Implementing MPLS VPNs over IP Tunnels
The MPLS VPNs over IP Tunnels feature lets you deploy Layer 3 Virtual Private Network (L3VPN) services,
over an IP core network, using L2TPv3 multipoint tunneling instead of MPLS. This allows L2TPv3 tunnels
to be configured as multipoint tunnels to transport IP VPN services across the core IP network.
