Worked on enhancing EVPN VXLAN Multihoming in the sonic-net/SONiC repository by delivering a high-level design update focused on improving resilience and traffic performance during failures. The approach involved implementing a detailed LAG failure handling sequence using SAI and VxLAN, specifically leveraging SAI_BRIDGE_PORT_ATTR_BRIDGE_PORT_SET_SWITCHOVER and refining MAC learning behavior with SAI_FDB_ENTRY_TYPE_STATIC and SAI_FDB_ENTRY_ATTR_ALLOW_MAC_MOVE. Addressed edge cases in MAC learn events after FDB entries became dynamic, reducing risk during failover scenarios. All changes were thoroughly documented in Markdown, supporting future maintenance and providing clearer design guidance for EVPN VXLAN Multihoming within SONiC.

May 1, 2026May 2026 monthly summary for sonic-net/SONiC: Focused on EVPN VXLAN Multihoming enhancements to improve resilience and traffic performance during failures, with PR-aligned implementation changes. Implemented a detailed LAG failure handling sequence using SAI_BRIDGE_PORT_ATTR_BRIDGE_PORT_SET_SWITCHOVER and updated MAC learning behavior and FDB entry handling (SAI_FDB_ENTRY_TYPE_STATIC and SAI_FDB_ENTRY_ATTR_ALLOW_MAC_MOVE). Clarified MAC learn events after FDB entries become dynamic, addressing edge cases and reducing risk during failover. The work is documented in commit 49bab5b5ff0e924f1ea52b3d9db0dfa4191a7c06 and supports future maintenance. Impact: higher fault tolerance, more predictable performance, and clearer design for EVPN VXLAN Multihoming in SONiC.
