We have a couple of rack in data centres around UK and Europe connected via P2P links, running MPLS L3VPN across our core network.
Due to a company merger we also have a number of racks in USA, Hong Kong, Australia, that we want to connect all back to each other.
The other company pre merger had a number of p2ps linking these up but the cost was extortionate and they suffered numerous outages(unprotected).
The plan is to get all our dc's connected up. Our current thinking is to source a vpls from a third party, and then emulate point to point links by tagging subinterfaces ie USA to London vlan10, London to Sydney vlan20.
Does that sound workable so far or are there better solutions?
We would also want to extend our MPLS to the previous companies DC's, giving us the ability to carry customer, and our own, vrfs across the emulated point to points via the providers vpls.
Is this possible or should we be looking at a different design/solution?
here's a rough and ready implementation idea we have in mind:
