Dear all,
In my understanding VxLAN-EVPN has ingress replication unicast mode which can use under BGP address-family l2vpn evpn
However there is also can be functioning under BGP address-family ipv4 unicast.
These two AF mode can do the same thing to some extend however actually it is feature difference between them.
So I appreciate if there is any useful URL to understand these two features.
For example iBGP can be possible to use next-hop-self normally however EVPN does not have why?
