Integrated Routing and Bridging in Ethernet VPN
RFC 9135, “Integrated Routing and Bridging in Ethernet VPN”, is a Proposed Standard document published in October 2021 by A. Sajassi, S. Salam, S. Thoria, J. Drake, J. Rabadan. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Ethernet VPN (EVPN) provides an extensible and flexible multihoming VPN solution over an MPLS/IP network for intra-subnet connectivity among Tenant Systems and end devices that can be physical or virtual. However, there are scenarios for which there is a need for a dynamic and efficient inter-subnet connectivity among these Tenant Systems and end devices while maintaining the multihoming capabilities of EVPN. This document describes an Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) solution based on EVPN to address such requirements.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
