.6.6
123.2.6.0/24
attached to Serial4/0.206 label 614
The 614 label then sends the packet back to the client and a loop
forms:
R2(config)#do trace 123.2.6.6
Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 123.2.6.6
1 123.2.6.6 [MPLS: Label 614 Exp 0] 8 msec 32 msec 12 msec
2 123.2.6.2 20 msec 40 msec 40 msec

9 123.2.6.6 [MPLS: Label 614 Exp 0] 60 msec 108 msec 60 msec
Changing the frame-relay config to use the main interface solved the
problem.

Subject: RE: Carrier Supporting Carrier (CSC) - LDP peering between

Make it two. I had the same problem with vol II - Lab 4 (I think),
but from
R2 to R6.
At that point I blamed on dynamips being buggy as all the routing/MPLS
tables seem fine.
I look forward to a resolution on this. The interesting thing is
that when I
shut down the connection from R1 to R2, the problem went away, so it
sounds
like an IGP issue. However even making a Sham link between r6 and r9
and
increasing the OSPF cost from R1 to R2 (to ensure AS200 was the exit
point),
made no difference.
I would say that a possible workaround could be to make the R1-R9 LDP
sessions targeted, but obviously what we all want to know is what
the heck
happened there in the first place.
During my testing I disabled MPLS TE too in AS200, just in case, but
no
cigar....
Cheers,
Francisco

Subject: Carrier Supporting Carrier (CSC) - LDP peering between SPs
drops
every 3 minutes
Hello,
I am running an inter-as + CSC scenario with OSPF and MPLS between
the SPs.
The LDP peering is dropping exactly every 3 minutes and coming back
up.
Connectivity is fine throughout the VPN when the session is up. I
don't see
any route flapping in the debugs.
AS65123[R3]---------[R8]AS100---------AS200[R9]---------[R1]AS65123
AS100 and AS200 have an inter-as VPN supporting the 2nd level carrier
AS65123.
R9 and R8 have vrf interfaces connected to R1 and R3 respectively.
R1 has an LDP/OSPF peering with R9 (in the vrf) in AS100
R3 has an LDP/OSPF peering with R8 (in the vrf) in AS200
Both LDP sessions are bouncing on queue every 3 minutes! Here is R8
for
example:
R8#
*Sep 3 21:50:49.575: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.3:0 is
DOWN
*Sep 3 21:50:59.475: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.3:0 is
UP
*Sep 3 21:53:59.491: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.3:0 is
DOWN
*Sep 3 21:54:09.291: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.3:0 is
UP
*Sep 3 21:57:09.311: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.3:0 is
DOWN
*Sep 3 21:57:19.331: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.3:0 is
UP
*Sep 3 22:00:19.351: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.3:0 is
DOWN
*Sep 3 22:00:29.239: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.3:0 is
UP
Now just before the session dies I get the following from "debug
mpls ldp
transport events interface x/x". This is from R9:
R9#
*Sep 3 22:09:27.295: ldp: Send ldp hello; Serial1/2, src/dst

*Sep 3 22:09:32.127: ldp: Send ldp hello; Serial1/2, src/dst

*Sep 3 22:09:33.239: ldp: Rcvd ldp hello; Serial1/2, from 123.1.9.1 (

*Sep 3 22:09:36.911: ldp: Close LDP transport conn for adj 0x63486648
*Sep 3 22:09:36.915: ldp: Closing ldp conn 123.1.9.9:646 <->

*Sep 3 22:09:36.923: %LDP-5-NBRCHG: LDP Neighbor 123.123.123.1:0 is
DOWN
Even though I am sending and receiving hellos, I am getting the
session
keepalive timer expired. Any ideas?
Thanks!
