Hi,

Hopefully a relatively easy discuss to resolve and this might just be my
ignorance here:

Section 2 states that I flag is used for an immutable ARP/ND Binding which is
for a configured ARP/ND entry.

Section 3.2 Reception of the EVPN ARP/ND Extended Community, has the following
text:

      *  Receiving multiple EVPN MAC/IP Advertisement routes with I=1
         for the same IP but different MAC is considered a
         misconfiguration.

But wouldn't this scenario occur if the configured ARP/ND entry was changed to
point to a new MAC address?
[jorge] well, it shouldn’t happen. The old route should be withdrawn before the 
new one is advertised. I added a sentence in case it helps:
“Receiving multiple EVPN MAC/IP Advertisement routes with I=1 for the same IP 
but different MAC is considered a misconfiguration. Note that if a configured 
IP1->MAC1 changes to point to a new MAC address, i.e., IP1->MAC2, the EVPN 
MAC/IP Advertisement route for IP1->MAC1 will be withdrawn before the EVPN 
MAC/IP Advertisement route for IP1->MAC2 is advertised.”
Would that help?


Regards,
Rob
