BGP Auto-peering Feature Limitations

The following features are not supported in BGP auto-peering:
  • Stacking
  • AutoBGP LAG with Extended Edge Switching
  • Static LAG attachments to AutoBGP
  • AutoBGP links on Extended Edge Switching ports
  • MPLS, VPLS, L2VPN, L3VPN
  • PIM Snooping, PIM-SM, SSM mode
  • OSPF, OSPFv3, ISIS, RIP, RIPNG per VRF
  • IPv6 within VRF
  • VRF route leaking
  • EVPN multi-homing Ethernet segments
  • Explicit-remotes mode used for VNET flooding
  • VXLAN symmetric routing
  • AutoBGP MLAG
  • EVPN does not interoperate with third-party devices
The following limitations apply:
  • Manual configuration of MLAG is supported. One MLAG peer per leaf node.
  • Loss of first multicast packet in the flow is expected due to slow path forwarding.
  • Static router must be an external router per VRF.
  • VLANS spanning multiple bridges, where each bridge is AutoBGP LAG connected, must be VXLAN-based, or AutoBGP LAG replaced with MLAG.
  • VLANs behind a bridge that is AutoBGP LAG connected and AutoBGP node has same VLAN ports must be VXLAN-based or AutoBGP LAG replaced with MLAG.
