EVPN Interworking with IPVPN
draft-ietf-bess-evpn-ipvpn-interworking-04
Abstract
EVPN is used as a unified control plane for tenant network intra and
inter-subnet forwarding. When a tenant network spans not only EVPN
domains but also domains where BGP VPN-IP or IP families provide
inter-subnet forwarding, there is a need to specify the interworking
aspects between BGP domains of type EVPN, VPN-IP and IP, so that the
end to end tenant connectivity can be accomplished. This document
specifies how EVPN interworks with VPN-IPv4/VPN-IPv6 and IPv4/IPv6
BGP families for inter-subnet forwarding.
