EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment
draft-ietf-bess-evpn-virtual-eth-segment-07
Abstract
EVPN and PBB-EVPN introduce a family of solutions for multipoint
Ethernet services over MPLS/IP network with many advanced features
among which their multi-homing capabilities. These solutions
introduce Single-Active and All-Active for an Ethernet Segment (ES),
itself defined as a set of physical links between the multi-homed
device/network and a set of PE devices that they are connected to.
This document extends the Ethernet Segment concept so that an ES can
be associated to a set of EVCs (e.g., VLANs) or other objects such as
MPLS Label Switch Paths (LSPs) or Pseudowires (PWs), referred to as
Virtual Ethernet Segments (vES). This draft describes the
requirements and the extensions needed to support vES in EVPN and
PBB-EVPN.

1. Introduction
[RFC7432] and [RFC7623] introduce a family of solutions for
multipoint Ethernet services over MPLS/IP network with many advanced
features among which their multi-homing capabilities. These
solutions introduce Single-Active and All-Active for an Ethernet
Segment (ES), itself defined as a set of links between the
multi-homed device/network and a set of PE devices that they are
connected to.
This document extends the Ethernet Segment concept so that an ES can
be associated to a set of EVCs (e.g., VLANs) or other objects such as
MPLS Label Switch Paths (LSPs) or Pseudowires (PWs), referred to as
Virtual Ethernet Segments (vES). This draft describes the
requirements and the extensions needed to support vES in EVPN and
PBB-EVPN.
1.1. Virtual Ethernet Segments in Access Ethernet Networks
Some Service Providers (SPs) want to extend the concept of the
physical links in an ES to Ethernet Virtual Circuits (EVCs) where
many of such EVCs (e.g., VLANs) can be aggregated on a single
physical External Network-to-Network Interface (ENNI). An ES that
consists of a set of EVCs instead of physical links is referred to as
a virtual ES (vES). Figure 1 depicts two PE devices (PE1 and PE2)
each with an ENNI where a number of vESes are aggregated on - each of
which through its associated EVC.

ENNIs are commonly used to reach off-network / out-of-franchise
customer sites via independent Ethernet access networks or third-
party Ethernet Access Providers (EAP) (see Figure 1). ENNIs can
aggregate traffic from hundreds to thousands of vESes, where each vES
is represented by its associated EVC on that ENNI. As a result,
ENNIs and their associated EVCs are a key element of SP off-networks
that are carefully designed and closely monitored.
In order to meet customers' Service Level Agreements (SLA), SPs build
redundancy via multiple EVPN PEs and across multiple ENNIs (as shown
in Figure 1) where a given vES can be multi-homed to two or more EVPN
PE devices (on two or more ENNIs) via their associated EVCs. Just
like physical ES's in [RFC7432] and [RFC7623] solutions, these vESes
can be single-homed or multi-homed ES's and when multi-homed, then
can operate in either Single-Active or All-Active redundancy modes.
In a typical SP off-network scenario, an ENNI can be associated with
several thousands of single-homed vESes, several hundreds of Single-
Active vESes and it may also be associated with tens or hundreds of
All-Active vESes.

1.2. Virtual Ethernet Segments in Access MPLS Networks
Other Service Providers (SPs) want to extend the concept of the
physical links in an ES to individual Pseudowires (PWs) or to MPLS
Label Switched Paths (LSPs) in Access MPLS networks - i.e., a vES
consisting of a set of PWs or a set of LSPs. Figure 2 illustrates
this concept.

Figure 2: DHN and SH on MPLS Aggregation networks
In some cases, Service Providers use MPLS Aggregation Networks that
belong to separate administrative entities or third parties as a way
to get access to their own IP/MPLS Core network infrastructure. This
is the case illustrated in Figure 2.
In such scenarios, a virtual ES (vES) is defined as a set of
individual PWs if they cannot be aggregated into a common LSP. If
the aggregation of PWs is possible, the vES can be associated to an
LSP in a given PE. In the example of Figure 2, EVC3 is connected to
a VPWS instance in AG2 that is connected to PE1 and PE2 via PW3 and
PW5 respectively. EVC4 is connected to a separate VPWS instance on
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
AG2 that gets connected to an EVI on PE1 and PE2 via PW4 and PW6,
respectively. Since the PWs for the two VPWS instances can be
aggregated into the same LSPs going to the MPLS network, a common
virtual ES can be defined for LSP1 and LSP2. This vES will be shared
by two separate EVIs in the EVPN network.
In some cases, this aggregation of PWs into common LSPs may not be
possible. For instance, if PW3 were terminated into a third PE, e.g.
PE3, instead of PE1, the vES would need to be defined on a per
individual PW on each PE, i.e. PW3 and PW5 would belong to ES-1,
whereas PW4 and PW6 would be associated to ES-2.
For MPLS/IP access networks where a vES represents a set of PWs or
LSPs, this document extends Single-Active multi-homing procedures of
[RFC7432] and [RFC7623] to vES. The vES extension to All-Active
multi-homing is outside of the scope of this document for MPLS/IP
access networks.
This draft describes requirements and the extensions needed to
support a vES in [RFC7432] and [RFC7623]. Section 3 lists the set of
requirements for a vES. Section 4 describes extensions for a vES
that are applicable to EVPN solutions including [RFC7432] and
[RFC7209]. Furthermore, these extensions meet the requirements
described in Section 3. Section 4 gives solution overview and
Section 5 describes failure handling, recovery, scalability, and fast
convergence of [RFC7432] and [RFC7623] for vESes.

Segment (vES) for (PBB-)EVPN solutions. These requirements are in
addition to the ones described in [RFC8214], [RFC7432], and
[RFC7623].
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
3.1. Single-Homed and Multi-Homed vES
A PE needs to support the following types of vESes:
(R1a) A PE MUST handle single-homed vESes on a single physical port
(e.g., single ENNI)
(R1b) A PE MUST handle a mix of Single-Homed vESes and Single-Active
multi-homed vESes simultaneously on a single physical port (e.g.,
single ENNI). Single-Active multi-homed vESes will be simply
referred to as Single-Active vESes through the rest of this document.
(R1c) A PE MAY handle All-Active multi-homed vESes on a single
physical port. All-Active multi-homed vESes will be simply referred
to as All-Active vESes through the rest of this document.
(R1d) A PE MAY handle a mix of All-Active vESes along with other
types of vESes on a single physical port.
(R1e) A Multi-Homed vES (Single-Active or All-Active) can be spread
across two or more ENNIs, on any two or more PEs.
3.2. Scalability
A single physical port (e.g., ENNI) can be associated with many
vESes. The following requirements give a quantitative measure for
each vES type.
(R2a) A PE SHOULD handle very large number of Single-Homed vESes on a
single physical port (e.g., thousands of vESes on a single ENNI).
(R2b) A PE SHOULD handle large number of Single-Active vESes on a
single physical port (e.g., hundreds of vESes on a single ENNI).
(R2c) A PE MAY handle large number of All-Active vESes on a single
physical port (e.g., hundreds of vESes on a single ENNI).
(R2d) A PE SHOULD handle the above scale for a mix of Single-homed
vESes and Single-Active vESes simultaneously on a single physical
port (e.g., single ENNI).
(R2e) A PE MAY handle the above sale for a mix of All-Active vESes
along with other types of vESes on a single physical port.
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
3.3. Local Switching
Many vESes of different types can be aggregated on a single physical
port on a PE device and some of these vES can belong to the same
service instance (or customer). This translates into the need for
supporting local switching among the vESes of the same service
instance on the same physical port (e.g., ENNI) of the PE.
(R3a) A PE MUST support local switching among different vESes
belonging to the same service instance (or customer) on a single
physical port. For example, in Figure 1, PE1 MUST support local
switching between CE11 and CE12 (both belonging to customer A) that
are mapped to two Single-homed vESes on ENNI1. In case of Single-
Active vESes, the local switching is performed among active EVCs
belonging to the same service instance on the same ENNI.
3.4. EVC Service Types
A physical port (e.g., ENNI) of a PE can aggregate many EVCs each of
which is associated with a vES. Furthermore, an EVC may carry one or
more VLANs. Typically, an EVC carries a single VLAN and thus it is
associated with a single broadcast domain. However, there is no
restriction on an EVC to carry more than one VLAN.
(R4a) An EVC can be associated with a single broadcast domain - e.g.,
VLAN-based service or VLAN bundle service.
(R4b) An EVC MAY be associated with several broadcast domains - e.g.,
VLAN-aware bundle service.
In the same way, a PE can aggregate many LSPs and PWs. In the case
of individual PWs per vES, typically a PW is associated with a single
broadcast domain, but there is no restriction on the PW to carry more
than one VLAN if the PW is of type Raw mode.
(R4c) A PW can be associated with a single broadcast domain - e.g.,
VLAN-based service or VLAN bundle service.
(R4d) An PW MAY be associated with several broadcast domains - e.g.,
VLAN-aware bundle service.
3.5. Designated Forwarder (DF) Election
Section 8.5 of [RFC7432] describes the default procedure for DF
election in EVPN which is also used in [RFC7623] and [RFC8214].
[RFC8584] describes the additional procedures for DF election in
EVPN. These DF election procedures is performed at the granularity
of (ESI, Ethernet Tag). In case of a vES, the same EVPN default
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
procedure for DF election also applies; however, at the granularity
of (vESI, Ethernet Tag); where vESI is the virtual Ethernet Segment
Identifier and the Ethernet Tag field is represented by and I-SID in
PBB-EVPN and by a VLAN ID (VID) in EVPN. As in [RFC7432], this
default procedure for DF election at the granularity of (vESI,
Ethernet Tag) is also referred to as "service carving". With service
carving, it is desirable to evenly partition the DFs for different
vES's among different PEs, thus evenly distributing the traffic among
different PEs. The following list the requirements apply to DF
election of vES's for (PBB-)EVPN.
(R5a) A vES with m EVCs can be distributed among n ENNIs belonging to
p PEs in any arbitrary order; where n >= p >= m. For example, if
there is an vES with 2 EVCs and there are 5 ENNIs on 5 PEs (PE1
through PE5), then vES can be dual-homed to PE2 and PE4 and the DF
election must be performed between PE2 and PE4.
(R5b) Each vES MUST be identified by its own virtual ESI (vESI).
3.6. OAM
In order to detect the failure of an individual EVC and perform DF
election for its associated vES as the result of this failure, each
EVC should be monitored independently.
(R6a) Each EVC SHOULD be monitored for its health independently.
(R6b) A single EVC failure (among many aggregated on a single
physical port/ENNI) MUST trigger DF election for its associated vES.
3.7. Failure and Recovery
(R7a) Failure and failure recovery of an EVC for a Single-homed vES
SHALL NOT impact any other EVCs within its service instance or any
other service instances. In other words, for PBB-EVPN, it SHALL NOT
trigger any MAC flushing both within its own I-SID as well as other
I-SIDs.
(R7b) In case of All-Active vES, failure and failure recovery of an
EVC for that vES SHALL NOT impact any other EVCs within its service
instance or any other service instances. In other words, for PBB-
EVPN, it SHALL NOT trigger any MAC flushing both within its own I-SID
as well as other I-SIDs.
(R7c) Failure and failure recovery of an EVC for a Single-Active vES
SHALL impact only its own service instance. In other words, for PBB-
EVPN, MAC flushing SHALL be limited to the associated I-SID only and
SHALL NOT impact any other I-SIDs.
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
(R7d) Failure and failure recovery of an EVC for a Single-Active vES
MAY only impact C-MACs associated with MHD/MHNs for that service
instance. In other words, MAC flushing SHOULD be limited to single
service instance (I-SID in the case of PBB-EVPN) and only C-MACs for
Single-Active MHD/MHNs.
3.8. Fast Convergence
Since a large number of EVCs (and their associated vESes) are
aggregated via a single physical port (e.g., ENNI), then the failure
of that physical port impacts a large number of vESes and triggers
equally many ES route withdrawals. Formulating, sending, receiving,
and processing such large number of BGP messages can introduce delay
in DF election and convergence time. As such, it is highly desirable
to have a mass-withdraw mechanism similar to the one in [RFC7432] for
withdrawing many Ethernet A-D per ES routes.
(R8a) There SHOULD be a mechanism equivalent to EVPN mass-withdraw
such that upon an ENNI failure, only a single BGP message is needed
to indicate to the remote PEs to trigger DF election for all impacted
vES associated with that ENNI.
4. Solution Overview
The solutions described in [RFC7432] and [RFC7623] are leveraged
as-is with the modification that the ESI assignment is performed for
an EVC or a group of EVCs or LSPs/PWs instead of a link or a group of
physical links. In other words, the ESI is associated with a virtual
ES (vES), hereby referred to as vESI.
For the EVPN solution, everything basically remains the same except
for the handling of physical port failure where many vESes can be
impacted. Sections 5.1 and 5.3 below describe the handling of
physical port/link failure for EVPN. In a typical multi-homed
operation, MAC addresses are learned behind a vES and are advertised
with the ESI corresponding to the vES (i.e., vESI). EVPN aliasing
and mass-withdraw operations are performed with respect to vES
identifier: the Ethernet A-D routes for these operations are
advertised with vESI instead of ESI.
For PBB-EVPN solution, the main change is with respect to the B-MAC
address assignment which is performed similar to what is described in
section 7.2.1.1 of [RFC7623] with the following refinements:
o One shared B-MAC address SHOULD be used per PE for the
single-homed vESes. In other words, a single B-MAC is shared for
all single-homed vESes on that PE.
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
o One shared B-MAC address SHOULD be used per PE per physical port
(e.g., ENNI) for the Single-Active vESes. In other words, a
single B-MAC is shared for all Single-Active vESes that share the
same ENNI.
o One shared B-MAC address MAY be used for all Single-Active vESes
on that PE.
o One B-MAC address SHOULD be used per set of EVCs representing an
All-Active vES. In other words, a single B-MAC address is used
per vES for All-Active scenarios.
o A single B-MAC address MAY also be used per vES per PE for Single-
Active scenarios.

4.1. EVPN DF Election for vES
The procedure for service carving for virtual Ethernet Segments is
the same as the ones outlined in section 8.5 of [RFC7432] and
[RFC8584] except for the fact that ES is replaced with vES.
For the sake of clarity and completeness, the default DF election
procedure of [RFC7432] is repeated below:
1. When a PE discovers the vESI or is configured with the vESI
associated with its attached vES, it advertises an Ethernet
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
Segment route with the associated ES-Import extended community
attribute.
2. The PE then starts a timer (default value = 3 seconds) to allow
the reception of Ethernet Segment routes from other PE nodes
connected to the same vES. This timer value MUST be same across
all PEs connected to the same vES.
3. When the timer expires, each PE builds an ordered list of the IP
addresses of all the PE nodes connected to the vES (including
itself), in increasing numeric value. Each IP address in this
list is extracted from the "Originator Router's IP address" field
of the advertised Ethernet Segment route. Every PE is then given
an ordinal indicating its position in the ordered list, starting
with 0 as the ordinal for the PE with the numerically lowest IP
address. The ordinals are used to determine which PE node will
be the DF for a given EVPN instance on the vES using the
following rule: Assuming a redundancy group of N PE nodes, the PE
with ordinal i is the DF for an EVPN instance with an associated
Ethernet Tag value of V when (V mod N) = i. It should be noted
that using "Originator Router's IP address" field in the Ethernet
Segment route to get the PE IP address needed for the ordered
list, allows for a CE to be multi-homed across different ASes if
such need ever arises.
4. The PE that is elected as a DF for a given EVPN instance will
unblock traffic for that EVPN instance. Note that the DF PE
unblocks all traffic in both ingress and egress directions for
Single-Active vES and unblocks multi-destination in egress
direction for All-Active Multi-homed vES. All non-DF PEs block
all traffic in both ingress and egress directions for Single-
Active vES and block multi-destination traffic in the egress
direction for All-Active vES.
In the case of an EVC failure, the affected PE withdraws its Virtual
Ethernet Segment route if there are no more EVCs associated to the
vES in the PE. This will re-trigger the DF Election procedure on all
the PEs in the Redundancy Group. For PE node failure, or upon PE
commissioning or decommissioning, the PEs re-trigger the DF Election
procedure across all affected vESes. In case of a Single-Active,
when a service moves from one PE in the Redundancy Group to another
PE as a result of DF re-election, the PE, which ends up being the
elected DF for the service, SHOULD trigger a MAC address flush
notification towards the associated vES. This can be done, for e.g.
using IEEE 802.1ak MVRP 'new' declaration.
For LSP-based and PW-based vES, the non-DF PE SHOULD signal PW-status
'standby' to the Aggregation PE (e.g., AG PE in Figure 2), and a new
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
DF PE MAY send an LDP MAC withdraw message as a MAC address flush
notification. It should be noted that the PW-status is signaled for
the scenarios where there is a one-to-one mapping between EVI/BD and
the PW.
4.2. Grouping and Route Colouring for vES
Physical ports (e.g. ENNI) which aggregate a large number of EVCs
are 'coloured' to enable the grouping schemes described below.
By default, the MAC address of the corresponding port (e.g. ENNI) is
used to represent the 'colour' of the port, and the EVPN Router's MAC
Extended Community defined in
[I-D.ietf-bess-evpn-inter-subnet-forwarding] is used to signal this
colour.
The difference between colouring mechanism for EVPN and PBB-EVPN is
that for EVPN, the extended community is advertised with the Ethernet
A-D per ES route whereas for PBB-EVPN, the extended community may be
advertised with the B-MAC route.
The following sections describe Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES and
Grouping B-MAC, will become crucial for port failure handling as seen
in Section 5.3, Section 5.4 and Section 5.5 below.
4.2.1. EVPN Route Colouring for vES
When a PE discovers the vESI or is configured with the vESI
associated with its attached vES, an Ethernet-Segment route and
Ethernet A-D per ES route are generated using the vESI identifier.
These Ethernet-Segment and Ethernet A-D per ES routes specific to
each vES are coloured with an attribute representing their
association to a physical port (e.g. ENNI).
The corresponding port 'colour' is encoded in the EVPN Router's MAC
Extended Community defined in
[I-D.ietf-bess-evpn-inter-subnet-forwarding] and advertised along
with the Ethernet Segment and Ethernet A-D per ES routes for this
vES.
The PE also constructs a special Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES route
which represents all the vES associated with the port (e.g. ENNI).
The corresponding port 'colour' is encoded in the ESI field. For
this encoding, Type 3 ESI ([RFC7432] Section 5) is used with the MAC
field set to the colour (MAC address) of the port and the 3-octet
local discriminator field set to 0xFFFFFF.
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 14]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
The ESI label extended community ([RFC7432] Section 7.5) is not
relevant to Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES. The label value is NOT
used for encalsulating BUM packets for any split-horizon function and
the 'Single-Active' but is left as 0. To save label space, all
Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES of a PE SHOULD use same label value.
This Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES is advertised with a list of Route
Targets corresponding to the impacted service instances. If the
number of Route Targets is more than can fit into a single attribute,
then a set of Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES routes are advertised.
4.2.2. PBB-EVPN Route Colouring for vES
For PBB-EVPN, especially where there here are large number of service
instances (i.e., I-SIDs) associated with each EVC the PE MAY colour
each vES B-MAC route with an attribute representing their association
to a physical port (e.g. ENNI).
The corresponding port 'colour' is encoded in the EVPN Router's MAC
Extended Community defined in
[I-D.ietf-bess-evpn-inter-subnet-forwarding] and advertised along
with the B-MAC for this vES in PBB-EVPN.
The PE MAY then also construct a special Grouping B-MAC route which
represents all the vES associated with the port (e.g. ENNI). The
corresponding port 'colour' is encoded directly into this special
Grouping B-MAC route.
5. Failure Handling and Recovery
There are a number of failure scenarios to consider such as:
A: CE uplink port failure
B: Ethernet Access Network failure
C: PE access-facing port or link failure
D: PE node failure
E: PE isolation from IP/MPLS network
[RFC7432], [RFC7623], and [RFC8214] solutions provide protection
against such failures as described in the corresponding references.
In the presence of virtual Ethernet Segments (vESes) in these
solutions, besides the above failure scenarios, individual EVC
failure is an additional scenario to consider. Handling vES failure
scenarios implies that individual EVCs or PWs need to be monitored
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 15]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
and upon detection of failure or restoration of services, appropriate
DF election and failure recovery mechanisms are executed.
[RFC7023] is used for monitoring EVCs and upon failure detection of a
given EVC, DF election procedure per Section 4.1 is executed. For
PBB-EVPN, some extensions are needed to handle the failure and
recovery procedures of [RFC7623] in order to meet the above
requirements. These extensions are described in the next section.
[RFC4377] and [RFC6310] are used for monitoring the status of LSPs
and/or PWs associated to vES.

Figure 4: Failure Scenarios A,B,C,D and E
5.1. EVC Failure Handling for Single-Active vES in EVPN
In [RFC7432], when a DF PE connected to a Single-Active multi-homed
Ethernet Segment loses connectivity to the segment, due to link or
port failure, it signals to the remote PEs to invalidate all MAC
addresses associated with that Ethernet Segment. This is done by
means of a mass-withdraw message, by withdrawing the Ethernet A-D per
ES route. It should be noted that for dual-homing use cases where
there is only a single backup path, MAC invalidating can be avoided
by the remote PEs as they can update their nexthop associated with
the affected MAC entries to the backup path per procedure described
in section 8.2 of [RFC7432].
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
In case of an EVC failure which impacts a single vES, this same EVPN
procedure is used. In this case, the mass-withdraw is conveyed by
withdrawing the Ethernet A-D per vES route carrying the vESI
representing the failed EVC. The remote PEs upon receiving this
message perform the same procedures outlined in section 8.2 of
[RFC7432].
5.2. EVC Failure Handling for Single-Active vES in PBB-EVPN
In [RFC7432], when a PE connected to a Single-Active Ethernet Segment
loses connectivity to the segment, due to link or port failure, it
signals the remote PE to flush all C-MAC addresses associated with
that Ethernet Segment. This is done by updating the advertised a
B-MAC route's MAC Mobility Extended community.
In case of an EVC failure that impacts a single vES, if the above
PBB-EVPN procedure is used, it results in excessive C-MAC flushing
because a single physical port can support large number of EVCs (and
their associated vESes) and thus updating the advertised B-MAC
corresponding to the physical port, with MAC mobility Extended
community, will result in flushing C-MAC addresses not just for the
impacted EVC but for all other EVCs on that port.
In order to reduce the scope of C-MAC flushing to only the impacted
service instances (the service instance(s) impacted by the EVC
failure), the PBB-EVPN C-MAC flushing needs to be adapted on a per
service instance basis (i.e., per I-SID).
[I-D.ietf-bess-pbb-evpn-isid-cmacflush] introduces B-MAC/I-SID route
where existing PBB-EVPN B-MAC route is modified to carry an I-SID in
the "Ethernet Tag ID" field instead of NULL value. This field
indicates to the receiving PE, to flush all C-MAC addresses
associated with that I-SID for that B-MAC. This C-MAC flushing
mechanism per I-SID SHOULD be used in case of EVC failure impacting a
vES. Since typically an EVC maps to a single broadcast domain and
thus a single service instance, the affected PE only needs to
advertise a single B-MAC/I-SID route. However, if the failed EVC
carries multiple VLANs each with its own broadcast domain, then the
affected PE needs to advertise multiple B-MAC/I-SID routes - one for
each VLAN (broadcast domain) - i.e., one for each I-SID. Each B-MAC/
I-SID route basically instructs the remote PEs to perform flushing
for C-MACs corresponding to the advertised B-MAC only for the
advertised I-SID.
The C-MAC flushing based on B-MAC/I-SID route works fine when there
are only a few VLANs (e.g., I-SIDs) per EVC. However if the number
of I-SIDs associated with a failed EVC is large, then it is
recommended to assign a B-MAC per vES and upon EVC failure, the
affected PE simply withdraws this B-MAC message to other PEs.
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 17]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
5.3. Port Failure Handling for Single-Active vESes in EVPN
When a large number of EVCs are aggregated via a single physical port
on a PE, where each EVC corresponds to a vES, then the port failure
impacts all the associated EVCs and their corresponding vESes. If
the number of EVCs corresponding to the Single-Active vESes for that
physical port is in thousands, then thousands of service instances
are impacted. Therefore, the propagation if failure in BGP needs to
address all these impacted service instances. In order to achieve
this, the following extensions are added to the baseline EVPN
mechanism:
1. When a PE advertises an Ethernet A-D per ES route for a given
vES, it is coloured as described in Section 4.2.1 using the
physical port MAC by default. The receiving PEs take note of
this colour and create a list of vESes for this colour.
2. The PE also advertises a special Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES
route for that colour, which represents all the vES associated
with the port.
3. Upon a port failure (e.g., ENNI failure), the PE sends a
mass-withdraw message by withdrawing the Grouping Ethernet A-D
per ES route.
4. The remote PEs upon receiving this message, by identifying the
Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES route, detect the special vES
mass-withdraw message. The remote PEs then access the list
created in (1) of the vES's for the specified colour, and
initiate locally MAC address invalidating procedures for each of
the vES's in the list.
In scenarios where a logical ENNI is used the above procedure equally
applies. The logical ENNI is represented by a Grouping Ethernet A-D
per ES where the Type 3 ESI and the 6 bytes used in the ENNI's ESI
MAC address field is used as a colour for vESes as described above
and in Section 4.2.1.
5.4. Port Failure Handling for Single-Active vESes in PBB-EVPN
When a large number of EVCs are aggregated via a single physical port
on a PE, where each EVC corresponds to a vES, then the port failure
impacts all the associated EVCs and their corresponding vESes. If
the number of EVCs corresponding to the Single-Active vESes for that
physical port is in thousands, then thousands of service instances
(I-SIDs) are impacted. In such failure scenarios, the following two
MAC flushing mechanisms per [RFC7623] can be performed.
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 18]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
1. If the MAC address of the physical port is used for PBB
encapsulation as B-MAC SA, then upon the port failure, the PE
MUST use the EVPN MAC route withdrawal message to signal the
flush.
2. If the PE shared MAC address is used for PBB encapsulation as
B-MAC SA, then upon the port failure, the PE MUST re-advertise
this MAC route with the MAC Mobility Extended Community to signal
the flush.
The first method is recommended because it reduces the scope of
flushing the most.
As noted above, the advertisement of the extended community along
with B-MAC route for colouring purposes is optional and only
recommended when there are many vESes per physical port and each vES
is associated with very large number of service instances (i.e.,
large numbe of I-SIDs).
If there are large number of service instances (i.e., I-SIDs)
associated with each EVC, and if there is a B-MAC assigned per vES as
recommended in the above section, then in order to handle port
failure efficiently, the following extensions are added to the
baseline PBB-EVPN mechanism:
1. Each vES MAY be coloured with a MAC address representing the
physical port similar to the colouring mechanism for EVPN. In
other words, each B-MAC representing a vES is advertised with the
'colour' of the physical port per Section 4.2.2. The receiving
PEs take note of this colour being advertised along with the
B-MAC route and for each such colour, create a list of vESes
associated with this colour.
2. The PE also advertises a special Grouping B-MAC route for that
colour (consisting by default of port MAC address), which
represents all the vES associated with the port.
3. Upon a port failure (e.g., ENNI failure), the PE sends a
mass-withdraw message by withdrawing the Grouping B-MAC route.
4. The remote PEs upon receiving this message, by identifying the
Grouping B-MAC route, detect the special vES mass-withdraw
message. The remote PEs then access the list created in (1) of
the vES's for the specified colour, and flush C-MACs associated
with the failed physical port.

Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
5.5. Fast Convergence in (PBB-)EVPN
As described above, when a large number of EVCs are aggregated via a
physical port on a PE, and where each EVC corresponds to a vES, then
the port failure impacts all the associated EVCs and their
corresponding vESes. Two actions must be taken as the result of such
port failure:
o For EVPN initiate mass-withdraw procedure for all vESes associated
with the failed port to invalidate MACs and for PBB-EVPN flush all
C-MACs associated with the failed port across all vESes and the
impacted I-SIDs
o DF election for all impacted vESes associated with the failed port
Section 5.3 already describes how to perform mass-withdraw for all
affected vESes and invalidating MACs using a single BGP withdrawal of
the Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES route. Section 5.4 describes how to
only flush C-MAC address associated with the failed physical port
(e.g., optimum C-MAC flushing) as well as, optionally, the withdrawal
of a Grouping B-MAC route.
This section describes how to perform DF election in the most optimal
way - e.g., to trigger DF election for all impacted vESes (which can
be very large) among the participating PEs via a single BGP message
as opposed to sending large number of BGP messages (one per vES).
This section assumes that the MAC flushing mechanism described in
Section 5.4, bullet (1) is used and route colouring is used.

Figure 5: Fast Convergence Upon ENNI Failure
The procedure for colouring vES Ethernet Segment routes is described
in Section 4.2. The following describes the procedure for fast
convergence for DF election using these coloured routes:
1. When a vES is configured, the PE advertises the Ethernet Segment
route for this vES with a colour corresponding to the physical
port.
2. All receiving PEs (in the redundancy group) take note of this
colour and create a list of vESes for this colour.
3. Recall, that the PE is advertising also a Grouping Ethernet A-D
per ES (for EVPN) and a Grouping B-MAC (for PBB-EVPN)
representing this colour and vES grouping.
4. Upon a port failure (e.g., ENNI failure), the PE withdraws this
previously advertised Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES or Grouping
B-MAC associated with the failed port. The PE should prioritize
sending these Grouping routes withdraw message over individual
vES route withdrawal messages of impacted vESes.
5. On reception of Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES or Grouping B-MAC
route withdrawal, other PEs in the redundancy group initiate DF
election procedures across all their affected vESes.
Sajassi, et al. Expires January 7, 2022 [Page 21]
Internet-Draft EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment July 2021
6. The PE with the physical port failure (ENNI failure), also sends
vES route withdrawal for every impacted vES. The other PEs upon
receiving these messages, clear up their BGP tables. It should
be noted the vES route withdrawal messages are not used for
executing DF election procedures by the receiving PEs when
Grouping Ethernet A-D per ES or Grouping B-MAC withdrawal has
been previously received.

This document does not introduce any new security considerations
beyond that of [RFC7432] and [RFC7623] because advertisements and
processing of Ethernet Segment route for vES in this document follows
that of physical ES in those RFCs.
