Hi,

I’ve been doing some more testing with the following results:

The following configurations work:

1. family mpls is deactivated on em1 with routing-options rib inet.3 static 
route 0.0.0.0/0 discard configured
2. family mpls is enabled on em1 with routing-options rib inet.3 static route 
0.0.0.0/0 discard and routing-options resolution rib bgp.l3vpn.0 
resolution-ribs inet.0 configured simultaneously
3. family mpls is enabled on em1 with routing-options resolution rib 
bgp.l3vpn.0 resolution-ribs inet.0 configured

The following configurations do not work:

4. If family mpls is enabled on em1 with routing-options rib inet.3 static 
route 0.0.0.0/0 discard configured
5. If family mpls is deactivated on em1 with routing-options rib inet.3 static 
route 0.0.0.0/0 discard and routing-options resolution rib bgp.l3vpn.0 
resolution-ribs inet.0 configured simultaneously
6. If family mpls is deactivated on em1 with routing-options resolution rib 
bgp.l3vpn.0 resolution-ribs inet.0 configured

So it seems based on Masik’s statement that case 5 work in 17.4, then there may 
be a behaviour change between 17.4 and 18.2

It seems logical to me that if case 2 works, case 5 should work as well.

All that being said, I can’t seem to find any documentation on what exactly 
enabling family mpls on the interface does.  It seems to me that it would 
configure the interface to accept labelled packets, but since there are no 
labelled packets here, family mpls does something else?
