Users Guide
● The individual switch configuration shows how to configure VRFs in the VTEPs and configure route leaking between VRFs.
For other VXLAN and BGP EVPN configuration, see other examples and the VXLAN section.
● Route leaking is performed on the Border Leaf VTEP.
● There are three nondefault VRFs present in the network – Yellow, Green, and Red.
● Route leaking is done between:
○ VRF-Yellow and VRF-Green.
○ VRF-Yellow and VRF-Red.
○ VRF-Yellow and VRF-default (underlay with external router)
NOTE: Route leaking is not performed between VRF-Green and VRF-Red.
● On VTEPs 1 and 2, two VRFs are present – VRF-Yellow and VRF-Green. VN10001 is part of VRF-Yellow and VN20001 is part
of VRF-Green.
● On VTEPs 3 and 4, three VRFs are present – VRF-Yellow, VRF-Green and VRF-Red. VN10001 is part of VRF-Yellow and
VN30001 is part of VRF-Red. VRF-Green does not have local VNs.
● On all VTEPs, symmetric IRB is configured in EVPN mode using a unique, dedicated VXLAN VNI, and Auto RD/RT values for
each tenant VRF.
● On all VTEPs, the disable-rt-asn command is used to autoderive the RT that does not include the ASN in the RT value.
This allows auto RT to be used even if there are separate ASNs for each leaf node.
● A VLAN to an external network is configured on VTEPs 3 and 4 in the VLT domain that serves as the border-leaf gateway.
Leaf 1 configuration
1. Configure VRFs Yellow and Green.
