Feature Information

Cisco IOS XE Bengaluru 17.16.1

Single-Active Mode

In single-active mode, only one Virtual Tunnel Endpoint (VTEP), among a group of VTEPs that are attached to the particular Ethernet segment, is allowed to forward traffic to and from that Ethernet segment.

Multihoming in single-active mode was introduced only in the form of dual-homing, allowing a CE device to be connected to two VTEPs.

Cisco IOS XE 17.18.2

All-Active Mode

In all-active mode, downstream devices can connect to multiple VTEPs simultaneously using a standard PortChannel interface.

Cisco IOS XE 17.18.2

Hierarchical BGP Sessions

With hierarchical BGP sessions, EVPN multihoming with fabric control planes enables scalable and resilient campus networks by replacing legacy STP architectures with VXLAN fabric cores.

Cisco IOS XE 17.18.2

Routed Overlay

Routed overlay is virtual network built on top of a physical infrastructure and it uses VXLAN to securely connect endpoints.

Cisco IOS XE 17.18.2

Overlay: Distributed Anycast Gateway Routed

Distributed Anycast Gateway (DAG) is an overlay architecture that allows multiple leaf switches or VTEPs to share the exact same default gateway IP and MAC address for a given subnet across the fabric.

Cisco IOS XE 17.18.2

Overlay: Distributed Anycast Gateway Routed

In DAG bridged overlay inter-subnet traffic between different bridge domains is routed centrally, while this traffic remains bridged natively across the fabric.
