EOS cli config schema for bgp/address-family-evpn missing neighbor list about ansible-avd HOT 3 OPEN

Hello - thanks for opening this issue - this is not present as it was never required so far (AVD is using peer groups rather than network neighbor statements for EVPN). Remarked this as an enhancement and hopefully someone can pick this up. If you are interested in adding it yourself let us know and we can provide guidance.

Thanks for reading.
However the peers associated with AF EVPN have to be defined somehow presently we use peer_group with the name key set to the peer IP address, works but kludgey (-- you mention network statements above, that is not related to my issue and network statements cannot substitute for peer identities).

Anyway, I would hope it'd be fairly simple to add (reference data more than code) since those same settings are already present in other address-families?

Thanks - updated my comment I meant neighbor and not network.

This is how it is done today in AVD. You should be able to do the same though I don't know your usecase.

That being said, adding neighbor under EVPN address family should be fairly simple so someone may pick it up as a good first issue.
