EVPN-MPLS: EVPN and MC-LAG interworking

You can use Ethernet VPN (EVPN) to extend your Junos Fusion Enterprise or MC-LAG network over an MPLS network. Typically, Junos Fusion Enterprise is extended to a geographically distributed campus or enterprise network, while an MC-LAG network is extended to a data center network or geographically distributed campus or enterprise network. The EVPN-MPLS interworking feature offers the following benefits: â?¢ Ability to use separate virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instances to control inter-VLAN routing. â?¢ VLAN translation. â?¢ Default Layer 3 virtual gateway support, which eliminates the need to run such protocols as Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP). â?¢ Load balancing to better utilize both links when using EVPN multihoming. â?¢ The use of EVPN type 2 advertisement routes (MAC+IP) reduces the need for flooding domains with ARP packets.
