Abstract:
   Ethernet VPN (EVPN) provides a service that allows a single Local
   Area Network (LAN), i.e., a single IP subnet, to be distributed over
   multiple sites.  The sites are interconnected by an IP or MPLS
   backbone.  Intra-subnet traffic (either unicast or multicast) always
   appears to the endusers to be bridged, even when it is actually
   carried over the IP backbone.  When a single "tenant" owns multiple
   such LANs, EVPN also allows IP unicast traffic to be routed between
   those LANs.  This document specifies new procedures that allow inter-
   subnet IP multicast traffic to be routed among the LANs of a given
   tenant, while still making intra-subnet IP multicast traffic appear
   to be bridged.  These procedures can provide optimal routing of the
   inter-subnet multicast traffic, and do not require any such traffic
   to leave a given router and then reenter that same router.  These
   procedures also accommodate IP multicast traffic that needs to travel
   to or from systems that are outside the EVPN domain.
