I was trying to figure out how to redistribute routes between some VRFs for a project that I am working on.  I won’t get into details of the project or specifics, but ultimately the goal was to be able to leak routes between the VRFs so that we can gain access to the management ports on some devices.  Since VRFs are separate routing tables that co-exist within the same router and cannot see each other, getting communication between them can be difficult at best.
Using some the features of PE routers, you can overcome this limitation by using BGP to redistribute between them.
Below is the diagram that we will be using for this config.  What we will do is configure R3 to redistribute routes between VRF RED and VRF BLUE to enable connectivity.

R7 and R8 are just basic configs like you would do on an ordinary router
Basic R7 Configuration:
!
interface Loopback0
ip address 10.1.7.7 255.255.255.0
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
ip address 10.1.37.7 255.255.255.0
!
router eigrp 100
network 10.0.0.0
no auto-summary
!
Basic R8 Configuration:
!
interface Loopback0
ip address 10.1.8.8 255.255.255.0
!
interface FastEthernet0/1
ip address 10.1.38.8 255.255.255.0
!
router eigrp 200
network 10.0.0.0
no auto-summary
!
Now when it comes to R3, we need to be a little creative.  Here we will place the interfaces in the appropriate VRFs and configure EIGRP and BGP.
Note:  Fa0/0 will be in VRF BLUE and Fa0/1 will be in VRF RED
R3 Configuration items:
We will define VRF RED and BLUE here and also assign it an RD (route distinguisher) to ID these routes
Link – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Route_distinguisher
VRF BLUE will have a RD of 1:1 and VRF RED will have a RD of 1:2.
The command route-target will allow us to import and export based on the RD assigned to a given network.
ip vrf BLUE
rd 1:1
route-target export 1:1
route-target import 1:1
route-target import 1:2
ip vrf RED
rd 1:2
route-target export 1:2
route-target import 1:2
route-target import 1:1
Next step is to configure the interfaces in the appropriate VRFs
interface FastEthernet0/0
ip vrf forwarding BLUE
ip address 10.1.37.3 255.255.255.0

interface FastEthernet0/1
ip vrf forwarding RED
ip address 10.1.38.3 255.255.255.0
Since this router will be running EIGRP under different VRFs, we will need to great a top-level AS and then get into the address-family commands to configure the VRF EIGRP AS
router eigrp 1
no auto-summary
!
address-family ipv4 vrf RED ! <- This will allow us to configure EIGRP for VRF RED
network 10.1.38.3 0.0.0.0
no auto-summary
autonomous-system 200 !<- This is the EIGRP AS number for VRF RED
exit-address-family
!
address-family ipv4 vrf BLUE !<- This will allow us to configure EIGRP for VRF BLUE
network 10.1.37.3 0.0.0.0
no auto-summary
autonomous-system 100 !<- This is the EIGRP AS number for VRF BLUE
exit-address-family
!
The next step is going to be to configure a lone BGP session where we can redistribute and place the routes in a VPNV4 environment.  Basically we are creating a lone SP network where VPNV4 routes are “exchanged”.  You do not need a neighbor for this, just a BGP session configured and IPV4 VRF families.
router bgp 1
no synchronization
bgp log-neighbor-changes
no auto-summary
!
address-family ipv4 vrf RED !<- Here we will configure BGP for VRF RED and redistribute routes learned from EIGRP in
redistribute eigrp 200
no auto-summary
no synchronization
exit-address-family
!
address-family ipv4 vrf BLUE !<-  Here we configure BGP for VRF BLUE and then redistribute routes learned from EIGRP in
redistribute connected
redistribute eigrp 100
no auto-summary
no synchronization
exit-address-family
!
Lastly we will need to configure EIGRP to redistribute BGP learned routes:
router eigrp 1
!
address-family ipv4 vrf VRF2
redistribute bgp 1 metric 1 1 1 1 1500
exit-address-family
!
address-family ipv4 vrf VRF1
redistribute bgp 1 metric 1 1 1 1 1500
exit-address-family
Once you have done that, R7 can now ping R8

R7#sh ip route

A route distinguisher is an address qualifer used only within a single internet service provider‘s Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) network. It is used to distinguish the distinct Virtual Private Network (VPN) routes of separate customers who connect to the provider.
The route distinguisher is an 8-byte field prefixed to the customer’s Internet Protocol address (IPv4). The resulting 12-byte field is a unique “VPN-IPv4” address. There is a more detailed description in RFC 4364[1]. At the edge of an MPLS provider’s network, a router which connects to a customer’s network is called a Provider Edge (PE) router. Similarly, the customer’s edge router at the other end of the connection is called a Customer Edge (CE) router. Within an MPLS network, a PE router needs to be configured to associate each route distinguisher with routes which lead to a particular CE router. The PE router may be configured to associate all routes leading to the same CE router with the same route distinguisher, or it may be configured to associate different routes with different route distinguishers, even if they lead to the same CE router.
