MP-BGP EVPN is a control protocol for VXLAN based on IETF RFC 7342. Prior to EVPN, VXLAN overlay networks operated using the flood-and-learn model. In this model, end-host information learning and VTEP discovery are both data-plane based, with no control protocol to distribute end-host reachability information among VTEPs. MP-BGP EVPN changes this model. It introduces control-plane learning for end hosts behind remote VTEPs. It provides control-plane and data-plane separation and a unified control plane for both Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding in a VXLAN overlay network.
