Jorge,
Lots of thanks for a prompt response.
As Donald has mentioned, 7432 simply left Ethernet service OAM out of scope, so
there are quite a few things tbat require specification in this area..
Regards

Sasha,
That is an excellent point. I agree the text should say that any MEP/MIP MAC
addresses local to the PE should be advertised in EVPN.
I would even add that, since those MACs are not subject to mobility, the PE
should advertise them as “static”, i.e., with sticky bit set.
Thanks.
Jorge

Donald,
Lots of thanks again for a primpt response.
Explicitly stafing that an EVPN PE supporting customer level Ethernet service
OAM MUST adverise locally learned MAC addresses of the customer's MEPS would
address my concerns.

Does this make sense to you? I would agree that a PE has to advertise the MAC
addresses it learns from the local reception Ethernet Service OAM frames if it
wants to support that service and it would be reasonable to mention this in the
EVPN OAM framework document. RFC 7432 was not considering OAM. Thanks, Donald

indirectly referenced in Section 2..4 of the draft via the reference to RFC
6425 but there are others. Since OAM messages need to follow the same path as
data, as far as practical, it seem to me there should not be any FECs allocated
for OAM beyond those already needed for data. Probably wording in the draft
related to FECs should be checked/adjusted. Thanks, Donald
