Is it possible to announce a default route as an EVPN Type-5 route from a FortiGate VM?

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

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"

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/#/

As I understand Fortigate does not support it, so it's not suitable for us.

 

Thank you for your answer @Anthony_E.
