A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Centralized EVPN DF Election Authors : Weiguo Hao Lili Wang Yizhou Li Shunwan Zhuang Filename : draft-hao-bess-evpn-centralized-df-00.txt Pages : 10 Date : 2016-02-15 Abstract: This document proposes a centralized DF Designated Forwarder election mechanism to be used between the SDN(Software defined network) controller and each PE(Provider Edge) in EVPN network. Such a mechanism overcomes the issues of current standalone DF election defined in RFC7432. A new BGP capability and an additional DF Election Result Route Type are proposed to support the centralized DF mechanism.
