6 Towards EVPN Solve Challenges of VPLS for All-Active Redundancy Existing VPLS solutions do not offer an All-Active per-flow redundancy Looping of Traffic Flooded from PE Duplicate Frames from Floods from the Core M1 M1 Echo! CE2 M2 PE4 CE2 Duplicate! MAC Flip-Flopping over Pseudowire E.g. Port-Channel Load-Balancing does not produce a consistent hashvalue for a frame with the same source MAC (e.g. non MAC based Hash-Schemes) M1 MAC Flip- Flop PE4 PE4 CE2 M2 6

7 Solution Requirements All-Active Redundancy and Load Balancing Flow-based Multi-pathing WAN Flow-based Load balancing Backdoor Geo- Redundancy All-Active Redundancy to maximize bisectional bandwidth Load-balance traffic among PEs and exploit core ECMP based on flow entropy (flow can be L2/L3/L4 or combinations) Support geo-redundant PE nodes with optimal forwarding Flexible Redundancy Grouping of PEs Site 1 Site 2 Site N 7

15 E-VPN / PBB-EVPN Concepts E-VPN Instance (EVI) Ethernet Segment BGP Routes BGP Route Attributes PE BD BD EVI EVI SHD ESI1 MHD ESI2 CE2 Route Types [1] Ethernet Auto-Discovery (AD) Route [2] MAC Advertisement Route [3] Inclusive Multicast Route [4] Ethernet Segment Route Extended Communities ESI Label ES-Import MAC Mobility Default Gateway EVI identifies a VPN in the network Encompass one or more bridge-domains, depending on service interface type Port-based VLAN-based (shown above) VLAN-bundling VLAN aware bundling (NEW) Represents a site connected to one or more PEs Uniquely identified by a 10- byte global Ethernet Segment Identifier (ESI) Could be a single device or an entire network Single-Homed Device (SHD) Multi-Homed Device (MHD) Single-Homed Network (SHN) Multi-Homed Network (MHN) E-VPN and PBB-EVPN define a single new BGP NLRI used to carry all E- VPN routes NLRI has a new SAFI (70) Routes serve control plane purposes, including: MAC address reachability MAC mass withdrawal Split-Horizon label adv. Aliasing Multicast endpoint discovery Redundancy group discovery Designated forwarder election New BGP extended communities defined Expand information carried in BGP routes, including: MAC address moves C-MAC flush notification Redundancy mode MAC / IP bindings of a GW Split-horizon label encoding

16 E-VPN Instance (EVI) & Service Interfaces E-VPN Instance (EVI) identifies a VPN in the /IP network EVI may encompass one or more bridge-domains, depending on PE s service interface type: Port Based Service Interface All CE-VLANs UNI CE UNI VPN A UNI CE VLAN Based Service Interface CE VLAN X VLAN Y UNI UNI VPN A VPN B UNI CE VLAN Bundling Service Interface CE-VLAN subset UNI CE UNI VPN A UNI CE VLAN Aware Bundling Service Interface CE-VLAN subset UNI New! VPN A CE UNI UNI CE PE BD EVI PE BD BD EVI EVI PE BD EVI PE BD BD EVI

17 Ethernet Segment Definition SHD ESI1 MHD ESI2 CE2 PE5 CE4 CE5 MHN ESI4 MHD ESI3 CE3 PE4 CE6 SHN ESI5 Ethernet Segment is a site connected to one or more PEs Ethernet Segment could be a single device (i.e. CE) or an entire network Single-Homed Device (SHD) Multi-Homed Device * (MHD) using Ethernet Multi-chassis Link Aggregation Group Single-Homed Network (SHN) Multi-Homed Network * (MHN) Uniquely identified by a 10-byte global Ethernet Segment Identifier (ESI) (*) Includes Dual-Homed Device

18 Ethernet Segment ESI Auto-Sensing LACPDU BPDU CE MST LACPDU CE2 BPDU MHD with Multi-chassis LAG ESI is auto-discovered via LACP ESI is encoded using the CE s LACP parameters: MHN with MST ESI is auto-discovered via MST BPDU snooping ESI is encoded using the IST s root parameters: System Priority System MAC Address Port Key Bridge Priority Root Bridge MAC 0x bytes 6 bytes 2 bytes 2 bytes 6 bytes 2 bytes 18

19 Split Horizon For Ethernet Segments E-VPN Challenge: How to prevent flooded traffic from echoing back to a multi-homed Ethernet Segment? Echo! ESI-1 ESI-2 CE3 CE5 CE4 PE4 PE advertises in BGP a split-horizon label (ESI Label) associated with each multi-homed Ethernet Segment Split-horizon label is only used for multi-destination frames (Unknown Unicast, Multicast & Broadcast) When an ingress PE floods multi-destination traffic, it encodes the Split- Horizon label identifying the source Ethernet Segment in the packet Egress PEs use this label to perform selective split-horizon filtering over the attachment circuit

20 Split Horizon For Ethernet Segments PBB-EVPN Challenge: How to prevent flooded traffic from echoing back to a multi-homed Ethernet Segment? Echo! ESI-1 B-MAC1 B-MAC1 ESI-2 CE3 CE5 CE4 PE4 PEs connected to the same MHD use the same B-MAC address for the Ethernet Segment 1:1 mapping between B-MAC and ESI (for All-Active Redundancy with flow-based LB) Disposition PEs check the B-MAC source address for Split-Horizon filtering Frame not allowed to egress on an Ethernet Segment whose B-MAC matches the B- MAC source address in the PBB header

21 Split Horizon For Core Tunnels Challenge: How to prevent flooded traffic from looping back over the core? ESI-1 Loop! ESI-2 CE3 CE4 CE5 PE4 Traffic received from an tunnel over the core is never forwarded back to the core This is similar to the VPLS split-horizon filtering rule 21

22 Designated Forwarder (DF) DF Election Challenge: How to prevent duplicate copies of flooded traffic from being delivered to a multi-homed Ethernet Segment? ESI-1 ESI-2 CE2 Duplicate! PE4 PEs connected to a multi-homed Ethernet Segment discover each other via BGP These PEs then elect among them a Designated Forwarder responsible for forwarding flooded multi-destination frames to the multi-homed Segment DF Election granularity can be: Multiple DFs for load-sharing Per Ethernet Tag on Ethernet Segment (E-VPN) Per I-SID on Ethernet Segment (PBB-EVPN)

23 Designated Forwarder (DF) DF Filtering MHD All-Active with Per-Flow Load Balancing MHD / MHN All-Active with Per-Service Load Balancing CE! DF Filtering Legend Multi-destination Traffic Unicast Traffic MHN CE2! DF Filtering CE! DF Filtering Filtering Direction: Core to Segment Filtered Traffic: Flooded multi-destination Filtering Direction: Core to Segment Segment to Core Filtered Traffic: Flooded multi-destination Unicast 23

24 Aliasing I can reach MAC1 via ESI1 E-VPN Challenge: How to load-balance traffic towards a multihomed device across multiple PEs when MAC addresses are learnt by only a single PE? MAC1 ESI-1 MAC1 I can reach ESI1 (All-Active) I can reach ESI1 (All-Active) PE4 MAC1 ESI1 CE3 CE4 PEs advertise in BGP the ESIs of local multi-homed Ethernet Segments All-Active Redundancy Mode indicated When PE learns MAC address on its AC, it advertises the MAC in BGP along with the ESI of the Ethernet Segment from which the MAC was learnt Remote PEs can load-balance traffic to a given MAC address across all PEs advertising the same ESI

25 Aliasing PBB-EVPN I can reach B-MAC1 I can reach MAC1 via B-MAC1 MAC1 B-MAC1 Challenge: How to load-balance traffic towards a multihomed device across multiple PEs when MAC addresses are learnt by only a single PE? MAC1 MAC1 B-M1 B-M1 ESI-1 I can reach B-MAC1 PE4 CE3 CE4 PEs connected to the same MHD use the same B-MAC address for the Ethernet Segment 1:1 mapping between B-MAC and ESI (for All-Active Redundancy with flow-based LB) PEs advertise their B-MAC addresses independent of the C-MAC learning state Remote PEs can load-balance traffic to a given C-MAC across all PEs advertising the same associated B-MAC

26 Backup Path I can reach MAC1 via ESI1 E-VPN I can reach ESI1 (Active/Standby) MAC1 ESI1 (Active) (Backup) Challenge: How to identify PEs that have a backup path to a multi-homed Ethernet Segment? MAC1 MAC1 CE3 ESI-1 I can reach ESI1 (Active/Standby) PE4 CE4 PEs advertise in BGP connectivity to ESIs associated with local multi-homed Ethernet Segments Active/Standby Redundancy Mode is indicated When PE learns a MAC address on its AC, it advertises the MAC in BGP along with the ESI of the Ethernet Segment from which the MAC was learnt Remote PEs will install: active path to the PE that advertised both MAC Address & ESI backup path to the PE that advertised ESI only

27 MAC Mass-Withdraw E-VPN Challenge: How to inform remote PEs of a failure affecting many MAC addresses quickly while the control-plane re-converges? MAC1 I can reach MAC1 via ESI1 I can reach ESI1 (All-Active) MAC1, MAC2, MACn ESI-1 I can reach MAC2 via ESI1 I can reach MACn via ESI1 I lost ESI1 I can reach ESI1 (All-Active) MAC1,.. MACn ESI1 PE4 CE3 CE4 X PEs advertise two sets of information: MAC addresses along with the ESI from the address was learnt Connectivity to ESI(s) If a PE detects a failure impacting an Ethernet Segment, it withdraws the route for the associated ESI Remote PEs remove failed PE from the path-list for all MAC addresses associated with an ESI This effectively is a MAC mass-withdraw function 27
