Hi.
I can't see any big problems with a flat vpn-cloud considering the
following:
- The sites should ideally use a default route into the cloud.
- The sites should have no requirement for segregation inside the cloud.
- The sites should have absolutely common policies regarding all routing
decisions and gateways in/out of the cloud.
Exactly what kind of distributed services are you thinking about?
Best regards,
Stig Meireles Johansen

Subject: [c-nsp] Flat MPLS service from provider
Hello,
Does anyone on this list manage a network or have customers that run a
large (500+ sites, scaling up to 1000) flat (single vrf) enterprise
network. If so, can you share any lessons learned from this service as
opposed to building a hierarchal design (ordering multiple VRF clouds
from a provider - core cloud, regional cloud, etc..). I'm in the process
of identifying potential issues for a customer considering a flat
network design model. Their network is currently regionalized with
point-to-point circuits.
Two of the first that came to mind were:
- Summarization (could only do per site, no large regional summarization
blocks). Unless defaults are used.
- Difficult to deploy distributed services with no aggregation sites.
Thanks,
Dave
