BGP Usage for SDWAN Overlay Networks
draft-dunbar-bess-bgp-sdwan-usage-01
Abstract
The document describes three distinct SDWAN scenarios and discusses
the applicability of BGP for each of those scenarios. The goal of
the document is to make it easier for future SDWAN control plane
protocols discussion.
SDWAN edge nodes are commonly interconnected by multiple underlay
networks that are owned and managed by different network providers.
A BGP-based control plane is chosen for handling large number of
SDWAN edge nodes with little manual intervention.
