MP-BGP is an extension of BGP-4 that supports multi-protocol address families such as IPv6, VPNv4, etc. When PE and CE exchange BGP routes, there is no need to create a BGP process per VPN on the CE. The CE typically runs a standard BGP process, while the PE maintains separate VPN routing tables (VRFs).
Exact Extract - Huawei HCIE-Datacom MP-BGP Chapter:
“CE devices use standard BGP, and multiple VPNs can share the same BGP process on the CE. The PE handles VPN route separation through VRFs and MP-BGP.”
