Add support for Tenant Routed Multicast (TRM) VRF EVPN-mcast configuration in the iosxe_vrf resource for EVPN/VXLAN fabric deployments. New attributes: - ipv4_evpn_mcast_mdt_default_address - ipv4_evpn_mcast_anycast - ipv4_evpn_mcast_data_address - ipv4_evpn_mcast_data_mask_bits YANG paths: - address-family/ipv4/evpn-mcast/mdt-def-addr - address-family/ipv4/evpn-mcast/anycast - address-family/ipv4/evpn-mcast/data/data-addr - address-family/ipv4/evpn-mcast/data/mask-bits Minimum IOS-XE version supported: 17.15.1 Note: New attributes excluded from acceptance tests due to mutual exclusivity with traditional MDT configuration and EVPN fabric prerequisites not available in standard test environment.
Add IPv6 support for Tenant Routed Multicast (TRM) VRF EVPN-mcast configuration in the iosxe_vrf resource for EVPN/VXLAN fabric deployments. Added IPv6 EVPN-mcast attributes to gen/definitions/vrf.yaml: - ipv6_evpn_mcast_mdt_default_address - ipv6_evpn_mcast_anycast - ipv6_evpn_mcast_data_address - ipv6_evpn_mcast_data_mask_bits **NOTE**: New IPv6 EVPN-mcast attributes are excluded from automated tests due to EVPN/VXLAN fabric prerequisites not available in standard test environment. - *This includes the current lack of provider support for the `vnid <vnid_number> evpn-instance vni <nve_l3vni_number> core-vlan <vlan_number>` CLI configuration.* Minimum IOS-XE version supported: 17.15.1

This PR adds support for TRM VRF EVPN-Mcast configuration in the Terraform Provider.
Overview
This PR adds support for Tenant Routed Multicast (TRM) VRF EVPN-Multicast configuration in the
iosxe_vrfresource in the Terraform Provider.This extends the
iosxe_vrfresource with 8 new EVPN-Multicast-related attributes:New Attributes

gen/definitions/vrf.yamlinternal/provider/model_iosxe_vrf.gointernal/provider/resource_iosxe_vrf.gointernal/provider/resource_iosxe_vrf_test.godocs/resources/vrf.mdNote on Acceptance Test Exclusion
The new EVPN-mcast attributes are tagged with
exclude_test: truein the resource definition. This is intentional and necessary because:Mutual Exclusivity: The
evpn-mcastconfiguration is mutually exclusive with traditionalmdt(Multicast Distribution Tree) configuration under the same VRF address-family. The existing acceptance tests already validate the traditional MDT attributes, and attempting to configure both simultaneously results in a device error:"inconsistent value: Device refused one or more commands".Fabric Prerequisites: EVPN-mcast requires a fully configured EVPN/VXLAN fabric environment including VNID configuration, EVPN instance, NVE interface, BGP EVPN peering, and multicast underlay.
The YANG path mappings have been validated against the IOS-XE 17.15.1 YANG models.
Current Caveats to Function and Support
IMPORTANT:
Provider support for the
vnid <vnid_number> evpn-instance vni <nve_l3vni_number> core-vlan <vlan_number>CLI command (vrf) does not yet exist. Support for this command is a prerequisite to the new attributes introduced in this PR.Related Issues
