HI,
I have a question. Is it a need to classify VPN traffic based on IP
header fields in Egress PE?
I think that normaly traffic is clssified in Ingress PE and flow by
core handling based on EXP field in MPLS shim header. Is it correct?
Which scenario will be done when I should use a Egress PE
classification?

Second question which layer MPLS is? Layer 2 or not? It's for
clarification ;-)

Best regards,
Christopher May
