Abstract
Packet processing in a EVPN L2 MPLS deployment includes performing tag editing operations in the egress pipeline. More particularly, tag manipulation is based on the egress port. Packet processing further includes performing ESI label selection in the egress pipeline, and includes selecting the ESI label based on the ingress port where the ingress port can be a physical port or a subinterface configured on a physical port.
