Hi Iftekhar,

Thank you for sharing. I’m not really an author of RFC7432, I just made a bit 
of contribution…
About this:

·         What is the performance metric for PE-CE load balancing 
(active-active)? Shouldn’t this be covered in the draft?
Sudhin>>> I think that is a functional parameter, functional parameters are not 
supported by this workgroup.
[Iftekhar] I am thinking there should be some metric to measure the level of 
load balancing  between PE-CE and PE-PE. Let us see what other folks have any 
opinion on this.

I think it does not add much value to measure load-balancing and it is 
challenging to test it in an objective way – there are many factors involved 
like the type of flows, hashing algorithms, etc. nothing of that is described 
in the relevant RFCs.

Thanks.
Jorge

Hi Iftekhar,

Let me thank you for the comment, now the 2 drafts are combined to one as per 
the community request, now onwards PBB-EVPN and EVPN will be covered in the 
below draft.

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-kishjac-bmwg-evpntest/

I will get back.

Regards,
Sudhin

Hi Jacob and Kishore,

It was nice meeting Jacob at the IETF97. I had a look at your draft and have 
following comments:

·         Why the draft scope does not explicitly mentions/includes RFC7432?
Sudhin>> it is updated in the latest combined draft.

[Iftekhar] Thanks. Please take a look at informative reference RFC7412. Is this 
a typo? Should it be RFC7432?



·         What is the impact on system performance (ARP memory for storing IP 
prefixes, lookups etc) and reliability (e.g., packet loss if any) when 
ARP-proxy is enabled (disabled)? Shouldn’t your draft cover those metrics on 
reduction (or increase) in flooding
Sudhin>>  Could you please let me know if you want to add arp scaling as 
parameter, we will do it. The reliability section community told us not to do 
it, there is a section we added named convergence to check how fast the DUT 
converge in terms of failure.

[Iftekhar] Yes, some scaling parameter would make sense to me.

in BUM traffic due to ARP-proxy enabling(disabling)?

·         What is the performance metric for PE-CE load balancing 
(active-active)? Shouldn’t this be covered in the draft?
Sudhin>>> I think that is a functional parameter, functional parameters are not 
supported by this workgroup.

[Iftekhar] I am thinking there should be some metric to measure the level of 
load balancing  between PE-CE and PE-PE. Let us see what other folks have any 
opinion on this.

Thanks,
Iftekhar

I support this work and believe this work would be useful for EVPN multi-vendor 
deployment scenarios.

Thanks
Iftekhar
