Hi,

Remember that the same ES can be shared by Eline, ELAN, Etree and other EVPN 
services, in which you still need the ESI label. So I would follow RFC7432 for 
this.
On reception a PE should ignore the ESI label value if only EVPN VPWS services 
are running.

As a side note, this document is trying to clarify that the ESI label may be 
zero if no ESI-label based split-horizon is used:

Thx
Jorge

Subject: Re: [bess] Question on split horizon label for EVPN VPWS Multi homing

Hi,

section 3.1 of EVPN VPWS rfc 8214 specify's the usage of EAD per ES route and 
ESI label extended community for EVPN VPWS. it is not very clear on what should 
sender fill in the ESI label field for EVPN VPWS multi homing. as there is no 
concept of flooding and split horizon procedures are not applicable for VPWS.. 
please clarify on this.

Regards,
Gangadhar
