That said, I've never tried extending our MPLS backbone outside of our own administrative domain or autonomous system. That sounds like a really scary prospect to me, but I'll admit I've never given serious consideration to such an arrangement before. Hopefully you know what you're doing.
Well, you can extend your MPLS-based services outside your domain through an NNI. Fair point, you generally won't run MPLS with your NNI partner, but they will carry your services across their own MPLS network toward their destination on the B-end. With such an arrangement, one can co-ordinate that capabilities between different networks are mirrored even though there isn't end-to-end control for either NNI partner. Mark.
