Subject: [bess] a question about bundled service in draft-ietf-bess-evpn-overlay-08


This is what the draft says about bundled service:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-bess-evpn-overlay-08#section-4
>>>

8) When a 802.1Q interface is used between a CE and a PE, each of the
   VLAN ID (VID) on that interface can be mapped onto a bridge table
   (for upto 4094 such bridge tables). All these bridge tables may be
   mapped onto a single MAC-VRF (in case of VLAN-aware bundle service).

>>>

So it sounds like 1:1 is supported (that's the straightforward case where the inner VLAD ID is stripped from the encap'ed packet) and All:1 is supported (i.e. the service is blind to the incoming tag and just preserves it as is, potentially with normalization if translation is required).

What about the case for n:1 where I want some subset of VLAN IDs coming in on a port to map to VNID1, and another subset map to VNID2?  Is that explicitly disallowed?  If so, why?

That's is also supported. Refer to section 6 of RFC 7432 for different service interfaces that are supported.

Cheers,
Ali
