Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present application relates to the communication field, and in particular to a communication method, device and system for avoiding loops. Background technique
[0002] Ethernet virtual private network (ethernet virtual private network, EVPN) provides an all-active mode. In the all-active mode, when a device is multi-homed to multiple provider edges , PE) device, the multiple PE devices can forward traffic to the device. When the multiple PE devices refer to two PE devices, the aforementioned multi-active mode may also be called a dual-active mode, and the aforementioned multi-homing may also be called dual-homed.
[0003] In the EVPN active-active mode, when the interfaces connecting the two PE devices to the customer edge (CE) device are both in a fault state, a loop problem will be caused. For example, if figure 1 As shown in the figure, CE equipment CE1 is dual-homed to PE equipment PE1 and PE2, and PE1 and PE2 are in the active-active mode....
