OSPF redistributed across an MPLS VPN is treated as an inter-area route (OIA) – delivered to the CE router as a Type 3 LSA. The mechanisms behind why this is the case are beyond the scope of this article. In order to fix this issue, we can create a “sham-link”. A sham link is an OSPF neighbour adjacency across an MPLS VPN.

Internet Draft draft-rosen-ppvpn-ospf2547-area0-02.txt February 2003 3.The VPN Backbone and Area 0 As specified in [], every PE attached to a particular OSPF network MUST be an OSPF area 0 router.If the OSPF domain has any area 0 routers (other than the PE routers), then at least one of those MUST be a CE router, and MUST have an area 0 link to at least one PE router.

Using OSPF in an MPLS VPN Environment Area 3 • OSPF area 0 might extend into individual sites • MPLS VPN backbone has to become a super-backbone for a single OSPF domain The MPLS VPN architecture extends the OSPF architecture by introducing another backbone above OSPF area 0 (superbackbone). The OSPF super-backbone is implemented with MP-BGP between the PE-routers, but is otherwise Configuration of MPLS-VPN (Super Backbone and Sham-Link)│SE …

SonicWall Multiple VPN, how many OSPF Area's : networking SonicWall VPN's and MPLS(using BGP) with Cisco Routers. 2 Internet Connections at Main Office : MInet_A and MInet_B When I first got in my position I setup a simple OSPF Area 0 on the Cisco and the SonicWalls and redistributed my BGP MPLS routes so I didn't have a bunch of static routes pointing back and forth.
