ASR supports OTV if you can do multicast over L3. Although, you may not ne=
ed L2 extensions in the end.

To all,

I am trying to extend a layer2 connection over Layer 3 so I can have redund=
ant Layer connectivity between my HQ and colo site. The reason I need this =
is so I can give the "appeareance" that there is one gateway and that both =
data centers can share the same Layer3 subnet (which I am announcing via BG=
P to 2 different vendors).

I have 2 ASR's. Will EoMPLS work or is there another option?
