Abstract

A connectivity detection session creation method, a network device, and a system, to create a connectivity detection session in an EVPN. The method includes: receiving, by the first network device, a creation message of a connectivity detection session from the second network device, where the creation message of the connectivity detection session carries an inclusive multicast route of the second network device and session information of the second network device; determining, by the first network device, that a local inclusive multicast routing table includes the inclusive multicast route of the second network device; and creating, by the first network device, the connectivity detection session with the second network device based on the session information of the second network device.
