INTERWORKING OF ETHERNET VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK (EVPN) AND PUBLIC NETWORK

摘要

The present application provides a method for interworking between an ethernet virtual private network (EVPN) and a public network, and a network device. In the present embodiments, a network device learns EVPN routing; it is determined whether a route distinguisher (RT) corresponding to said EVPN routing is the same as an import RT of the public-network example configured by the present network device; if so, then adding the EVPN routing to a routing table of the local public network; a packet is received, said packet being a packet of the public network accessing the EVPN or being a packet of the EVPN accessing the public network; routing used for forwarding a packet is matched in the routing table of the local public network, and the packet is forwarded according to the matched routing.
