Not really a mpls problem, but by cutting out the hierarchy you will be creating more IGP adjacency state etc. It really depends on what scale you do this at. If you're going to create a full-mesh of PE-PE's and you've got 50 PE's, that's going to be a problem in various fronts-- again not really a MPLS issue. If you care about multicast replication efficiency, this is not the path to take ;-) Depending on how you cost your links the PE-PE link may become a transit interface for traffic that has nothing to do with both PE's. > > Thanks for any information, > > Amelia > > ------- > The MPLS-OPS Mailing List > Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.mplsrc.com/mplsops.shtml > Archive: http://www.mplsrc.com/mpls-ops_archive.shtml -- Aamer Akhter / aa@cisco.com NSITE - cisco Systems ------- The MPLS-OPS Mailing List Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.mplsrc.com/mplsops.shtml Archive: http://www.mplsrc.com/mpls-ops_archive.shtml
