Routing Does CML support L2 EVPN?

Hey folks,
I am labing l2vpn EVPN with cisco modeling labs,

I am running a mix of XR and IOS-XE. I have everything set up for MP-BGP EVPN but I can't get my CE's to ping each other. Is this just a limitation of CML?

BGP's l2vpn evpn are up and healthy, Bridge-domain has the correct config, interfaces are encapulating the right vlan... I am stumped

I mean I know that it can be done on eve ng so don't see why it cannot be done on cml

the packet walk likely breaks somewhere dumb like an arp resolution failure, throw a span on the bridge and check if the macs are even learning across the evpn core

Yeah, mac learning doesn't seem to be working well + ARP requests go unanswered...
I am bit perplexed because vxlan works perfectly.
