The IESG has received a request from the BGP Enabled ServiceS WG (bess) to consider the following document: - 'BGP based Multi-homing in Virtual Private LAN Service' <draft-ietf-bess-vpls-multihoming-05.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the last-call@ietf.org mailing lists by 2020-03-12. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) is a Layer 2 Virtual Private Network (VPN) that gives its customers the appearance that their sites are connected via a Local Area Network (LAN). It is often required for the Service Provider (SP) to give the customer redundant connectivity to some sites, often called "multi-homing". This memo shows how BGP-based multi-homing can be offered in the context of LDP and BGP VPLS solutions. This document updates RFC 4761 by defining new flags in the Control Flags field of the Layer2 Info Extended Community. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-vpls-multihoming/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-vpls-multihoming/ballot/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1809/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/3838/
