There are new mechanism being described in this document. ### S3.3 * I get that this functionality is highly desirable, but is there some loss of interoperability among vendor equipment if it's not present? In other words, why is this a MUST as opposed to SHOULD? Seems like the alternative is that the switching among neighbor EVCs is definitely less efficient, but could nevertheless be made to work. <PATRICE> EVPN is about provide L2 reachability (intra-subnet communication). Connected access device/network sharing common subnet must have connectivity. ### S3.4 * These don't seem like "requirements" to me, just service descriptions. ### S3.5 * R5a does not seem like a requirement. <PATRICE> What are you suggesting for these 2 comments? _______________________________________________ BESS mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/bess
