set vxlans l3-vni prefix-routes-only

Run the command set vxlans l3-vni prefix-routes-only to advertise the prefix routes only. Without this command prefix routes wont be advertised to the peer devices.

Note that this configuration its mandatory in asymmetric EVPN routing model where we want to advertise the Type-5 prefix routes. In symmetric EVPN routing model however, we will use the command set vxlans l3-vni <vni-id> to advertise host routes as Type-2 advertisements and Type-5 prefix routes.

set vxlans vrf <vrf-name> l3-vni <vni-id> prefix-routes-only

delete vxlans vrf <vrf-name> l3-vni <vni-id> prefix-routes-only
