Which of the following statements about EVPN services is FALSE?
Full set: 44 questionsEVPN is a versatile control plane that provides Layer 2 (VPLS-like) and Layer 3 (VPRN-like) connectivity using BGP. It uses a single BGP address family (AFI=25, SAFI=70) to advertise different route types for both L2 MAC addresses and L3 IP prefixes. EVPN is data plane agnostic, supporting encapsulations like MPLS and VXLAN. However, the term "backhaul VPLS" is a specific Nokia application referring to a VPLS service used for transport, often for mobile backhaul, and is not a standard term for a "local layer-2 EVPN service". A local EVPN service is simply an E-LAN or E-Line within a single site or data center.
A. This is the fundamental goal of EVPN: to provide flexible L2 and L3 VPN services over a common MPLS or IP network.
C. The EVPN BGP address family (L2VPN/EVPN) carries various route types, including MAC/IP routes (Type-2) for VPLS FDBs and IP Prefix routes (Type-5) for VPRN route tables.
D. EVPN is a control plane that is independent of the data plane encapsulation. It explicitly supports signaling for both MPLS and VXLAN tunnels.

2. IETF RFC 7432, "BGP MPLS-Based Ethernet VPN", Section 1, Page 4. "This document specifies the procedures for BGP MPLS-based EVPNs."
3. IETF RFC 8365, "A Network Virtualization Overlay Solution Using Ethernet VPN (EVPN)", Section 1, Page 3. "This document describes a solution for network virtualization overlays (NVOs) using EVPN."
4. Nokia 7750 SR OS Services Guide, Release 21.10.R1, "VPLS", Section: Backhaul VPLS. This section describes backhaul VPLS as a specific application, distinct from the general definition of an EVPN service.
