I am trying to build an EVPN VPWS service between Cisco ASR9K (XR6.4.2. sp 10) and Сisco NCS540 (XR 7.2.2). I have one ASR9K and two NCS540 for the remote site. On the remote site (NCS540) client switch is connected for each PE, and the interface has configured that single active. I have an issue with this Service. Evpn-VPWS came UP, but ASR 9K doesn`t choose which remote PE is Backup or primary.
Also if we look at the output on NCS 540, we can see that the Backup PE EVPN VPWS service hasn`t neighbor in output.
