Yes, there is a typo in the 4th line and “PE2” needs to be replaced with “PE1” 
as reflected in “Corrected text”.  However the note that says: “PE1 will use 
ARP table for forwarding traffic to PE2 - seems like typo”, is incorrect. PE1 
does use the ARP table for forwarding traffic to PE2 since the IRB is 
asymmetric.

Cheers,
Ali

Subject: [Errata Verified] RFC9135 (7683)
The following errata report has been verified for RFC9135,
"Integrated Routing and Bridging in Ethernet VPN (EVPN)".

Status: Verified

Section: 4.2.

Original Text
-------------
  2.  However, if PE2 is configured for asymmetric IRB mode, PE2 will
       advertise TS4 MAC/IP information in a MAC/IP Advertisement route
       with a zero Label2 field and no Route Target identifying IP-VRF1.
       In this case, PE2 will install TS4 information in its ARP table
       and BT1.  When a packet from TS2 to TS4 arrives at PE1, a longest
       prefix match on IP-VRF1's route table will yield the local IRB
       interface to BT1, where a subsequent ARP and bridge table lookup
       will provide the information for an asymmetric forwarding mode to
       PE2.
