I have working EVPN setup to Proxmox SDN, how to announce a default route as an EVPN Type-5 route?
Also how to list evpn advertised-routes to certain peer? As i understand this is for unicats address family only:
get router info bgp neighbors 10.0.4.1 advertised-routes
My current configuration
config system evpn
edit 10001
set rd "65000:200001"
set import-rt "65000:200001"
set export-rt "65000:200001"
set ip-local-learning enable
set arp-suppression enable
next
edit 10002
set rd "65000:200002"
set import-rt "65000:200002"
set export-rt "65000:200002"
set ip-local-learning enable
set arp-suppression enable
next
end
config system vxlan
edit "vxlan200001"
set interface "port2"
set vni 200001
set evpn-id 10001
set learn-from-traffic enable
next
edit "vxlan200002"
set interface "port2"
set vni 200002
set evpn-id 10002
set learn-from-traffic enable
next
config system switch-interface
edit "sw-vxlan200001"
set vdom "root"
set member "vxlan200001"
next
edit "sw-vxlan200002"
set vdom "root"
set member "vxlan200002"
set intra-switch-policy explicit
next
end
config router bgp
set as 65000
set router-id 10.0.7.2
set ibgp-multipath enable
set recursive-next-hop enable
set graceful-restart enable
config neighbor-group
edit "proxmox"
set activate-vpnv4 disable
set activate-vpnv6 disable
set capability-graceful-restart enable
set capability-graceful-restart-evpn enable
set capability-default-originate enable
set link-down-failover enable
set soft-reconfiguration enable
set soft-reconfiguration-evpn enable
set remote-as 65000
set restart-time 120
next
end
config neighbor-range
edit 1
set prefix 10.0.4.0 255.255.252.0
set neighbor-group "proxmox"
next
end
config redistribute "connected"
end
config redistribute "rip"
end
config redistribute "ospf"
end
config redistribute "static"
end
config redistribute "isis"
end
config redistribute6 "connected"

Hello,
The documentation does not explicitly state that a default route can be announced as an EVPN Type-5 route from a FortiGate. However, EVPN Type-5 routes are used for IP prefix routes, which may include default routes. Further configuration details or confirmation from Fortinet support may be required: https://support.fortinet.com/welcome/#/
Regards,
As I understand Fortigate does not support it, so it's not suitable for us.
Thank you for your answer @Anthony_E.
