Section 6.2.1. says:

Hub_Site ------- (VRF_Hub)  PE1                               (VRF_Spoke)                                  /  |  Spoke_Site1 -------------------+   |                                     |  Spoke_Site2 -----------------------+

It should say:

Hub_Site ------- (VRF_Hub)  PE1                             (VRF_Spoke1) (VRF_Spoke2)                                  /            |  Spoke_Site1 -------------------+             |                                               |  Spoke_Site2 ---------------------------------+

Notes:

Submitter's comment:

On the picture, two spoke sites (“Spoke_Site1”, “Spoke_Site2”) are using the same VRF (“VRF_Spoke”) in PE1 router. For Hub and Spoke topology, it seems confusing. The spoke sites must not have a common routing table in the device and each spoke site must have its own VRF if there are more than one site using the same physical router.

Verifier's comment:

Subsequent discussion with the authors came to the conclusion that while the diagram is not technically wrong (for example, a single VRF could be used with policies to control inter-site communication), it would represent a very unusual configuration and therefore isn't a great choice as an example. The proposed replacement text represents the common deployment model and would be a better example.
