OSPF import-route direct not working when using vpn-instance

[drc290]

Hi All

I am using some 5820X 24XG SFP+ (JC102A) running OSPF with multiple vpn-instances. I have some trouple with the import-route direct command, it works fine for the OSPF instance running without a vpn-instance, but for the other OSPF instances running a vpn-instance it wont import the routes and i need to configure the networks manually.  

I have tried searching but can't seem to find any answers, so I hope that you can help me :) 

Best regards

Danny

Hello Danny,

Can you check below community post.

I believe to allow external routes in ospf database we need to add command "vpn-instance-capability simple "

Thanks!

I'm using HP Comware 7 and using ospf version 2 under multiple vpn-instance. 

For one vpn-instance named MPP,  the ospf routes are not reflecting under my vpn-instance routing table MPP.

I can see these ospf routes in my ospf database table using the "dispaly ospf lsdb"

Why is that some ospf routes are reflectinf and some are not under my vpn-instance routing table MPP?

Will adding the command "vpn-instance-capability simple" under my ospf fix this issue?
