Hi, Sasha:
Using the concept of virtual segment in RFC 9784 to access the core EVPN service is similar with our proposal. The difference is that in RFC 9784, the access network is one MPLS based network, the PW can be identified by the corresponding MPLS label. But, in our proposal, the access network is one Layer 3 Native IP network, there is no MPLS deployed in the access network. Then, some new solution (especially how to identify the logical session, how to transfer them via the control plane and how to encapsulate them in the VxLAN packet should be defined. Does the above explanation address your concerns? If so, we can add some procedure description for our proposal according to another expert’s comments. Thanks!

At the first glance, this could address all the problems with which this draft tries to cope.
