Abstract:
EVPN and PBB-EVPN introduce a family of solutions for multipoint
Ethernet services over MPLS/IP network with many advanced
capabilities among which their multi-homing capabilities. These
solutions define two types of multi-homing for an Ethernet Segment
(ES): 1) Single-Active and 2) All-Active, where an Ethernet Segment
is defined as a set of links between the multi-homed device/network
and the set of PE devices that they are connected to.
Some Service Providers want to extend the concept of the physical
links in an ES to Ethernet Virtual Circuits (EVCs) where many of such
EVCs can be aggregated on a single physical External Network-to-
Network Interface (ENNI). An ES that consists of a set of EVCs
instead of physical links is referred to as a virtual ES (vES). This
draft describes the requirements and the extensions needed to support
vES in EVPN and PBB-EVPN.
