Ethernet VPN (EVPN) is a technology for carrying layer 2 Ethernet traffic as a virtual private network using wide area network protocols. EVPN technologies include Ethernet over Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Ethernet over Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN).

EVPN uses encapsulation methods to enhance the efficiency and scalability of Ethernet traffic over MPLS or IP-based networks. The Ethernet frames are encapsulated within MPLS or VXLAN headers for transport.

In MPLS-based EVPN, Ethernet frames are encapsulated with:

The encapsulated packet flow includes:

EVPNs are covered by a number of Internet RFCs, including:
