Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to assisting forwarding of multicast traffic over Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) from a multicast source to a host multi-homed to multiple provider edge (PE) devices. Embodiments are based on the inclusion of an Ethernet Segment Identification (ESI) to EVPN type-6 routes advertised by PE devices which received a multicast Join message. Other PE devices receiving such routes are able to determine whether they belong to the ES identified by the ESI and to determine whether they are designated forwarders (DFs) for the host. Furthermore, PE devices which are the DFs are configured to re-originate the EVPN type-6 routes, i.e. re-send the advertisements, indicating themselves as DFs. This ensures that a remote PE device associated with the multicast source will also send multicast traffic to such DF PE devices, which, in turn, would allow the multicast traffic to successfully reach the host.

Abstract: Access-side loop mitigation may be provided. First, a first edge device may determine that a duplicate host exists on a network. Then the first edge device may detect a loop in response to determining that the duplicate host exists on the network. Detecting the loop may comprise sending a message on a plurality of access-side ports of the first edge device and then receiving, in response to sending the message on the plurality of access-side ports of the first edge device, a response on a first access-side port of the plurality of access-side ports of the first edge device. Next, the first edge device may mitigate the detected loop in response to receiving the response.
