Re: [Apn] The official instructions on the next step of APN

Hi Shuping

I agree that APN has critical applicability for operators for 5G, DETNET
and even any public or private multicast MVPN streaming video content so
does have quite extensive applicability for operators.
There also maybe private SR  use cases for special SLA application flows
value added service.

As for productive discussions to move the ball forward with APN BOF, I do
agree with having discussions where network operators can share their
experiences and how APN can benefit so in that light as you stated IntArea
and RTGWG are a good start.
GROW maybe useful for in the global internet routing context and how APN
can play a role.

I think DETNET would be good for applicability statement,  and Spring, 6MAN
and TEAS maybe good from a APN architecture and design framework as APN
leverages IPv6 data plane EH headers and utilizes traffic steering SRv6
forwarding plane and also gets into 5G network slicing so then TEAS comes
into play and NS network slicing architecture.

I would be happy to present APN architecture and applicability at IETF 110.

Kind Regards

Gyan
