Ethernet VPN (EVPN) networks normally require some measure of redundancy to reduce or eliminate the impact of outages and maintenance. RFC7432 describes four types of route to be exchanged through EVPN, with a built-in multihoming mechanism for redundancy. Prior to EOS 4.22.0F, MLAG was available as a redundancy option for EVPN with VXLAN, but not multihoming. EVPN multihoming is a multi-vendor standards-based redundancy solution that does not require a dedicated peer link and allows for more flexible configurations than MLAG, supporting peering on a per interface level rather than a per device level. It also supports a mass withdrawal mechanism to minimize traffic loss when a link goes down.

Normally, a switch traps L2 protocol frames to the CPU. However, certain use-cases may require these frames to be forwarded or dropped. And in cases where the L2 protocol frames are forwarded (eg: Pseudowire), we may require the frames to be trapped to the CPU or dropped. The L2 Protocol Forwarding feature provides a mechanism to control the behavior of L2 protocol frames received on a port or subinterface.

When the route to the destination host traverses an MPLS label-switched path (LSP), the label switching routers (LSRs) will also need to send ICMP reply messages to the originating host.
