The city wants efficient multicast for IPTV receivers inside a tenant VNI on the EVPN-VXLAN fabric. Which statement best reflects EVPN multicast concepts at professional depth?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
IPTV in a VNI should not mean "blast every leaf in the county." EVPN multicast features let the fabric signal who cares about which groups and tighten BUM delivery. Blind underlay floods and Type-5-only thinking miss that overlay signaling.
Full Explanation
EVPN-VXLAN fabrics combine IMET/SMET-style signaling, IGMP/MLD snooping integration, and BUM transport choices to constrain and optimize multicast delivery per VNI. Disabling EVPN for blind floods, relying on Type-5 alone, or hair-pinning all IPTV through a spine CPU without proper overlay design are not sound professional approaches.
