Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

Enable an Ethernet VPN (EVPN) on the routing instance.

Note:

Starting in Junos OS Release 24.2R1, we renamed the interconnect-multihoming-peer-gateways option to multihoming-peer-gateways to support additional multihoming peer feature use cases besides interconnect scenarios. You won't see the interconnect-multihoming-peer-gateways statement in the Junos CLI anymore; use the new option name multihoming-peer-gateways for the same function.

Options

designated-forwarder-election-hold-time seconds

Time in seconds to wait before electing a designated forwarder (DF). Peer provider edge (PE) devices elect a designated forwarder (DF) when customer edge devices (CEs) are multihomed to more than one PE device. Without a designated forwarder, multihomed hosts would receive duplicate packets. The designated forwarder choice for an Ethernet segment identifier (ESI) is based on EVPN Type 4 route advertisements.

  • Range: 1 through 1800 seconds

designated-forwarder-preference-highest

Use highest preference value for DF election for the EVPN instance (EVI). By default, the preference-based DF election is based on the highest preference value configured.

designated-forwarder-preference-least

Use least preference value for DF election for the EVPN instance (EVI). By default, the preference-based DF election is based on the highest preference value configured.

es-import-oldstyle

Enable non-compliant ES import route-target computation.

es-label-oldstyle

Enable devices to use the lower-order bits for the ESI label field. This non-compliant ESI 24-bit ESI label can be found in previous Junos OS versions.

esi

Ten octet value. Configure an ESI for the EVPN instance (EVI). Use this option when configuring df-election-granularity per-evi to support the ESI per EVI feature.

evpn-etree

Configure an Ethernet VPN E-TREE service.

hot-standby-on

Enables the standby PE device to install the forwarding routes. This improves convergence when the standby path becomes active.

leave-sync-route-oldstyle Enable device to interoperate with devices that do not support the maximum response time attributes on EVPN Type 8 routes.
mac-mobility no-sequence-numbers Disable MAC mobility. This feature is enabled by default. See Overview of MAC Mobility.
no-core-isolation

Disable the core isolation feature (enabled by default on supporting platforms), which is desirable in certain EVPN fabric use cases. See Understanding When to Disable EVPN-VXLAN Core Isolation for details.

peg-df-election-history num

Number of PIM EVPN gateway (PEG) DF election history entries the device maintains per bridge domain (VLAN) on devices configured as PEG devices with optimized intersubnet multicast (OISM) . The device stores and displays up to this many entries in the output from the show evpn oism peg-df-status extensive command.

  • Range: 0 through 255

pmsi-tunnel-endpoint pmsi-tunnel-endpoint

Configure the PMSI tunnel endpoint on the ingress router to use the loopback address (router ID) that is the MPLS network PMSI tunnel endpoint for EVPN Type 3 routes.

smet-etag-carry-vid Enable a device to interoperate with other devices in the EVPN network that use VNIs (VLAN ID) as the Ethernet Tag ID.

The remaining statements are explained separately.
