PE-CE routing is the mechanism used to exchange customer prefix reachability between a provider edge or data center leaf and the attached customer edge router. It can be implemented statically or dynamically. Static routing is operationally simple but does not scale well when many prefixes or frequent changes are involved. BGP is preferred for larger deployments because it supports policy, route filtering, attributes, and automated advertisement of changing reachability. In most EVPN PE-CE designs, eBGP is preferred because it creates a clean routing boundary between the PE and CE, with each device operating in a different autonomous system. Option D is false because the CE does not advertise BGP EVPN route type 5 updates to the PE. The CE advertises ordinary IPv4 or IPv6 unicast prefixes over the PE-CE routing session. The PE then imports those customer prefixes into the IP-VRF and advertises them into the EVPN overlay as route type 5 IP Prefix routes toward other PEs. This distinction matters: EVPN signaling is a PE-to-PE overlay function, not a CE-originated EVPN control-plane role. Reference: PE-CE routing, eBGP, EVPN RT-5 prefix advertisement.

In an SR Linux Layer 2 EVPN MAC-VRF, locally attached MAC addresses are learned through the data plane on local access interfaces, while remote MAC addresses are learned from MP-BGP EVPN control-plane advertisements and installed with a VXLAN next-hop. The exhibit shows one local learned MAC on an Ethernet subinterface and another MAC learned through EVPN with a VXLAN interface and VNI 100. The remote VTEP or next-hop information identifies the remote endpoint, and the VNI maps the received VXLAN traffic to the correct MAC-VRF service. The false statement is C because saying that the MAC address associated with the vxlan-interface ''will not age out'' is too absolute. A remote EVPN MAC is not aged in the same way as a local data-plane-learned MAC, but it can still be removed when the corresponding EVPN route is withdrawn, invalidated, or no longer present in the control plane. The ''N/A'' style aging behavior does not mean permanent retention. Reference: SR Linux MAC-VRF verification, local MAC learning, EVPN-learned remote MACs, VXLAN VNI mapping.

Symmetric L3 EVPN routing uses an IP-VRF-based overlay model in which both ingress and egress PEs participate in routed forwarding. The ingress PE receives the frame from the local MAC-VRF, routes it into the IP-VRF, and sends it across the VXLAN routed interface. The egress PE receives the routed overlay packet, performs the corresponding IP-VRF lookup, and then forwards it into the locally attached destination MAC-VRF. Because the routed overlay is built per IP-VRF, a routed-VXLAN interface is required for that IP-VRF. EVPN route type 5 support is also required because RT-5 carries IP prefix reachability across the EVPN control plane. The false statement is option D. Symmetric routing specifically removes the requirement for every MAC-VRF to exist on every PE. A PE only needs the MAC-VRFs for locally attached subnets, plus the shared IP-VRF and routed overlay state. This is the major scaling advantage of symmetric routing compared with designs that require broad MAC-VRF instantiation across the fabric. Reference: symmetric L3 EVPN routing, routed VXLAN interface, RT-5 prefix reachability, MAC-VRF scaling.

When a new Layer 2 EVPN MAC-VRF instance is enabled, the PE advertises an Inclusive Multicast Ethernet Tag route, commonly called an IMET route or EVPN route type 3. The IMET route is used to auto-discover remote PEs that participate in the same EVPN service and to build the BUM flooding list for that MAC-VRF. In this topology, all leaf routers peer with the route reflector on Spine-1. Leaf-1 therefore advertises its IMET route to the route reflector, not directly to Leaf-2 and Leaf-3. The route reflector then reflects the EVPN update to the other client leaves. Leaf-2 and Leaf-3 import the route based on matching route-target policy and add Leaf-1 to the replication list for broadcast, unknown unicast, and multicast traffic. Option B is the step that is not taken because it incorrectly describes direct leaf-to-leaf EVPN advertisement. In a route-reflector design, the RR centralizes EVPN route distribution and avoids the need for a full mesh of MP-BGP EVPN sessions between leaves. Reference: EVPN RT-3 IMET route, route-reflector operation, BUM flooding-list auto-discovery.

This scenario describes all-active Layer 2 EVPN multi-homing with a host connected through a LAG to Leaf1 and Leaf2. The LAG subinterface is associated with the MAC-VRF on both participating leaves, and the Ethernet Segment ES-1 is configured for all-active multi-homing. In all-active operation, both leaf routers can be active attachment points for host-originated traffic, and remote traffic can use EVPN multi-homing mechanisms to reach the segment. Option D is false because the host does not know or use the EVPN Designated Forwarder state when sending BUM traffic. The host forwards over its LAG based on its local LAG hashing and LACP behavior. DF election is an EVPN PE-side mechanism used mainly to control which PE forwards BUM traffic from the EVPN overlay toward the Ethernet Segment, preventing duplicate delivery to the multihomed access network. The host itself does not selectively forward all BUM traffic toward the DF. That distinction is critical: DF controls overlay-to-segment replication, while the host's LAG controls host-to-leaf link selection. Reference: all-active L2 EVPN multi-homing, host LAG behavior, DF election scope, BUM forwarding.
