[dev] Question about EVPN route types

[Jay Chen]

Thank you, currently our potential customers seem immediate interest is type-2 (maybe type-3 too). if they need type-1, type-4 probably later phase (for multicast multi-home), we can develop too. We will sync up by then. Currently we just started integrate FRR (POC). 

Thanks,
Jay
