In interface-less symmetric routing, the EVPN fabric exchanges host forwarding information using EVPN route type 2 MAC/IP advertisements. RT-2 carries the host MAC address and, when present, the associated host IP address, allowing remote PEs to build the forwarding state needed for distributed gateway operation. Unlike asymmetric routing, interface-less symmetric routing does not require every MAC-VRF to be instantiated on every PE. The design scales better because each leaf only needs the locally attached MAC-VRFs plus the shared IP-VRF/routed VXLAN construct for inter-subnet forwarding. Option B describes an asymmetric forwarding pattern more than a symmetric one; in symmetric routing, both ingress and egress PEs perform routed forwarding functions through the IP-VRF. Option C is also incorrect because anycast gateway is fundamental when multiple leaves provide the same default-gateway service for a subnet. Therefore, the true statement is that forwarding information is exchanged using EVPN route type 2 updates. Reference: interface-less symmetric routing, EVPN RT-2 host MAC/IP signaling, distributed IRB operation.

The scenario describes Layer 3 EVPN multi-homing with an IP-VRF service and an external CE VNF advertising the 40.40.40.0/24 prefix through BGP. A DF election can occur among the leaf routers participating in the Ethernet Segment, and the active/primary forwarding node is used for the relevant service behavior. The AD per EVI route can participate in identifying service-level reachability for the Ethernet Segment, and the prefix traffic follows the valid advertised path toward the CE VNF. Because Leaf3 has the BGP connection to the CE VNF, traffic for 40.40.40.0/24 is forwarded through Leaf3. Option B is false because it incorrectly states that all connected leaf routers will use single-active redundancy. The exhibit and answer context indicate a more specific forwarding/primary selection for the service, not a blanket statement that every connected leaf operates using single-active redundancy. In L3 multi-homing, redundancy behavior depends on the ES mode, prefix advertisement, next-hop association, and CE connectivity. The forwarding decision for the customer prefix is tied to the active/valid route advertisement, not to every leaf uniformly acting as single-active. Reference: L3 EVPN multi-homing, DF election, AD per EVI role, PE-CE BGP prefix forwarding.

A Gratuitous ARP is an ARP message a host sends to announce or refresh its own IP-to-MAC binding without waiting for another host to request it. In a traditional Ethernet subnet, the GARP is sent as a broadcast so that other hosts can update their ARP caches with the sender's current MAC address. This is useful after a host boots, changes NICs, moves to another attachment point, or takes over an IP address in a redundancy scenario. In EVPN environments, GARPs are also important because a leaf can snoop the ARP information and update local proxy ARP and EVPN MAC/IP state. Option D is false because recipients do not acknowledge a gratuitous ARP with a reply. GARP is an announcement mechanism, not a request/response transaction. If every receiving host acknowledged a broadcast GARP, the result would be unnecessary ARP traffic amplification. The correct behavior is passive update of ARP state by receiving systems and, in EVPN, potential control-plane propagation of the learned binding by the local PE. Reference: GARP behavior, proxy ARP learning, Layer 2 EVPN endpoint update procedures.
