Abstract:
   Network slicing can be used to meet the connectivity and performance
   requirement of different services or customers in a shared network.
   An IETF network slice may be used for 5G or other network scenarios.
   In the context of 5G, the 5G end-to-end network slices consist of
   three major types of network segments: Radio Access Network (RAN),
   Transport Network (TN) and Core Network (CN).  And in the transport
   network, the IETF network slice may span multiple network domains.

   In order to facilitate the mapping between network slices in
   different network segments and network domains, it is beneficial to
   carry the identifiers of the 5G end-to-end network slice, the multi-
   domain IETF network slice together with the intra-domain network
   slice identifier in the data packet.

   This document describes the framework of end-to-end IETF network
   slicing, and introduces the identifiers for 5G end-to-end network
   slice and the multi-domain IETF network slice in the data packet.
   The roles of the different identifiers in packet forwarding is also
   described.  The network slice identifiers can be instantiated with
   different data planes.
