Sami: Hi! Let’s go ahead and add the text to explain the operation with VXLAN – I think that the reference to rfc7348 should be Normative. I’ll take care of dealing with the downref when we’re ready with the new text. Thanks! Alvaro. On 4/12/17, 2:14 PM, "Sami Boutros" <sboutros@vmware.com> wrote: Hi Alia, Please see comments inline.

EVPN can work with different encapsulations a BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute That specifies the tunnel type will be added to the Ethernet A-D route. >That seems like another mode, like the >VLAN-based service, except > it is perhaps VNI + VLAN-based service?
