The SR Linux EVPN-VXLAN solution enables Layer 2 Broadcast Domains (BDs) in multi-tenant data centers using EVPN for the control plane and VXLAN as the data plane. It includes the following features: EVPN for VXLAN tunnels (Layer 2), extending a …

Feb 3, 2023 · The Nokia DC architecture uses EVPN and VXLAN as the control and data plane solutions for Layer 2 connectivity within the DC and so does the SR OS. While EVPN VXLAN is used within the DC, some service providers use VPLS and H-VPLS as the solution to extend Layer 2 VPN connectivity.

EVPN is an IETF technology per RFC7432, BGP MPLS-Based Ethernet VPN, that uses a new BGP address family and allows VPLS services to be operated as IP-VPNs, where the MAC addresses and the information to set up the flooding trees are distributed by BGP. EVPN is defined to fill the gaps of other L2VPN technologies such as VPLS.

Jul 13, 2020 · This document describes how to deploy/configure Layer3 EVPN over Segment Routing (SR) Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) on Nexus 9300 products with PE-CE protocol as Open Shortest Path First (OSPF).

Jul 24, 2024 · Today' focus will be on deploying a Layer 3 Ethernet VPN (EVPN) in the SR Linux-powered DC fabric. We will be working with an interface-less 2 flavor of an L3 EVPN service that does not require the use of Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) interfaces, and as such has no need MAC VRF instances, ARP/ND entries synchronization, MAC/IP (RT2) and ...

This chapter describes the components of EVPN Layer 3 on SR Linux. The basic EVPN Layer 3 configuration model builds on the model for EVPN routes described in EVPN for Layer 2 ELAN services, extending it with an additional route type to support inter-subnet forwarding: EVPN IP prefix route (or type 5, RT5).

Oct 20, 2021 · This document describes how to deploy/configure Layer3 (L3) Ethernet VPN (EVPN) over Segment Routing (SR) Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) [Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) / Internal Border Gateway Protocol (iBGP)] on Nexus 9300 products.

Sep 8, 2022 · This document describes how to deploy L3 Ethernet VPN (EVPN) over Segment Routing (SR) Multiprotocol Label Switching on Nexus 9300 with external BGP.

Dec 20, 2023 · Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) is a standard technology in multi-tenant Data Centers (DCs) and provides a control plane framework for many functions. In this tutorial we will configure a VXLAN based Layer 2 EVPN service 3 in a tiny CLOS fabric and at the same get to know SR Linux better!

The 7750 SR, 7450 ESS, or 7950 XRS router SR OS EVPN implementation supports RFC 8560 so that EVPN-MPLS and VPLS can be integrated into the same network and within the same service.
