Comprehensive and Detailed 150 to 250 words of Explanation From [SR Linux EVPN and Data Center Interconnect/Course Guide/topics]:

In asymmetric EVPN IRB, the ingress PE performs routing from the source subnet into the destination subnet, then forwards the packet across the VXLAN overlay using the destination MAC-VRF/VNI. The egress PE does not perform another IP-VRF lookup for that packet; it performs Layer 2 forwarding in the destination MAC-VRF. In this scenario, Host-2 sends traffic toward Host-1. After the ingress routing decision, the traffic arrives at Leaf-2 in the context of the destination MAC-VRF, mac-vrf-1. Leaf-2 then performs a MAC lookup in mac-vrf-1 and forwards the frame to Host-1. Option D is therefore correct. Option A reverses the forwarding direction and misidentifies the leaf action. Option B incorrectly sends mac-vrf-2 traffic toward the IP-VRF on Leaf-2, even though Leaf-2 is acting as the egress PE for Host-1. Option C is also incorrect because the egress forwarding action is based on the MAC table in the destination MAC-VRF, not an IP-VRF ARP lookup at that stage. Reference: asymmetric L3 EVPN IRB data-plane operation, ingress routing and egress MAC forwarding.
