7.9.5. VRF Features Support The following table lists features and details how they are supported by VRF Lite: Feature VRF Support Network Management Network management includes the ability to manage the switch via CLI and SNMP. Network management is supported only via the default router. Administrators cannot log into the switch and manage the switch via one of the IP addresses on the non-default VR. The Service Port and the Network Port are always associated with the default router, so the customers are able to manage the switch via these interfaces. SNMP Management Only the default router can be managed via SNMP. AAA Network Services The Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting protocols include services such as the RADIUS client and the TACACS+ client. The switch supports these services only on the default router. The Ping and the Trace Route clients are supported in the Virtual Router context. Other protocols are supported only in the default router. These include the SNTP client, DNS client, sFlow, RPCAP, and Auto Install. Loopback and Tunnel Interfaces Loopback interfaces with IPv4 prefixes are supported in the Virtual Router. Loopback interfaces with IPv6 addresses can be configured only in the default router. The number of Loopback interfaces in builds containing the VRF package is increased to 64. The loopback interfaces are shared across VR instances in the system and there is no restriction on the maximum supported per VR. Tunnel interfaces are not supported in the Virtual Router. IP unnumbered interfaces IP unnumbered interface cannot be part of non-default VRF instance. This feature is supported only in the default router. OSPFv2 The OSPFv2 protocol is supported in the Virtual Router. As of the current release, a crash in the OSPFv2 protocol does not cause the switch to reboot. All OSPF features including graceful restart and NSF are supported for OSPFv2 in each VR instance. OSPF v3 The OSPFv3 protocol is supported only in the default router. RIP RIP is not currently supported in the Virtual Router. VRRP The Virtual Routing Redundancy Protocol is a fault-tolerance feature that enables two or more routers to appear as one router to the IP clients.
