Type 5 VTEP Capability using Type 5 routes

For this we will base on this VTEP capability table when using EVPN (Type 5 VTEP, Routes)   Protocol Description MX3-QSFP28-4 (100G) FX3-QSFP28-4 (100G) MX3-100GQ-T2 (100G) FX3-100GQ-T2 (100G) Segments Per Port Single VTEP (EVPN) EVPN (with enable scale mode option true) 6500 2000 6500 2000 VTEPs Per Port Single Segment (EVPN) EVPN (with enable scale mode option true) 6000 2000 6000 2000 Segments Per Port Single VTEP (EVPN) (Single Block) EVPN (with enable scale mode option true) 10000 3000 10000 3000 Maximum VNIs Per Port One VTEP (EVPN) EVPN (with enable scale mode option true) 30000 9000 30000 9000 Maximum VMs Per Port On VTEP (EVPN) EVPN (with enable scale mode option true) 30000 9000 30000 9000   These are basic values, but it would help, for example an MX3-QSFP28-4 allows up to 6000 vteps per port, if the VTEP has a Single segment, now for the same model you can scale up to 6500 Segments per port if this has a single VTEP. You just need to adjust on the numbers:   Based on this information you could deduce for example: If you need 4 segments across all Vteps on MX3-QSFP28-4 then you'll have 1500 VTEPs per port(6000 VTEPS/4 segments), 4 ports per Device, 6000 VTEPs per device, that means you'll need at least 6 MX3-QSFP28-4.
