Which two statements are true about EVPN routes for Data Center Interconnect?

Type 2 EVPN Routes:

Type 2 routesadvertise MAC addresses within an EVPN instance and are used primarily for Layer 2 bridging. These routes do not require a VXLAN tunnel to the protocol next hop because they operate within the same Layer 2 domain.

Type 5 EVPN Routes:

Type 5 routesare used to advertise IP prefixes (Layer 3 routes) within EVPN. Similar to Type 2 routes, they do not require a VXLAN tunnel to the protocol next hop becausethey represent L3 routes, which are managed at the routing layer without the need for VXLAN encapsulation.

Conclusion:

Option B:Correct—Type 2 routes do not need a VXLAN tunnel to the next hop, as they are used for Layer 2.

Option D:Correct—Type 5 routes also do not need a VXLAN tunnel because they operate at Layer 3, handling IP prefixes.
