  • 1.  mpls-evpn vlan-based vpn L3 gateway assistance

    Posted 06-25-2021 13:23
    I have the following topology

    I am learning how L3 Gateway  works in mpls-evpn environment.  The issue I have now is I can ping 172.16.1.5 from 192.168.1.1 and 172.16.1.6 from 192.168.1.2, but I can't ping 172.16.1.5 from 192.168.1.2 and 172.16.1.6 from 192.168.1.1.

    When I ping 172.16.1.5 form 192.168.1.2, icmp request reaches 172.16.1.5, but icmp reply comes back through R5 ---> R1 , R1 sends ARP out on the interface facing CE1,  I do not know why not R5 ---> R1 ---->R2 ?

    thanks !!

    One thing I am not clear is:
    network in evpn instance can communicate with the global instance by default or I need to do some work for them to be able to communicate ?

    thanks a lot !!

    Hi Gongyayu, based on your config you should be able to ping 192.168.1.254 (the gateway) from both CE1 and CE2. Interface irb.110 is the anycast gateway ip of the evpn domain, however it still participates in global routing table, this explains why they show up under inet.0. You can also add the irb interface to other instances of you need them to resolve in another table.

    Set routing-instance x interface irb.110​

    My issue is CE2 (192.168.1.2) can ping R6 172.16.1.6 and CE1 (192.168.1.1) can ping R5172.16.1.5, but CE2 can't ping R5 172.16.1.5 and CE1 can't ping R6 172.16.1.6.

    When I monitored the traffic, I noticed when I pinged R5 from CE2, the traffic forwarded CE2 ----> R2 ----->R6 ------->R5 --------> R1 ------->CE1

    I  am lost here.

    thanks for any insights !!

    Hi Gongyayu,
    there seem to be a typo somewhere, please confirm 172.16.1.1 is R1, and 172.16.1.2 is R2. so you can ping R1 from CE1 and R2 from CE2. so far so good.  the issue you are reporting is you can not ping R5/R6 from CE1/CE2, please correct me if this is not the case. 
     if I understood you correctly, then you should do some investigation on routing. check for routes to 192.168.1/24 prefix from R5/R6. you should be able to at least ping 192.168.1.254 from both R5/R6 (if R5/R6 participate in the same OSPF Area0 as R1/.R2). if this is the case, then check CE's routing table. how does your routing table look like on CE1/CE2? it might be useful to share configuration and routing table of R5/R6 as well.
