Hi Julius,

When I deployed this, I did not have to do anything at the instance or VM startup to produce the MAC+IP routes. I may have had a line or two in the FRR configuration on the host to make sure it was advertising the Mac-IP automatically. It may have been ‘advertise-svi-ip’.



Yes, that's it. No need to manually do anything.

advertise-all-vni
advertise-svi-ip

Also make sure you BGP neighbors are enabled under the EVPN family.

How is FRR informed of the IP's of the VMs? Does Cloudstack add static neighbor entries?

The bigger challenge I had in integrating this with an existing EVPN VXLAN deployment was handling VNI mapping, which was not so fun 😊

I did end up with a “successful” deployment, so let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Thanks,

Alex

Hi guys,

I see that some of you are using or have been experimenting with
EVPN-to-the-Host setup and I'd like to know how you are managing the
neighbor table entries to produce the Type-2 MAC+IP advertisements. Are
you using static entries added on VM startup (hook script, maybe?) or what?
