Abstract

This document proposes an enhanced EVPN mechanism, segment-based EVPN (S-EVPN). It satisfies the requirements of PBB-EVPN but does not require PBB implementation on PE. The solution uses a global label for each Ethernet Segment (ES) in an EVPN. It inserts the source ES label into packets at ingress PE and learns C-MAC and source ES label binding at egress PE. The solution makes the implementation easier and closer to E-VPN compared to PBB-EVPN but has the PBB-EVPN benefits.
