Static routes for route exchange

Static routes can be used to exchange routes between CE routers and PE routers. In this situation,
a default static route must be configured on a CE router to its associated PE router. A static route
must be configured between the PE router and the network (or networks) that the PE wants to
advertise as available through a VRF.
