Abstract:
   Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN, RFC7432) is becoming
   prevalent in Data Centers, Data Center Interconnect (DCI) and
   Service Provider VPN applications. When multi-homing from a CE to
   multiple PEs, including links in an EVPN instance on a given
   Ethernet Segment, in an all-active redundancy mode, [RFC7432]
   describes a basic mechanism to elect a Designated Forwarder (DF),
   and [RFC8584] improves basic DF election by a HRW algorithm. [I-
   D.ietf-bess-evpn-per-mcast-flow-df-election] enhances the HRW
   algorithm for the multicast flows to perform DF election at the
   granularity of (ESI, VLAN, Mcast flow). This document specifies a
   new algorithm, based on multicast bandwidth utilization and
   multicast state quantity, in order for the multicast flows to elect
   a DF.
