This new feature explains the use of the BGP Domain PATH (D-PATH) attribute that can be used to identify the EVPN domain(s) through which the EVPN MAC-IP routes have passed. EOS DCI Gateway provides new mechanisms for users to specify the EVPN Domain Identifier for its local and remote domains. DCI Gateways sharing the same redundancy group should share the same local domain identifier and same remote domain identifier.

Multihoming in EVPN allows a single customer edge (CE) to connect to multiple provider edges (PE or tunnel endpoint). In any multihoming EVPN instance (EVI), for each ethernet segment a designated forwarder is elected using EVPN type 4 Ethernet Segment (ES) routes sent through BGP. In single-active mode, the designated forwarder (DF) is responsible for sending and receiving all traffic. In all-active mode, the DF is only used to determine whether broadcast, unknown

EVPN MPLS VPWS (RFC 8214) provides the ability to forward customer traffic to / from a given attachment circuit (AC) without any MAC lookup / learning. The basic advantage of VPWS over an L2 EVPN is the reduced control plane signalling due to not exchanging MAC address information. In contrast to LDP pseudowires, EVPN MPLS VPWS uses BGP for signalling. Port based and VLAN based services are supported.

Flexible cross-connect service is an extension of EVPN MPLS Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS) (RFC 8214). It allows for multiplexing multiple attachment circuits across different Ethernet Segments and physical interfaces into a single EVPN VPWS service tunnel while still providing single-active and all-active multi-homing.

A forwarding equivalence class (FEC) entry is the data structure that holds all reachable vias where the packets should be sent to, for certain routes. Before this feature, a FEC could not contain both IPv4 next hop vias and IPv6 next hop vias. This feature starts supporting FECs that have both IPv4 next hop vias and IPv6 next hop vias. In an Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) FEC, some of the vias may have IPv4 next hop and others may have IPv6 next hop.

Prior to release EOS 4.29.1, a statically configured BGP neighbor, listen range or interface peer could reference a single peer group for inheriting configuration parameters. EOS 4.29.1 adds the ability for that peer group to inherit configuration from up to 8 additional “ancestor” peer groups. The term “leaf peer group” is given to the peer group which is directly referenced by the BGP neighbor, listen range or interface peer.

This feature enables the user to configure a list or range of BGP attributes to be ignored by the router on receipt of a BGP update message. The BGP attributes are discarded from the BGP update message, and unless the action of discarding an attribute causes the update message to trigger error handling, then the update message is parsed as normal.

In the BGP Update message’s AS_PATH, routers have the capability to perform route aggregation and combine the ASes an update has traversed, merging the discrete entries into an AS_SET. Routers can also do this within the local confederation with member AS numbers, using an AS_CONFED_SET. Route aggregation can be problematic as it blurs the semantics of what it means to originate a route. RFC 6472 recommends not using AS_SET or AS_CONFED_SET in BGP, and further justifies reasoning as to why, as well as provides a recommended way to handle updates with these messages.

Currently, EOS supports the receiving and transmitting of BGP Flowspec rules. Rules received can be installed locally as ACLs and/or transmitted to other BGP peers/route reflectors. EOS relies on external controllers to inject these flowspec rules. The feature will allow flowspec rules to be defined via CLI in a similar fashion as traffic-policies is currently done. These policies would then be redistributed into BGP. Once redistributed, the rules can be advertised to other BGP peers and optionally installed locally on the configured system.
