EVPN Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS) is a Layer 2 VPN technology that uses MP-BGP for BGP EVPN route advertisement in the control plane and MPLS for forwarding in the data plane. EVPN VPWS provides point-to-point forwarding services for users by using ACs and PWs associated with cross-connects without MAC address table lookup.

EVPN VPWS network model

As shown in Figure 1, an EVPN VPWS network contains the following devices:

· Customer edge (CE)—Customer device directly connected to the service provider network.

· Provider edge (PE)—Service provider device connected to CEs. PEs provide access to the EVPN VPWS network and forward traffic between customer network sites by using public tunnels.

A PE uses ACs, PWs, tunnels, and cross-connects to provide EVPN VPWS services.

· Attachment circuit (AC)—A physical or virtual link between a CE and a PE.

· Pseudowire (PW)—A virtual bidirectional connection between two PEs. A PW comprises a pair of LSPs in opposite directions.

· Public tunnel—A connection that carries one or more PWs across the MPLS or IP backbone. A public tunnel can be an LSP, GRE tunnel, or MPLS TE tunnel.

· Cross-connect—A connection formed by two physical or virtual circuits such as ACs and PWs. It switches packets between the two physical or virtual circuits. Cross-connects include AC to AC cross-connect and AC to PW cross-connect.

Figure 1 EVPN VPWS network

Remote connection establishment

EVPN VPWS remote connection provides point-to-point Layer 2 connectivity between customer network sites by using PWs over an IP or MPLS backbone.

To set up a remote EVPN VPWS connection:

1. Set up a public tunnel to carry one or more PWs between PEs.

2. Set up a PW to connect customer networks.

3. Set up an AC between a PE and a CE.

4. Bind the AC to the PW.

After the PE receives packets from the AC, it adds the PW label into the packets and sends the packets to the peer PE through the public tunnel.

After the peer PE receives the packets from the public tunnel, it removes the PW label of the packets and forwards the packets to the AC bound to the PW.

Public tunnel establishment

The public tunnel can be an LSP, MPLS TE, or GRE tunnel.

If multiple public tunnels are set up between two PEs, you can configure a tunnel policy to control tunnel selection. For more information about tunnel policies, see MPLS Configuration Guide.

If a PW is established over an LSP or MPLS TE tunnel, packets on the PW have two labels. The outer label is the public LSP or MPLS TE tunnel label that MPLS uses to forward the packet to the peer PE. The inner label is the PW label that the peer PE uses to forward the packet to the destination CE.

PW establishment

A PW is established between two PEs based on the local and remote service IDs configured on the PEs. In an EVPN VPWS network, each PE advertises its remote service ID through Ethernet auto-discovery routes and compares received remote service IDs with its local service ID. A PE establishes a unidirectional LSP to a peer If the remote service ID advertised by the peer matches the local service ID. PW establishment is finished when two LSPs in opposite directions are established between two PEs.

AC establishment

For EVPN VPWS, an AC is associated with a cross-connect and can be a Layer 3 Ethernet interface or Layer 3 Ethernet subinterface on a PE.

AC-to-PW bindings

For PEs to forward packets between an AC and a PW, bind the AC to the PW.

EVPN VPWS multihoming

About this task

As shown in Figure 2, EVPN VPWS supports deploying multiple PEs at a site for redundancy and high availability. On the redundant PEs, Ethernet links connected to the site form an ES that is uniquely identified by an ESI. EVPN VPWS supports only dualhoming.

Figure 2 EVPN VPWS multihoming

Redundancy mode

The device supports single-active redundancy mode and all-active redundancy mode of EVPN VPWS multihoming.

· Single-active mode—This mode allows one of the redundant PWs to forward traffic, as shown in Figure 3. When the main PW becomes unavailable because of device failure or link failure, traffic is switched to the backup PW for forwarding.

Figure 3 Single-active mode

· All-active mode—This mode allows all redundant PWs to a multihomed site to load share traffic.

About DF election

In single-active mode, a DF is elected from the redundant PEs to determine the main PW. PEs that fail the election are assigned the BDF role. The PWs on BDFs do not forward traffic.

Redundant PEs at a site send Ethernet segment routes to one another to advertise ES and PE IP mappings. A PE accepts the Ethernet segment routes only when it is configured with an ESI. Then, the PEs select a DF based on the ES and PE IP mappings. DF election can be performed by using a VLAN tag-based algorithm or preference-based algorithm.

Figure 4 DF election

VLAN tag-based DF election

PEs select a DF for each AC based on the VLAN tag and PE IP address as follows:

1. Arrange source IP addresses in Ethernet segment routes with the same ESI in ascending order and assign a sequence number to each IP address, starting from 0.

2. Divide the lowest VLAN ID permitted on an AC by the number of the redundant PEs, and match the reminder to the sequence numbers of IP addresses.

3. Assign the DF role to the PE that uses the IP address with the matching sequence number.

The following uses PE 1 and PE 2 in Figure 5 as an example to explain the DF election procedure:

4. PE 1 and PE 2 send Ethernet segment routes to each other.

5. The PEs assign sequence numbers 0 and 1 to IP addresses 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2 in the Ethernet segment routes, respectively.

6. The PEs divide 4 (the lowest VLAN ID permitted by the ACs) by 2 (the number of redundant PEs), and match the reminder 0 to the sequence numbers of the IP addresses.

7. The DF role is assigned to PE 1 at 1.1.1.1.

Figure 5 VLAN tag-based DF election

Preference-based DF election

PEs select a DF for each ES based on the DF election preference, the Don't Preempt Me (DP) bit in Ethernet segment routes, and PE IP address. The DP bit can be set to one of the following values:

· 1—DF preemption is disabled. A DF retains its role when a new DF is elected.

· 0—DF preemption is enabled.

Preference-based DF election uses the following rules to select a DF for an ES:

· The PE with higher preference becomes the DF.

· If two PEs have the same preference, the PE with the DP bit set to 1 becomes the DF. If both of the PEs have the DP bit set to 1, the PE with a lower IP address becomes the DF.

As shown in Figure 6, PE 2 is the DF for ES 1, and PE 1 is the DF for ES 2.

Figure 6 Preference-based DF election

FRR for EVPN VPWS

About FRR

Fast reroute (FRR) helps reduce the traffic loss caused by AC or PW failure on an EVPN VPWS network. FRR includes local FRR and remote FRR.

Local FRR

Local FRR enables two PEs at a multihomed EVPN VPWS network site to set up a bypass PW between them.

As shown in Figure 7, CE 2 is dualhomed to PE 2 and PE 3. When the AC on PE 2 fails, PE 2 advertises the local unreachable event to PE 1 and PE 3 for PE 1 to switch traffic to the PW to PE 3. In this situation, PE 3 drops the packets that PE 1 sends before it is notified of the local unreachable event. To resolve this issue, enable local FRR on PE 2 and PE 3. When receiving packets from PE 1 after PE 2's AC fails, PE 2 forwards the packets to PE 3 over the bypass PW to prevent traffic loss.

Figure 7 Local FRR

Remote FRR

Remote FRR enables two PEs on an EVPN VPWS network to set up a primary PW and a backup PW between them to ensure high availability. This feature is applicable to both multihoming and singlehoming scenarios.

As shown in Figure 8, PE 1 and PE 2 are connected by RR 1 and RR 2. The RRs change the next hop attribute of routes and reassign MPLS labels to them based on routing policies when reflecting the routes. PE 1 and PE 2 select only RR 1 or RR 2 when establishing a PW. For high availability, you can enable remote FRR on PE 1 for it to set up PWs to both RRs. PE 1 uses the primary PW to forward traffic as long as it is available. When the primary PW fails, PE 1 switches traffic to the backup PW. For more information about optimal route selection on PE 1, see BGP configuration in Layer 3—IP Routing Configuration Guide.

Figure 8 Remote FRR

Control word

The control word field is between the MPLS label stack and the Layer 2 data. It carries control information for the Layer 2 frame, for example, the sequence number.

The control word feature has the following functions:

· Avoids fragment disorder. In multipath forwarding, fragments received might be disordered. The control word feature reorders the fragments according to the sequence number carried in the control word field.

· Identifies the original payload length for packets that include padding.

The control word field is optional for EVPN PWs. You can configure whether to carry the control word field in packets sent on the PW. If you enable the control word feature on both PEs, packets transmitted on the PW carry the control word field. Otherwise, the packets do not carry the control word field.

L2VPN flow label

Packets carrying different types of traffic might be transmitted through the same PW and encapsulated with the same PW label. The P devices forward the traffic flows of a PW over the same path even if Equal Cost Multiple Paths (ECMPs) exist.

The L2VPN flow label feature can enable a P device to perform load sharing on packets based on the flow types.

After you configure this feature, the P and PE devices process packets as follows:

· When the ingress PE encapsulates a packet, it adds a flow label before it adds a PW label, as shown in Figure 9.

The ingress PE adds different flow labels for packets of different traffic types.

· The P devices perform load sharing on packets based on the flow labels.

· The egress PE removes both the PW and flow labels from a packet before forwarding the packet.

Figure 9 L2VPN flow label feature

You can enable the flow label sending, receiving, or both sending and receiving capabilities on a PE.

· The sending capability enables a PE to send packets with flow labels. The PE adds a flow label before it adds a PW label to a packet during PW encapsulation.

· The receiving capability enables a PE to identify the flow label in a received packet and removes the flow label before forwarding the packet.

For two PEs to successfully negotiate the flow label capabilities, make sure one end has the sending capability and the other end has the receiving capability.

For EVPN VPWS PWs, you must manually configure flow label capabilities for the local and remote PEs.

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 14:

· Establish an EVPN PW between the PE and the ASBR in each AS, and use LDP to establish the public tunnels that convey the EVPN PWs.

· Establish an EVPN PW between the ASBRs, and configure BGP to advertise labeled IPv4 unicast routes to establish the public tunnel that conveys the EVPN PW.

· Concatenate the EVPN PWs on the ASBRs.

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 15:

· Configure the PE and the ASBR in each AS to use IBGP to exchange labeled IPv4 routes.

· Configure the PEs to exchange BGP EVPN routes to establish an EVPN PW.

· Establish an EVPN PW between the ASBRs, and configure BGP to advertise labeled IPv4 unicast routes to establish the public tunnel that conveys the EVPN PW.

· Configure a PBR policy on each ASBR for it to insert labels into received routes.

· Configure the ASBRs to exchange labeled IPv4 routes through EBGP.
