    With Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) VPN, the internal Border Gateway Protocol (iBGP) peer or Route Reflector (RR) sends all VPN4 and/or VPN6 prefixes to the PE routers. The PE router drops the VPN4/6 prefixes for which there is no importing VPN routing and forwarding (VRF). This is a behavior where the RR sends VPN4/6 prefixes to the PE router, which it does not need. This is a waste of processing power on the RR and the PE and a waste of bandwidth.

    With Route Target Constraint (RTC), the RR sends only wanted VPN4/6 prefixes to the PE. ‘Wanted’ means that the PE has VRF importing the specific prefixes.
