Abstract:
This document specifies how Ethernet VPN (EVPN) can be used as a
Network Virtualization Overlay (NVO) solution and explores the
various tunnel encapsulation options over IP and their impact on the
EVPN control-plane and procedures. In particular, the following
encapsulation options are analyzed: Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN),
Network Virtualization using Generic Routing Encapsulation (NVGRE),
and MPLS over Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE). This specification
is also applicable to Generic Network Virtualization Encapsulation
(GENEVE) encapsulation; however, some incremental work is required
which will be covered in a separate document. This document also
specifies new multi-homing procedures for split-horizon filtering and
mass-withdraw. It also specifies EVPN route constructions for
VXLAN/NVGRE encapsulations and Autonomous System Boundary Router
(ASBR) procedures for multi-homing of Network Virtualization (NV)
Edge devices.
