    Example BGP EVPN Profile

    1. Edit the fields in any of the sections. Refer to Creating a BGP EVPN Route Reflector Profile and Creating a BGP EVPN Full Mesh Profile for descriptions of the individual fields.
    2. Click OK to save and apply the changes.

      The controller compares the local configuration on the ICX switches in the switch group with the changes in the BGP EVPN profile, and deploys the appropriate ICX CLI commands to the target ICX switches to deploy the changes.

      Note: If you apply BGP EVPN or VXLAN configuration changes to any of the ICX switches using other methods outside of the SmartZone controller (for example, CLI, SNMP, WebUI, or RESTConf), the controller will sync the data to the database using its local sync mechanism.
