Configuring EVI

Overview

Ethernet Virtualization Interconnect (EVI) is a MAC-in-IP technology that provides Layer 2 connectivity

between distant Layer 2 network sites across an IP routed network. It is used for connecting

geographically dispersed sites of a virtualized large-scale data center that requires Layer 2 adjacency

(see Figure 1).

EVI enables long-distance virtual machine workload mobility and data mobility, disaster recovery and

business continuity. For example, virtual machines can move between data center sites without changing

their IP addresses, so their movements are transparent to users and do not interrupt traffic.

Figure 1 Virtual machine migration

Layer 2 connectivity extension issues

EVI resolves the following Layer 2 connectivity extension issues:

•Site independence—EVI keeps protocol failures, such as broadcast storms, from propagating

across sites.

•Transport independence—EVI has no special requirements for site location or transport network

type, except that the transport network can forward IP packets.

•High availability—EVI supports redundant edge devices and has a loop-free mechanism to prevent

loops for a multihomed network site.

•Link efficiency—EVI optimizes the inter-site multicast and broadcast transmission mechanism and

implements load-sharing on redundant links.

•Site and transport transparency—EVI is both site and transport network transparent. It has no

special site or transport network topology requirements.

•Easy management and maintenance—EVI requires deployment only on edge devices and does not

introduce any topology change or configuration within sites or the transport network.

Network topologies

As shown in Figure 2, an EVI network comprises one or multiple edge devices at each site. These sites are

connected through virtual links across an IP-based transport network and run the EVI IS-IS protocol to

advertise their MAC address entries to each other. EVI maintains MAC routing information on the edge

devices without changing the forwarding or routing information within the sites or the transport network.

Figure 2 EVI network

EVI supports multiple EVI networks on an edge device for extending different VLANs across the Layer 3

network. One EVI network can convey multiple VLANs, but one VLAN can map to only one EVI network.

Each EVI network has separate network parameters and independently forwards traffic.

As shown in Figure 3, EVI network 1 extends VLAN 100 and VLAN 101 to Site 2, Site 3, and Site 4 for

Web access traffic. EVI network 2 extends VLAN 4000 (the management VLAN) to all sites, and EVI

network 3 extends VLANs 50 to 80 between Site 1 and Site 4 for database traffic.

Terminology

Edge device

An edge device performs typical Layer 2 learning and forwarding on the site-facing interfaces (internal

interfaces) and performs tunneling and routing on the transport-facing interfaces.

EVI network ID

An edge device can belong to multiple EVI networks. Each EVI network is uniquely identified by a

network ID.

EVI link

An EVI link is a bidirectional virtual Ethernet channel between a pair of edge devices in an EVI network.

EVI links are conveyed on EVI tunnels. Each EVI link is uniquely identified by a pair of source and

destination EVI tunnel IP addresses.

EVI tunnel

An EVI tunnel is a point-to-many automatic GRE tunnel that conveys EVI links for an EVI network. One EVI

tunnel can serve only one EVI network.

EVI neighbor

All edge devices in an EVI network are EVI neighbors to one other.

ENDP

EVI Neighbor Discovery Protocol uses the client/server model to dynamically discover sites and edge

devices, establish and maintain EVI links, and exchange network membership information in an EVI

network.

ENDS

An EVI neighbor discovery server maintains all neighbor information in an EVI network. An EVI network

can have up to two ENDSs.
