The IESG has received a request from the BGP Enabled ServiceS WG (bess) to consider the following document: - 'EVPN Virtual Ethernet Segment' <draft-ietf-bess-evpn-virtual-eth-segment-16.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the last-c...@ietf.org mailing lists by 2024-11-18. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to i...@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Ethernet VPN (EVPN) and Provider Backbone EVPN (PBB-EVPN) introduce a comprehensive suite of solutions for delivering Ethernet services over MPLS/IP networks. These solutions offer advanced features, including multi-homing capabilities. Specifically, they support Single-Active and All-Active redundancy modes for an Ethernet Segment (ES), which is defined as a collection of physical links connecting a multi-homed device or network to a set of Provider Edge (PE) devices. This document extends the concept of an Ethernet Segment by allowing an ES to be associated with a set of Ethernet Virtual Circuits (EVCs, such as VLANs) or other entities, including MPLS Label Switched Paths (LSPs) or Pseudowires (PWs). This extended concept is referred to as Virtual Ethernet Segments (vES). This draft outlines the requirements and necessary extensions to support vES in both EVPN and PBB-EVPN.
