There are lots of options but beware of the MTU.

Subject: Layer2 over Layer3=20

To all,
=A0
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).
=A0
I have 2 ASR's. Will EoMPLS work or is there another option?
