The following errata report has been submitted for RFC9135, "Integrated Routing and Bridging in Ethernet VPN (EVPN)"
-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: https://errata.rfc-editor.org/eid9000/ -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Alexander ("Sasha") Vainshtein <[email protected]> Section 5.1 and 5.2 says: Original Text ------------- In Section 5.1: This route MUST be advertised with two Route Targets, one corresponding to the MAC-VRF of the tenant's subnet and another corresponding to the tenant's IP-VRF. In Section 5.2: When a PE (e.g., PE2 in Figure 4 above) receives this EVPN MAC/IP Advertisement route, it performs the following: The MAC-VRF Route Target and Ethernet Tag, if the latter is non-zero, are used to identify the correct MAC-VRF and bridge table, and if they are found, the MAC address is imported. The IP-VRF Route Target is used to identify the correct IP-VRF, and if it is found, the IP address is imported. Corrected Text -------------- In Section 5,1: This route MUST be advertised with two Route Targets, one corresponding to the MAC-VRF of the tenant's subnet and another corresponding to the tenant's IP-VRF. The Route Targets corresponding to the tenants IP-VRF SHOULD be omitted if the IP address the NLRI of teh route is a link-local IPv6 address. In Section 5.2: When a PE (e.g., PE2 in Figure 4 above) receives this EVPN MAC/IP Advertisement route, it performs the following: The MAC-VRF Route Target and Ethernet Tag, if the latter is non-zero, are used to identify the correct MAC-VRF and bridge table, and if they are found, the MAC address is imported. If the IP address in the NLRI of the route is not an IPv6 link-local address, the IP-VRF Route Target is used to identify the correct IP-VRF, and if it is found, the IP address is imported. Notes ----- As per Section 2.5.6 of RFC 4291, "Routers must not forward any packets with Link-Local source or destination addresses to other links". Therefore, these addresses MUST NOT be in the IP-VRF in ingress PE, and there is no need to attach Route Targets of the IP-VRF in the egress PE because they are used solely for identification of the importing IP-VRF in the ingress PE. Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". Please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party will log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC9135 (draft-ietf-bess-evpn-inter-subnet-forwarding) -------------------------------------- Title : Integrated Routing and Bridging in Ethernet VPN (EVPN) Publication Date : October 2021 Author(s) : A.
