Abstract:
   Forwarding and Control Element Separation (ForCES) defines an
   architectural framework and associated protocols to standardize
   information exchange between the control plane and the forwarding
   plane in a ForCES Network Element (ForCES NE).  RFC5812 has defined
   the ForCES Model provides a formal way to represent the capabilities,
   state, and configuration of forwarding elements within the context of
   the ForCES protocol (RFC 5810), so that Control Elements (CEs) can
   control the Forwarding Elements (FEs) accordingly.  More
   specifically, the model describes the logical functions that are
   present in an FE, what capabilities these functions support, and how
   these functions are or can be interconnected.

   Many network devices support parallel packet processing.  This
   document describes how ForCES can model a network device's
   parallelization datapath.
