Multi-Instance VPRN with EVPN-IFL Using SRv6 Transport
This chapter provides information about multi-instance VPRN services with EVPN-IFL using SRv6 transport.
Topics in this chapter include:
Applicability
The information and configuration in this chapter are based on SR OS Release 23.10.R2.
Overview
SRv6 transport in VPRN services with EVPN-IFL is supported in SR OS Release 22.5.R1 and later. Maximum two BGP instances per VPRN are supported and these BGP instances can be associated with the same BGP address family or different BGP address families. When configuring a VPRN with EVPN in interface-less mode (EVPN-IFL) over SRv6 transport, the associated SRv6 locator must have the End.DT4, End.DT6, or End.DT46 functions which can be statically configured or dynamically allocated by the router.
- between VPN-IPv4/v6 and EVPN-IFL
- between VPN-IPv4/v6 and VPN-IPv4/v6 – when allow-export-bgp-vpn is enabled
- between EVPN-IFL and EVPN-IFL – when allow-export-bgp-vpn is enabled
- between VPN-IPv4/v6 and IPv4/v6
- between EVPN-IFL and IPv4/v6
- between VPN-IPv4/v6 and EVPN-IFF – when iff-attribute-uniform-propagation is enabled
- between EVPN-IFL and EVPN-IFF – when iff-attribute-uniform-propagation is enabled
EVPN IP prefix routes readvertised between domains shows how an EVPN IP prefix route originating from PE-4 is advertised for a VPRN with EVPN-IFL configured on all nodes. The VPRN with EVPN-IFL uses SRv6 transport in domain 2 and SR-ISIS tunnels in domain 1.
PE-2 and PE-3 act as service gateways (GWs) that import routes and readvertise them between domains. On the service GWs, the VPRN has two BGP instances that are associated with the EVPN address family. The domain path attribute is used as automated loop prevention, as described in the Domain Path Attribute for VPRN BGP Routes chapter. Each service GW imports the IP prefix route and prepends the domain ID of origin when readvertising these IP prefix routes. When GW PE-2 receives the IP prefix route from PE-4, it prepends domain ID 64500:2 and advertises the IP prefix to PE-1 and PE-3. PE-1 accepts and uses this IP prefix route, but PE-3 does not install this IP prefix route in the VRF because the domain ID 64500:2 is local to PE-3.
Interworking between EVPN-IFL and IP-VPN is supported, as shown in Interworking between EVPN-IFL and IP-VPN.
On the service GWs PE-2 and PE-3, one BGP instance is associated with the EVPN address family while the other BGP instance is associated with the VPN-IPv4 address family.
When GW PE-2 receives the IP prefix route from PE-4, it prepends domain ID 64500:2 and advertises the IP prefix 10.0.2.24/32 in a VPN-IPv4 route to PE-1 and PE-3. PE-1 accepts and uses this VPN-IPv4 route, but PE-3 does not install this VPN-IPv4 route in the VRF because the domain ID 64500:2 is local to PE-3.
Configuration
- cards, MDAs, ports
- router interfaces
- IS-IS on all router interfaces: IS-IS level 1 between PE-1, PE-2, and PE-3; IS-IS level 2 between PE-2, PE-3, and PE-4
- SR-ISIS between PE-1, PE-2, and PE-3
- SRv6 between PE-2, PE-3, and PE-4
As an example, the initial configuration on PE-2 is as follows:
# on PE-2:
configure {
card 1 {
mda 1 {
xconnect {
mac 1 {
loopback 1 {
}
loopback 2 {

Multi-instance VPRN with one EVPN-IFL domain using SRv6 transport
- Multi-instance VPRN with EVPN-IFL over SRv6 and EVPN-IFL over SR-ISIS where EVPN-IFL is used in both domains and only the transport is different
- Multi-instance VPRN with EVPN-IFL over SRv6 and VPN-IPv4/v6 over SR-ISIS with interworking between EVPN-IFL and VPN-IPv4/v6 and different transport tunnels in both domains
Multi-instance VPRN with EVPN-IFL over SRv6 and EVPN-IFL over SR-ISIS
BGP configuration
BGP is configured on all nodes for the EVPN address family. The configuration on PE-1 is as follows:
# on PE-1:
configure {
router "Base" {
autonomous-system 64500
bgp {
rapid-withdrawal true
peer-ip-tracking true
split-horizon true
rapid-update {
evpn true
}
group "access-mpls" {
peer-as 64500
family {
evpn true
}
}
neighbor "192.0.2.2" {
group "access-mpls"
}
neighbor "192.0.2.3" {
group "access-mpls"
}
The BGP configuration on the service GW PE-2 has two different groups. The BGP configuration for the "access-mpls" group is similar to the BGP configuration on PE-1, whereas the BGP configuration for the "core-srv6" has IPv6 peers and advertises IPv6 next hops for EVPN routes:
# on PE-2:
configure {
router "Base" {
autonomous-system 64500
bgp {
rapid-withdrawal true
peer-ip-tracking true
split-horizon true
rapid-update {
evpn true
}
group "access-mpls" {
peer-as 64500
family {
evpn true
}
}
group "core-srv6" {
peer-as 64500
family {
evpn true
}
advertise-ipv6-next-hops {
evpn true
}
}
neighbor "192.0.2.1" {
group "access-mpls"
}
neighbor "192.0.2.3" {
group "access-mpls"
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:3" {
group "core-srv6"
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:4" {
group "core-srv6"
}
The BGP configuration on PE-3 is identical, but with different peer addresses.
On PE-4, the BGP configuration is as follows:
# on PE-4:
configure {
router "Base" {
autonomous-system 64500
bgp {
rapid-withdrawal true
peer-ip-tracking true
split-horizon true
rapid-update {
evpn true
}
group "core-srv6" {
peer-as 64500
family {
evpn true
}
advertise-ipv6-next-hops {
evpn true
}
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:2" {
group "core-srv6"
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:3" {
group "core-srv6"
}
Service configuration
VPRN-1 is configured with EVPN-IFL. On PE-1, VPRN-1 has only one BGP instance and MPLS (SR-ISIS) tunnels are used:
# on PE-1:
configure {
service {
vprn "VPRN-1" {
admin-state enable
service-id 1
customer "1"
bgp-evpn {
mpls 1 {
admin-state enable
route-distinguisher "192.0.2.1:11"
vrf-target {
community "target:64500:11"
}
auto-bind-tunnel {
resolution any
}
}
}
interface "loopback" {
loopback true
mac 00:00:5e:00:53:11
ipv4 {
primary {
address 10.0.1.11
prefix-length 32
}
}
ipv6 {
address 2001:db8::1:11 {
prefix-length 128
}
}
}
}
On GW PE-2, the VPRN-1 service is configured as follows. The SRv6 locator from the router "Base" segment-routing segment-routing-v6 context is used and the End.DT4, End.DT6, and End.DT46 functions are configured for it. EVPN-IFL is used in domain 1 and in domain 2. The allow-export-bgp-vpn command is required between two EVPN-IFL instances. The route distinguishers and the route targets have different values in the different domains. The domain IDs are configured on the service GWs to avoid loops. For SRv6, the IPv6 system address is used as source address.
# on PE-2:
configure {
service {
vprn "VPRN-1" {
admin-state enable
service-id 1
customer "1"
allow-export-bgp-vpn true # required between two EVPN-IFL instances
segment-routing-v6 1 {
locator "PE2-loc" {
function {
end-dt4 {
}
end-dt6 {
}
end-dt46 {
}
}
}
}
bgp-evpn {
mpls 1 {
admin-state enable
route-distinguisher "192.0.2.2:11"
domain-id "64500:1"
vrf-target {
community "target:64500:11"
}
auto-bind-tunnel {
resolution any
}
}
segment-routing-v6 1 {
admin-state enable
route-distinguisher "192.0.2.2:12"
source-address 2001:db8::2:2
domain-id "64500:2"
vrf-target {
community "target:64500:12"
}
srv6 {
instance 1
default-locator "PE2-loc"
}
}
}
The service configuration on PE-3 is similar.
On PE-4, the VPRN-1 service is configured as follows:
# on PE-4:
configure {
service {
vprn "VPRN-1" {
admin-state enable
service-id 1
customer "1"
segment-routing-v6 1 {
locator "PE4-loc" {
function {
end-dt4 {
}
end-dt6 {
}
end-dt46 {
}
}
}
}
bgp-evpn {
segment-routing-v6 1 {
admin-state enable
route-distinguisher "192.0.2.4:12"
source-address 2001:db8::2:4
vrf-target {
community "target:64500:12"
}
srv6 {
instance 1
default-locator "PE4-loc"
}
}
}
interface "loopback" {
loopback true
mac 00:00:5e:00:53:14
ipv4 {
primary {
address 10.0.1.14
prefix-length 32
}
}
ipv6 {
address 2001:db8::1:14 {
prefix-length 128
}
}
}

PE-2 readvertises this IP prefix route to PE-1 and PE-3 after prepending the domain ID 64500:2. PE-1 accepts the route, but PE-3 has domain ID 64500:2 locally, so it does not install the IP prefix in its VRF. The following shows that PE-3 does not use the IP prefix route for prefix 10.0.1.14/32 with RD 192.0.2.2:11 and D-path [64500:2:(evpn)] . PE-3 detects a domain path loop in VRF 1.

Likewise, when PE-3 receives an IP prefix route for prefix 10.0.1.14/32 from PE-4, it imports the route and it readvertises this IP prefix route to PE-1 and PE-2 after prepending the domain ID 64500:2. PE-1 accepts and uses the route, but PE-2 has domain ID 64500:2 locally, so it does not install the IP prefix route in its VRF. The following shows that PE-2 does not use the IP prefix route for prefix 10.0.1.14/32 with RD 192.0.2.3:11 and D-path [64500:2:(evpn)] . PE-2 detects a domain path loop in VRF 1.

Multi-instance VPRN with EVPN-IFL over SRv6 and VPN-IPv4/v6 over SR-ISIS
This section describes a use case with interworking between EVPN-IFL and VPN-IPv4.
BGP configuration
Between PE-1, PE-2, and PE-3, BGP is supported for the VPN-IPv4 and VPN-IPv6 address families. The BGP configuration on PE-1 is as follows:
# on PE-1:
configure {
router "Base" {
autonomous-system 64500
bgp {
rapid-withdrawal true
peer-ip-tracking true
split-horizon true
rapid-update {
evpn true
}
group "access-mpls" {

vpn-ipv6 true
}
}
neighbor "192.0.2.2" {
group "access-mpls"
}
neighbor "192.0.2.3" {
group "access-mpls"
}
The BGP configuration on PE-2 is as follows:
# on PE-2:
configure {
router "Base" {
autonomous-system 64500
bgp {
rapid-withdrawal true
peer-ip-tracking true
split-horizon true

PE-2 readvertises this prefix in a VPN-IPv4 route to PE-1 and PE-3 after prepending the domain ID 64500:2. PE-1 accepts this route, but PE-3 has domain ID 64500:2 locally, so it does not add this route to its VRF. The following shows that PE-3 does not use the VPN-IPv4 route received from PE-2 and that PE-3 detects a domain path loop in VRF 2:

Multi-instance VPRN with two EVPN-IFL domains using SRv6 transport
EVPN IP prefix routes readvertised between SRv6 domains shows how IP prefix 10.0.3.34/32 is advertised in VPRN-3 with two BGP-EVPN instances pointing at the same SRv6 locator.
For a VPRN with two BGP-EVPN instances pointing at different SRv6 locators, the behavior is identical but the SRv6 SID on PE-4 is different for a different SRv6 locator.
VPRN with two BGP-EVPN instances pointing at the same SRv6 locator
This section describes VPRN-3 which has two BGP-EVPN instances that both use the same locator.
SRv6 configuration
SRv6 was already configured among PE-2, PE-3, and PE-4. In this scenario and the following, SRv6 is also configured among PE-1, PE-2, and PE-3. The IS-IS configuration on PE-1 is as follows:
# on PE-1:
configure {
router "Base" {
isis 0 {
admin-state enable
advertise-passive-only true
advertise-router-capability as
ipv6-routing native
traffic-engineering true
area-address [49.0001]
traffic-engineering-options {
ipv6 true
application-link-attributes {
}
}
segment-routing-v6 {
admin-state enable
locator "PE1-loc" {
level-capability 1 # on PE-2, PE-3: level 1/2 (default)
}
}
interface "int-PE-1-PE-2" {
interface-type point-to-point
level-capability 1
}
interface "int-PE-1-PE-3" {
interface-type point-to-point
level-capability 1
}
interface "system" {
passive true
}
level 1 {
wide-metrics-only true
}
level 2 {
wide-metrics-only true
}
}
On the GWs PE-2 and PE-3, the existing locators "PE2-loc" and "PE3-loc" are used on both SRv6 domains and these SRv6 locators are configured with level-capability 1/2, which is the default value.
BGP configuration
In this example, BGP uses IPv6 peer addresses. The BGP configuration on PE-1 is as follows:
# on PE-1:
configure {
router "Base" {
autonomous-system 64500
bgp {
rapid-withdrawal true
peer-ip-tracking true
split-horizon true
rapid-update {
evpn true
}
group "access-srv6" {
peer-as 64500
family {
evpn true
}
advertise-ipv6-next-hops {
evpn true
}
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:2" {
group "access-srv6"
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:3" {
group "access-srv6"
}
The BGP configuration on the service GWs PE-2 and PE-3 is as follows:
# on PE-2:
configure {
router "Base" {
autonomous-system 64500
bgp {
rapid-withdrawal true
peer-ip-tracking true
split-horizon true
rapid-update {
evpn true
}
group "access-srv6" {
peer-as 64500
family {
evpn true
}
advertise-ipv6-next-hops {
evpn true
}
}
group "core-srv6" {
peer-as 64500
family {
evpn true
}
advertise-ipv6-next-hops {
evpn true
}
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:1" {
group "access-srv6"
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:3" { # on PE-3: 2001:db8::2:2
group "core-srv6"
}
neighbor "2001:db8::2:4" {
group "core-srv6"
}
The BGP configuration on PE-4 remains the same as in the preceding use cases.
Service configuration
On PE-1 and PE-4, the configuration of VPRN-3 is similar. VPRN-3 is configured on PE-1 as follows:
# on PE-1:
configure {
service {
vprn "VPRN-3" {
admin-state enable
service-id 3
customer "1"
segment-routing-v6 1 {
locator "PE1-loc" { # on PE-4: "PE4-loc"; same functions
function {
end-dt4 {
}
end-dt6 {
}
end-dt46 {
}
}
}
}
bgp-evpn {
segment-routing-v6 1 {
admin-state enable
route-distinguisher "192.0.2.1:31" # on PE-4: 192.0.2.4:32
source-address 2001:db8::2:1 # on PE-4: 2001:db8::2:4
vrf-target {
community "target:64500:31" # on PE-4: target:64500:32
}
srv6 {
instance 1
default-locator "PE1-loc" # on PE-4: "PE4-loc"
}
}
}
interface "loopback" {
loopback true
ipv4 {
primary {
address 10.0.3.31 # on PE-4: 10.0.3.34
prefix-length 32
}
}
ipv6 {
address 2001:db8::3:31 { # on PE-4: 2001:db8::3:34
prefix-length 128
}
}
}
On GWs PE-2 and PE-3, VPRN-3 has two BGP-EVPN instances that both point to the same locator, as follows:
# on PE-2:
configure {
service {
vprn "VPRN-3" {
admin-state enable
service-id 3
customer "1"
allow-export-bgp-vpn true
segment-routing-v6 1 {
locator "PE2-loc" { # on PE-3: "PE3-loc"; same functions
function {
end-dt4 {
}
end-dt6 {
}
end-dt46 {
}
}
}
}
bgp-evpn {
segment-routing-v6 1 {
admin-state enable
route-distinguisher "192.0.2.2:31" # on PE-3: 192.0.2.3:31
source-address 2001:db8::2:2 # on PE-3: 2001:db8::2:3
domain-id "64500:1"
vrf-target {
community "target:64500:31"
}
srv6 {
instance 1
default-locator "PE2-loc" # on PE-3: "PE3-loc"
}
}
segment-routing-v6 2 {
admin-state enable
route-distinguisher "192.0.2.2:32" # on PE-3: 192.0.2.3:32
source-address 2001:db8::2:2 # on PE-3: 2001:db8::2:3
domain-id "64500:2"
vrf-target {
community "target:64500:32"
}
srv6 {
instance 1
default-locator "PE2-loc" # on PE-3: "PE3-loc"
}
}
}
Verification
The domain path attribute is used for loop prevention. GW PE-2 does not use the IP prefix routes readvertised by GW PE-3:

VPRN with two BGP-EVPN instances pointing at different SRv6 locators
This section describes VPRN-4, which has two BGP-EVPN instances pointing at different locators.
SRv6 locator configuration
On PE-2, PE-3, and PE-4, an additional SRv6 locator is configured. In this example, the only difference is the IP prefix. On PE-2, the "PE2-loc" locator was already configured and the "PE2-loc-2" locator is added:
# on PE-2:
configure {
router "Base" {
isis 0 {
segment-routing-v6 {
admin-state enable
locator "PE2-loc" {
}
locator "PE2-loc-2" {
}
}
---snip---
segment-routing {
segment-routing-v6 {
origination-fpe [1]
source-address 2001:db8::2:2
locator "PE2-loc" {
admin-state enable
block-length 48
termination-fpe [2]
prefix {
ip-prefix 2001:db8:aaaa:102::/64
}
}
locator "PE2-loc-2" {
admin-state enable
block-length 48
termination-fpe [2]
prefix {
ip-prefix 2001:db8:aaaa:122::/64
}
}
base-routing-instance {
locator "PE2-loc" {
function {
end 1 {
srh-mode usp
}
end-x-auto-allocate psp protection unprotected { }
}
}
locator "PE2-loc-2" {
function {
end 1 {
srh-mode usp
}
end-x-auto-allocate psp protection unprotected { }
}
}
}
}
}
Likewise, PE-3 gets additional locator "PE3-loc-2" and PE-4 gets additional locator "PE4-loc-2".
BGP configuration
The BGP configuration is the same as for VPRN-3: BGP is enabled for the EVPN address family and the peer addresses are the IPv6 system addresses.
Service configuration
On PE-1, VPRN-4 is configured as follows:
# on PE-1:
configure {
service {
vprn "VPRN-4" {
admin-state enable
service-id 4
customer "1"
segment-routing-v6 1 {
locator "PE1-loc" {
function {
end-dt4 {
}
end-dt6 {
}
end-dt46 {
}
}
}
}
bgp-evpn {
segment-routing-v6 1 {

}
}
}
interface "loopback" {
loopback true
ipv4 {

prefix-length 32
}
}
ipv6 {
address 2001:db8::4:41 {
prefix-length 128
}
}
}
On PE-2, VPRN-4 is configured with two SRv6 instances that use different locators, as follows. The configuration on PE-3 is similar.
# on PE-2:
configure {
service {
vprn "VPRN-4" {
admin-state enable
service-id 4

}
}
}

}
srv6 {

default-locator "PE2-loc-2" # on PE-3: "PE3-loc-2"
}
}
}
On PE-4, VPRN-4 is configured as follows:
# on PE-4:
configure {
service {
vprn "VPRN-4" {
admin-state enable
service-id 4
customer "1"
segment-routing-v6 1 {
locator "PE4-loc-2" {
function {
end-dt46 {
}
}
}
}
bgp-evpn {

}
}
}
interface "loopback" {
loopback true
ipv4 {

prefix-length 32
}
}
ipv6 {
address 2001:db8::4:44 {
prefix-length 128
}
}
}
Verification
The behavior is similar as in the preceding use cases. Loops are prevented using the domain path attribute. The following shows that PE-3 detects a domain path loop in VRF 4 for a route originating from PE-2:

Conclusion
Multi-instance VPRN services with EVPN-IFL can use SRv6 transport as well as MPLS transport. Interworking between EVPN-IFL and IP-VPN is supported. Multi-instance VPRN services can be used as Service Gateways to connect two SRv6 domains together.
