Dear draft-burdet-bess-evpn-fast-reroute-09 co-authors,
Your clarification for the following question will be most appreciated, Examination of the EVPN FRR procedures described in current draft raise the following question with regards to the ERL advertiser PE behavior in case of AC Aware bundle service. When a multihomed PE receives an ERL labeled packet from another multihomed ES mate PE, how does it know to which of the ACs (Port/VLAN) shall it send the received packet? As per draft-ietf-bess-evpn-ac-aware-bundling-04 section 4.2.1 the MAC lookup on the MH Mate PE that received that packet from Remote PE with ESL must provide an outgoing port along with the VLAN value. To clarify this use case we may want to explicitly require that the MH PE that performs the FRR procedure MUST make sure that the packet is VLAN tagged before adding the ERL label and send to the Mate PE. This enables the PE that receives the ERL labeled packet to select the right AC (port/VLAN) to send the rerouted packet.
