Abstract
Disclosed are a method and a system for EVPN message forwarding, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and a terminal device. The method includes: reading an Ethernet segment identifier (ESI) label from a message if the message contains the ESI label after receiving the message from an upstream device, and obtaining a port for an Ethernet segment (ES) corresponding to the ESI label according to the ESI label; reading an egress port for the message; and discarding the message if the port for the ES corresponding to the ESI label obtained according to the ESI label is the same as the egress port for the message.
