Secure IP Binding Synchronization via BGP EVPN
The distribution of clients of L2 domain across extended, networks
leveraging overlay fabric, needs to deal with synchronizing the
Client Binding Database. The 'Client IP Binding' indicates the IP,
MAC and VLAN details of the clients that are learnt by security
protocols. Since learning 'Client IP Binding database' is last mile
solution, this information stays local to the end point switch, to
which clients are connected. When networks are extended across
geographies, that is, both layer2 and layer3, the 'Client IP Binding
Database' in end point of switches of remote fabrics should be in
sync. This literature intends to align the synchronization of
'Client IP Binding Database" through an extension to BGP control
plane constructs and as BGP is a typical control plane protocol
configured to communicate across network boundries.
