EVPN gateway support for all-active (A-A) multihoming adds a new redundancy model to our multi-domain EVPN solution introduced in [1]. This deployment model introduces the concept of a WAN Interconnect Ethernet Segment identifier (WAN I-ESI). The WAN I-ESI allows the gateway’s EVPN neighbors to form L2 and L3 overlay ECMP on routes re-exported by the gateways. The identifier is shared by gateway nodes within the same domain (site) and set in MAC-IP routes that cross domain boundaries.

FIPS is a US federal standard for computer systems and data security that mandates only compliant cryptographic algorithms and their implementations be used in a product’s cryptographic operations. A product is considered FIPS compliant if it uses verified crypto modules that have been certified by a laboratory approved by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). CloudVision has completed the FIPS certification process to allow users with both single-node and multi-node clusters to operate in FIPS mode. Intra-node communication is not yet certified and will follow in Phase 2.
