7-5 - Implement Ethernet VPNs (EVPN) Flashcards
3 higher level types of EVPN
EVPN native
-EVPN native with software MAC learning enables the distribution of the MAC addresses that are learned on one device to the other devices that connect to a network
- The MAC addresses are learned from the remote devices through BGP.
EVPN-VPWS
-point-to-point solution
-has the ability to forward traffic from one network to another without MAC lookup
-eliminates the need for signaling single-segment and multisegment PWs for point-to-point Ethernet services
-You can also configure the Pseudowire Headend (PWHE) interface and a bridge domain access pseudowire by using EVPN-VPWS.
EVPN IRB
-EVPN Integrated Routing and Bridging
-enables L3 forwarding among hosts across different IP subnets and still maintains the multihoming capabilites of EVPN
EVPN Native - Operational Steps
- Traffic arrives on one port in the bridge domain.
- The PE learns the source MAC address (AA in figure) and stores it as a dynamic MAC entry.
- The MAC address (AA) converts into a type-2 BGP route and transmits over BGP to all the remote PEs in the same EVI.
- The MAC address (AA) updates on the PE as a remote MAC address.
EVPN Native—Software MAC Learning Modes
- Single Home Device (SHD) or Single Home Network (SHN)
- Dual Home Device (DHD) or all-active (per-flow) load balancing
- DHD or single-active (per-service) load balancing

EVPN VPWS—Multihomed Configuration
T/F: The EVPN IRB feature enables a Layer 2 VPN and a Layer 3 VPN overlay that allows end hosts across the overlay to communicate with each other within the same subnet and across different subnets within the VPN.
True
Characteristics of EVPN IRB Operations
- Each PE has a local BVI Layer 3 interface with IP address.
- To send packets to other subnets, hosts use the destination IP and local BVI MAC.
- BVI in the local PE looks up the VRF table and routes the packet to the destination PE.
- The Destination PE looks up the VRF table for MACs that are tied to the destination host.
- The Remote PE forwards the packet to the destination host.
