## AI overview

The article documents troubleshooting SR Linux MPLS/VPN configuration in netlab. It explains that a dynamic MPLS label block and L3VPN BGP address-family configuration are required, and notes that route distinguishers and route targets may need explicit configuration instead of relying on EVPN-derived values.

## Source excerpt

After fixing the SR Linux LDP configuration template, I decided to add MPLS/VPN to the netlab SR Linux MPLS features. After all, the one-page recipe seemed simple enough, more so as we already have tested VRF and EVPN templates. Alas, nothing is as simple as it looks. There were two details that tripped me pretty badly. Read more ...
