ote MAC sequence number must be interpreted if different sequence numbers ar=
e received for MAC and MAC-IP from the same remote PE. Implementing this spe=
cification ensures that the PE will be able to interoperate with another PE t=
hat does not synchronize sequence numbers between MAC and MAC-IP (using inhe=
ritance). It does not require any explicit knowledge of the remote PE being c=
ompliant or non-compliant or for this logic to be conditional based on remot=
e PE=E2=80=99s compliance. I have updated the text to be clearer in this reg=
ard.

 in RFC 9161, which is to not apply EVPN mobility and duplicate address dete=
ction procedures to anycast IPv6 hosts learnt via NA with O flag set to 0. I=
 have fixed the typo in the draft to explicitly refer to Override Flag (O Fl=
ag) so it can be clearly mapped to handling specified in RFC 9161.

 to maintain the behavior defined in RFC 9161, which is to not apply EVPN mo=
