API Guide

• In manual EVI mode, you must configure the same RD and RT values on both VTEP peers.
In an EVPN configuration, increase the VLT delay-restore timer to allow for BGP EVPN adjacency to establish and for the remote MAC
and neighbor entries to download by EVPN and install in the dataplane. The VLT delay-restore determines the amount of time the VLT
LAGs are kept operationally down at bootup to allow the dataplane to set up and forward traffic, resulting in minimal traffic loss as the VLT
peer node boots up and joins the VLT domain.
For a sample BGP EVPN VLT configuration, see Example: VXLAN with BGP EVPN.
