Hi Adam, Thank you for your suggestion.
However, CE2 and CE2 are only running OSPF, not BGP. All PE routers are running a full mesh iBGP, with OSPF as the underlying IGP. So I don't think your suggestion works in our environment.

This will automatically set MED value equal to the IGP metric towards the BGP next-hop (PE1's loopback) of the CE1's prefix. adam -----Original Message----- From: cisco-nsp [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ulrik Ivers Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2013 4:11 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [c-nsp] L3VPN - redistribute into OSPF, default metric Hi, I have a question regarding redistributing routes from BGP to OSPF in a L3VPN setup. I've got limited experience in this area, so please excuse if the question is incorrectly formulated. The topology is like this P -- PE1 -- CE1 | | PE2 - PE3 |\ /| | \ / | | X | | / \ | CE2 - CE3 A subnet is directly connected to PE1 from CE1, no OSPF. PE1 is doing address-family ipv4 vrf CUST-A redistribute connected exit-address-family PE2 and PE3 (ASR9K) are doing OSPF with CE2 and CE3. PE2 and PE3 are redistributing from BGP into OSPF, today no route-maps etc. Now to the question. The subnet from CE1 is redistributed to CE2 and CE3 from both PE2 and PE3 with the same metric (metric 1, default for BGP into OSPF) . The result is that CE2 and CE3 have to equal cost routes to the subnet to both PE2 and PE3. Wouldn't it better if the route to PE2 had a higher metric so that when all links are up the traffic goes via only PE3? Can we accomplish this in some "automatic" way (we have several VRFs set up in the same way)? Getting PE2 and PE3 to take into account the IGP cost to reach PE1 when redistributing? Or do we need to manually create route-maps in PE2 to set a higher cost for the subnet from CE1 when redistributing into OSPF?
