Interoperability between separate and collapsed service-layer and transport-layer tunnels

Abstract:

A first network device may generate a layer-3 virtual private network (L3VPN) route advertisement associated with the first network device. The L3VPN route advertisement may include a first portion, associated with a second network device included in an L3VPN with the first network device, for separate transport-layer tunnel and service-layer tunneling, and a second portion, associated with the second network device, for collapsed transport-layer and service-layer tunneling. The first network device may transmit the L3VPN route advertisement.
