How EVPN works : Route Type 5 | IRB | IP Prefix Route | Symmetric & Asymmetric Routing

[@kofo757]

Awesome explanation. Thanks!

[@Ten-Dot-One]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Muralikrishna-yz7jl]

Why is learning the remote IRB MAC, a limitation of Asymmetric IRB? The DMAC of the inner ethernet header is set to the MAC address of the destination host i.e. the inner ethernet header is fully populated on the ingress VTEP itself, before handing over the packet to the respective IRB on the ingress VTEP. Where exactly does the remote IRB MAC address come into picture?

Hi, in Symmetric routing, in step 3 when traffic from VTEP1 to VTEP2, i believe the VNI must be L3VNI instead of L2VNI-20 right?

[@Ten-Dot-One]

Depends on symmetric or asymmetric

[@TrungHiếuLê-p9r]

@@Ten-Dot-One I want to ask about symmetric routing at around 15m in video. Moreover, at that time, inner SMAC and DMAC are system MAC of VTEPs, so how does a VTEP known system MAC of remote VTEPs?

@@TrungHiếuLê-p9r Remote VTEP will advertise that info via Type -2 route (Router MAC extended community)

5:50 ther's a typo. The second sentence should be "Ingress VTEP routes..."

RT5 flew right above, a packet flow would have been really helpful.

Let me know what you want

You dont need the music in the background. it is distracting

Yes your content and animation is excellent but unable to listen properly due to background music
