BGP EVPN

Border Gateway Protocol - Ethernet VPN (BGP EVPN) is a modern networking technology that combines BGP and EVPN to deliver scalable Layer 2 and Layer 3 VPN services for multi-tenant and virtualized environments.

BGP EVPN leverages BGP as the control plane for exchanging MAC and IP reachability information, enabling efficient, policy-driven delivery of VPN services across IP/MPLS networks. It supports network virtualization, workload mobility, and tenant isolation using technologies like VXLAN and MPLS.

Key benefits include scalability, flexibility, interoperability, and future-proofing for data center and service provider networks. BGP EVPN simplifies network design, enhances multi-tenancy, and integrates with SDN/orchestration platforms for dynamic service provisioning.

Best practices include designing for redundancy, monitoring route propagation, and ensuring standards compliance for seamless integration with diverse network equipment.
