Hi, I'm trying to test the L3VPN in my lab with EXOS VMs, but when I try to create a vr type vpn-vrf, this option is not present ...is this feature unsopported in the virtual EXOS? Thanks

Hi,

it's supported, but you need MPLS feature I believe. I'd recommend you to enable the trial license.

Hi Grosjean, I've already enabled the trial license and made other labs with MPLS feature enabled, but for L3VPN, when you try to define a new VR of type VPN-VRF, this options is not present in the virtual EXOS, but is possible to define only the type VRF.....

Hi Grosjean, I confirm you that works also on my VMs...in my previous tests probally there were a problem with my configuration script that has not enabled the trial license on the VMs before to run the command ...
Thanks for your confirm.
