EVPN Commands

Sending/Receiving Routes

To enable the capability to send and receive EVPN routes, use the following command and select the l2vpn-evpn option:

enable bgp neighbor [all |remoteaddr] capability [ipv4-unicast | ipv4-multicast | ipv6-unicast | ipv6-multicast | vpnv4 | route-refresh | ipv4-vxlan | l2vpn-evpn]

To disable the capability to send and receive EVPN routes, use the following command and select the l2vpn-evpn:

disable bgp neighbor [all | remoteaddr] capability [ipv4-unicast | ipv4-multicast | ipv6-unicast | ipv6-multicast | vpnv4 | route-refresh | ipv4-vxlan | l2vpn-evpn]

Creating/Deleting EVPN Instances

To create an EVPN instance, use the following command:

create bgp evpn instance evpn_instance_name

The EVPN instance becomes active if the configured VNI matches the configured VNI of a virtual-network.

To delete an EVPN instance, use the following command:

delete bgp evpn instance evpn_instance_name

Configuring EVPN Instances

To add or delete a virtual extensible local area network (VXLAN) virtual network identifier (VNI) to an EVPN instance, use the following command:

configure bgp evpn instance evpn_instance_name vxlan vni [vni_value | none]

To configure route targets for an EVPN instance, use the following command:

configure bgp evpn instance evpn_instance_name route-target {import | export | both} [add | delete] route_target

To configure route distinguishers for an EVPN instance, use the following command:

configure bgp evpn instance evpn_instance_name rd [rd_value | auto]

Enabling/disabling Next-Hop Unchanged Behavior

To enable overriding the specification behavior with respect to the next-hop of routes advertised to EBGP peers, use the following command:

enable bgp {neighbor [remoteaddr | all]} {{address-family} l2vpn-evpn} next-hop-unchanged

To disable overriding the specification behavior with respect to the next-hop of routes advertised to EBGP peers, use the following command:

disable bgp {neighbor [remoteaddr | all]} {{address-family} l2vpn-evpn} next-hop-unchanged
