Additional Features

We've extended support for the following features to these platforms:

• Access Gateway Function (AGF) support(MX304, MX10004, and MX10008)

  [See AGF User Guide.]

• Filter-based forwarding for GBP-tagged traffic (EX9204, EX9208, EX9214, MX240, MX304, MX480, MX960, MX10004, and MX10008)

  [See Example: Micro and Macro Segmentation using Group Based Policy in a VXLAN.]

• Multiple next hop support for inline active flow monitoring (MX240, MX304, MX480, MX960, MX10004, MX10008, MX10016, MX2010, and MX2020, with line cards LC480, LC2101, LMIC16-BASE, LC4800, or LC9600)

  [See Understand Inline Active Flow Monitoring, ipv6-extended-attrib, and multi-bgp-path.]

• Seamless stitching of Type 5 to Type 5 routes in EVPN-VXLAN (MX240, MX304, MX480, MX960, MX10004, MX10008, MX10016, MX2010, and MX2020)

  [See Configuring Seamless Type-5 to Type-5 Stitching for EVPN-VXLAN.]

• Support for consistent-hash (MX304 and MX10003). For routes resolving over a flex route profile that has more than one gateway, you can define a krt export policy to enable consistent-hash to achieve flow affinity. The krt export policy is applicable to the direct flow to flex route as destination IP address.

• Support for stitching EVPN-VXLAN Type 5 with SRv6(MX240, MX304, MX480, MX960, MX2010, MX2020, MX10004, and MX10008). We support stitching EVPN-VXLAN Type 5 route on IPv4 with an SRv6 micro-SID tunnel within the same data center using a Layer 3 VRF. The EVPN network in the data center is configured on IPv4 underlay networks. You can use both IPv4 and IPv6 data traffic from the CE device in the SRv6 tunnel that is stitched to EVPN-VXLAN tunnel.

  Note:

  You must include the vrf-table-label statement in the routing instance.

  Note:

  We support only one-to-one mapping of VRF Type 5 instances.

  • Type 5 in EVPN-VXLAN

    [See EVPN Type 2 and Type 5 Route Coexistence Implementation.]

  • Data Center Intercoonect (DCI) in EVPN-VXLAN

    [See Data Center Interconnect Design and Implementation Using IPVPN and Example: Configuring VXLAN Data Center Interconnect Using EVPN]

  • Segment Routing for IPv6 (SRv6)

    [See SRv6 and Example: Configuring Layer 3 Services over SRv6 in BGP Networks.]

• Support for file-system encryption with Trusted Platform Module (TPM 2.0) (MX304)

  [See Encryption with Trusted Platform Module.]
