Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for enabling interoperability between asymmetric and symmetric Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) modes. An interfacing component may be configured to receive a first route advertisement from a first edge node in a Layer-2 (L2) fabric. The first route advertisement may correspond to an asymmetric format route, for instance. The interfacing component may be further configured to receive a second route advertisement from a second edge node in a L2/Layer-3 (L3) fabric. The second edge node may be configured for symmetric integrated routing and bridging (IRB). The interfacing component may be configured to re-originate the first route and the second route such that the interfacing component is included as a hop in the resultant routes between the L2 fabric and the L2/L3 fabric.

Abstract: Presented herein are techniques that enable Ethernet Virtual Private Networks (EVPNs) to support use cases where either the Layer 2 or Layer 3 route associated with a virtual endpoint is different after the virtual endpoint migrates/moves to a different location. In particular, a networking device running an overlay network detects that a virtual endpoint has migrated on the overlay network from a first computing device to a second computing device. The networking device determines a modified Layer 2/Layer 3 route for the virtual endpoint at the second computing device, as well as a sequence number for association with the modified Layer 2/Layer 3 route. The sequence number is determined based on a sequence number associated with a parent Layer 2 route for the modified Layer 2/Layer 3 route.
