Explanation

In an EVPN E-Tree service, only traffic from root nodes can be forwarded to both roots and leaves, while leaf nodes can only communicate with roots, not directly with each other. Since PE2 and PE3 are configured as leaves, they cannot exchange traffic. To allow communication, one of them must be configured as a root node.
