This chapter introduces the BGP EVPN Route Type1- Ethernet Auto-Discovery (Ethernet A-D) routes. The first section explains the Ethernet A-D per Ethernet Segment (ES) routes, which is mainly used for Fast Convergence. The second section discusses Ethernet A-D per EVI/ES route, which in turn is used for Load Balancing (also called Aliasing/Backup Path).
