Example: Configuring EVPN-ETREE SERVICE
This example shows how to configure EVPN-ETREE service.
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware and software components:
Three MX Series 5G Universal Routing Platforms configured as provider edge (PE) routers.
Three customer edge (CE) routers, each connected to the PE routers.
Junos OS Release 17.2 or later running on all the PE routers.
Before you begin:
Configure the device interfaces.
Configure an IGP, such as OSPF, on all the devices.
Establish a BGP session between the PE devices.
Configure MPLS and LDP on the PE devices.
Overview
The EVPN-ETree service is a VPN service where each attachment circuit is designated as either root or leaf. The E-Tree service is a rooted-multipoint service that is supported only with EVPN over MPLS in the core. In an EVPN E-Tree service, each Customer Edge devices attached the service is either a root or a leaf. The EVPN E-Tree service adheres to the following forwarding rules:
A leaf can send or receive traffic only from a root.
A root can send traffic to another root or any of the leaves.
A leaf or root can be connected to provider edge (PE) devices in singlehoming mode or multihoming mode.
Configuration
CLI Quick Configuration
To quickly configure this example, copy the following commands, paste them into a text file, remove any line breaks, change any details necessary to match your network configuration, copy and paste the commands into the CLI at the [edit] hierarchy level, and then enter commit from configuration mode.
