Abstract:
   Deployment experience has demonstrated the value of using the
   Forwarding and Control Element Separation (ForCES) protocol to
   control the Forwarding Element Manager (FEM) by creating a Logical
   Functional Block (LFB) to represent its functionality, the FE
   Configuration (FEC) LFB . A Control Element (CE) that controls a
   Forwarding Element's (FE) resources can also manage its configuration
   via the FEC LFB.  On a running FE, the CE may update the FE's runtime
   configuration via an FEC LFB e.g., by adding a new CE and its
   associated IP address).  Additionally, in the case where we have a
   resource pool of FEs, the FEC may be used to initiate an FE into the
   Network Element cluster.  This document introduces the FEC LFB, an
   LFB that specifies the configuration parameters of an FE.
