Greetings.
I have been struggling with completing a setup in the lab where I have 2 MX's routers acting as PEs. The default RI is configured for MPBGP peering where both IPv4 and IPv6 routes will be distributed to various VRFs. The Ipv4 works fine. I have gone through many different websites and tried many configurations and I am still unable to get the IPv6 routes to become usable. I know I am missing a secret sauce but at this point I am unable to figure it out. Looking for valid suggections (really appreciate it).
I am using the Mapped IPv4<>IPv6 addresses for the interfaces between the 2 nodes. The route I am concerend with is 2021:........
The interface ae44 is the link from the MX to a series of QFX switched where the end CE device is located. VLAN 2300 and 2301 are the redundant paths to the end device, I cna ping both the IPv4 and v6 addresses across the links. I am only working on 1 of the PEs at the moment to get the setup working. IPv4 is working to both PEs today.
Please let me know what other info you need to look at. Again, I really appreciate the help in advance.
