I created a network diagram for "l2vpn evpn" implementation.
I used this instruction vxlan-bgp-vpn
Each VTEP opens a BGP session with central Route-Reflector (RR), sends its information (MACs and VNIs) and receives others.
On RR we use the feature "bgp listen range 22.22.22.0/24 peer-group fabric". Therefore, we don't need to configure each neighbor, they have connected via BGP automatically.
Because At this stage, the VyOS doesn't support all the necessary commands, some of them are loaded from the "/config/scripts/vyos-postconfig-bootup.script".
These are mainly such commands:
sudo ip link add vxlan14 type vxlan id 14 dstport 8472 local 22.22.22.5 nolearning vtysh -c "conf t" -c "router bgp 65001" -c " address-family l2vpn evpn" -c " neighbor fabric activate" -c " advertise-all-vni "
In the configuration, I don't use default routes.
Router configurations below.
So we can ping from VPC11 = > VPC12
l-11> ping 10.11.11.102 -c 3 84 bytes from 10.11.11.102 icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=3.777 ms 84 bytes from 10.11.11.102 icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=3.134 ms 84 bytes from 10.11.11.102 icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=3.109 ms l-11>
