Title:
The support of 802.1AQ on IETFEVPN
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6234440
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A method is implemented in a provider edge switch (PE) for interworking an 802.1aq control plane with an Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) control plane. The method includes receiving an Intermediate System-Intermediate System (IS-IS) protocol data unit (PDU) including an IS-IS Type Length Value (TLV) by the PE and determining whether the received IS-IS PDU requires a change in a configuration of designated forwarder (DF). The method further includes determining whether the PE is still the DF for one or more Backbone-Virtual Local Area Network Identifiers (B-VIDs), and removing local DF associated network layer reachability information (NLRI) from a BGP database.
