Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) Type 5 Routes Supported

For Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN), Type 5 Routes are now supported, except for on the default VR.

Important

Demo Feature: EVPN Type 5 Routes is a demonstration feature that is provided for testing purposes. Demonstration features are for lab use only and are not for use in a production environment. Please work with your Extreme Networks sales team to request a demonstration.

Supported Platforms

ExtremeSwitching X465, X590, X690, X695 series switches.

Limitations

The following are not supported:

Switching through a VXLAN tunnel to a remote L3 Anycast gateway.
Default VRs.

Note

By default, when a peer is created, the following line appears in the BGP configuration:

enable bgp neighbor neighbor_ip address-family l2vpn-evpn next-hop-unchanged

This is harmless if L2VPN EVPN is not enabled for the peer. However, it is required if the L2VPN EVPN capability is enabled for a peer. The default for this capability and address family will be changed to enabled in a subsequent release.

New CLI Commands

configure bgp evpn l3vni [vni_value | none] vr vr_name

show bgp evpn l3vni {vr vr_name}}

enable bgp export [static | direct] {address-family address_family} l2vpn-evpn {vr vr_name}

disable bgp export [static | direct] {address-family address_family} l2vpn-evpn {vr vr_name}
