Bridge class C over MPLS using GRE/VPLS?

Thu Nov 10, 2011 9:01 pm

I have an MPLS network with 10.128.11.0/24 on one end and 10.128.12.0/24 on the other. I need to have 11 on both ends; my thought was to put routerboards on either end, run a GRE tunnel between the two, and create only one .11 network. Will this work, or will I need to use VPLS or something? The RBs will not be terminating the MPLS, that is done by our ISP. They can hand off whatever IP we need; I was thinking something like this:
{LOC_A [10.128.11.0/24]} - {RB_0 ETH2 [10.128.11.1]} - {RB_0 ETH1 [10.0.11.1]} - {ISP MPLS [10.0.11.254]} =MPLS= {ISP MPLS [10.0.12.254]} - {RB_1 ETH1 [10.0.12.1]} - {RB_1 ETH2 [10.128.11.2]} - {LOC_B [10.128.11.0/24]}

Thoughts? Suggestions? I need this up by tomorrow evening, so any help is appreciated! I've not done this on this sort of equipment before, so please excuse my ignorance. Thanks!
