Abstract:
Draft [overlay-cp] has introduced some control plan requirements and
characteristics. From NVE's perspective, this draft describes what
assistance is needed to make NVE satisfy the requirements and
characteristics introduce in [overlay-cp]. Not all of these
assistance is necessarily achieved by an external controller. Some
of the assistance requirements can be regarded as a complementarity
requirements to [overlay-cp] . while others are requirements to an
assistance Database. This draft also provide considerations on how
the network virtualization architecture should be like and how these
assistance can be fulfilled. The target is to help the working group
to figure out the architecture of overlay control plane, instead of
providing solutions.
