  • Responding to operator commands in a multi-homing ethernet virtual private network (EVPN)
    Patent number: 11658900
    Abstract: Systems and methods for extending Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) protocols are provided. A Link Aggregation Group (LAG), according to one implementation, includes a plurality of Ethernet Segments (ESs) and a plurality of service ports configured to communicate over the plurality of ESs. The service ports are configured to enable an operator device to access an EVPN to receive Layer 2 (L2) and Layer 3 (L3) Ethernet services. Also, the service ports are configured to enable the operator device to operate with multi-homing functionality to receive the L2 and L3 Ethernet services via redundant paths associated with the plurality of ESs. The services ports are further configured to respond to operator commands, whereby the operator commands include one or more operator commands related to switching among the redundant paths.
