  • Inline BFD with EVPN-VXLAN for Type 2 and Type 5 tunnel repair (QFX5130-32CD, QFX5130E-32CD, QFX5130-48C, QFX5700, and QFX5700E)—We support inline BFD with EVPN-VXLAN for faster recovery of PE to PE network failures.

    [See Understanding How BFD Detects Network Failures.]

  • Override global AS number for auto-derived route targets in EVPN instances (QFX5130-32CD)—By default, EVPN provider edge devices use the global autonomous system (AS) number to auto-derive route targets and configure the related route target import and export policies in EVPN instances (EVIs). If required, you can override this default behavior to instead specify a common AS number to use for auto-derived route targets across EVPN peer devices. With this feature, you can ensure consistent route advertisements and import policies in EVPN fabrics that use external BGP (eBGP) underlay and overlay peering.

    Use the import-as and export-as options to assign an AS number on all EVPN peer devices for auto-derived route target import and export policies. Alternatively, you can use the as-num option to assign the same AS number for both import and export policies.

    • For default-switch instances:

    • For mac-vrf instances:
