Hi guys,
I hope you're doing well.  We have a Peering Fabric that has many sites and
we are facing some limitations with our current plain layer 2 model, so we
are looking to migrate it to a EVPN+VXLAN topology for better scalability
and better use of all the links (some of them currently unused due to STP).
However, during my research I have seen some problems that some IXPs have
suffered due to compatibility issues between EVPN+VXLAN and port-security.
Talking with some IXP operators they have told me of some issues with
EVPN+VXLAN and port-security in Cisco devices. I was wondering if anyone
has some real-world experience with EVPN+VXLAN and port-security in Arista
devices?

Here is one of the challenges I have found:
