The feature allows to create a named TC to DSCP mapping that can be applied on an interface.DSCP of routed packets egressing out of the interface will be rewritten according to the map.

EVPN route advertisements carry RD and RT. RD (Route Distinguisher) : prepend to the tenant’s IP Prefix or MAC address to make it globally unique. RT (Route Target) : a BGP extended community used to tag the EVPN route.  The EVPN import policy is chosen to select what is the target tenant VRF is imported from the global EVPN table.

Normally, a switch traps L2 protocol frames to the CPU. However, certain use-cases may require these frames to be forwarded or dropped. And in cases where the L2 protocol frames are forwarded (eg: Pseudowire), we may require the frames to be trapped to the CPU or dropped. The L2 Protocol Forwarding feature provides a mechanism to control the behavior of L2 protocol frames received on a port or subinterface.

Lanz Mirroring feature allows users to automatically mirror traffic queued as a result of congestion to either CPU or a different interface.

IP traceroute and path MTU (PMTU) discovery both require that routers send ICMP reply messages to the host that invokes each network function. When the route to the destination host traverses an MPLS label-switched path (LSP), the label switching routers (LSRs) will also need to send ICMP reply messages to the originating host.
