A customer requires MPLS Layer 2 VPN connectivity between two sites using Pseudowire. Which control protocol is used to signal the pseudowire label?

A service provider recently deployed MPLS L3VPN for a customer with four sites (Site1, Site2, Site3, Site4) connected to PE1, PE2, PE3, and PE4 respectively. All sites are in VRF CUST-A with route targets 100:1 import and 100:1 export on all PEs. The customer reports that Site4 cannot ping the loopback interface (10.1.1.1/32) of Site1, but Site2 and Site3 can reach it. The provider verifies that BGP sessions between all PEs and the route reflector are up and that VPNv4 routes are advertised. The VRF on PE4 shows the route 10.1.1.1/32 with next-hop 192.0.2.1 (PE1's loopback) but when Site4 initiates a ping, it fails. What should the provider check next?

A service provider operates a Layer 2 MPLS VPN using VPLS. Recently, two new CE routers were added to the VPLS domain, but they cannot ping each other. The existing CEs can communicate. The network uses BGP autodiscovery and signaling. The new CEs are connected to different PEs. The 'show vfi status' command on the new PEs indicates the VFI is up but the pseudowire to the remote PE is down. The BGP session between the PEs is established and the L2VPN address family routes are exchanged. What is the most probable cause?

A customer's MPLS L3VPN has two CE routers connected to two different PEs, but the PEs are not receiving the customer's routes from each other. The PE-CE routing protocol is OSPF. The PEs have the VRF configured with OSPF process, and the routes from CE are in the VRF routing table. The MP-BGP session between PEs is up and the VPNv4 address family is working. On the source PE, the routes show as not advertised to BGP. What is the likely issue?

Which THREE characteristics apply to the BGP-LS (BGP Link State) protocol?

A large service provider is migrating its L2VPN services (VPWS and VPLS) to EVPN-based solutions to improve scalability and support multi-homing. During the rollout for a customer using VLAN-based EVPN for a data center interconnect, the operations team notices frequent MAC address flapping and broadcast storms on one of the attachment circuits connected to a PE router. The PE is configured for EVPN-MPLS with ESI multihoming using all-active mode. The customer has two PEs (PE1 and PE2) connected to the same CE via two separate Ethernet links. The MAC table on PE1 shows the same MAC address alternating between the local AC interface and the remote EVPN peers. What is the most likely cause and the correct action to resolve this issue?

An ISP operates an MPLS Layer 3 VPN backbone. A customer, Corporation X, has four sites (A, B, C, D) each connected to a different PE router (PE-A, PE-B, PE-C, PE-D). They use OSPF as the CE-PE routing protocol. Sites A, B, and C can exchange routes without issue. However, Site D suddenly loses connectivity to Site B, though it can still reach Sites A and C. Show commands on PE-D reveal that the VRF for Corporation X imports RT:100:200, and the route for Site B (prefix 10.10.20.0/24) is present in the BGP VPNv4 table with RT:100:200 and next-hop 10.0.2.2. The OSPF neighbor between PE-D and the CE at Site D is up, and no route filters are configured. ‘ping 10.10.20.0’ from PE-D fails. What is the most likely cause of the issue?

Which TWO of the following are services that can be offered using MPLS Layer 3 VPN (L3VPN) technology? (Select two.)

A service provider has a network with multiple PE routers providing MPLS L3VPN services. Customers are complaining that some remote sites are unreachable after a recent software upgrade on PE1. Upon investigation, you notice that PE1 is receiving BGP VPNv4 routes from the route reflector, but some routes are not being installed in the VRF routing table. PE1 is configured with BGP additional-path capability and has a route policy that selects only the best path. The VRF on PE1 has import and export route targets configured correctly. The missing routes have a higher local preference but are not selected due to a tie-break in BGP path selection. Which action should be taken to ensure that all valid routes are installed in the VRF?

A service provider is deploying a point-to-point Layer 2 VPN across an MPLS network using Ethernet over MPLS (EoMPLS) with Martini encapsulation. The customer requires transparent transport of VLAN tags (Q-in-Q) between two sites. The provider configures the attachment circuits on the PE routers as VLAN subinterfaces with dot1q encapsulation. After configuration, the customer reports that only untagged frames pass through the pseudowire; double-tagged frames are dropped at the egress PE. Which action resolves the issue?
