Re: New Non-WG Mailing List: NetSlices - Network Slicing

[Alex Galis <[e-mail]>]

Hi Eliot

Thank you for your message and interest in Network Slicing.

Please find enclosed for your reference and as context to the Network Slicing the presentations slides from IETF 97  side meeting of 15th November 2016.
This meeting included approx 100 participants and 4 presentations on Network Slicing problem statement, 3 specific IETF drafts under progress and comments and discussion.

One of the action from this meeting that was based on unanimous interest on working on slicing at IETF was to consolidate all suggestions for problem areas and comments into an unified problem statement and work plan which would be the basis of a non-WG BoF at IETF 98 or IETF99.

Such a draft is ready and it contains more that 20 problems and a proposed approach to the definition of Network Slicing and related reference model.
It will be posted to the mailing list < [e-mail]> in the next few days for review and further contributions.
As such stay tune and if interested please subscribe to the mailing list <[e-mail] <mailto:[e-mail]>>

Thank you in advance 
Best Regards
Alex

The list also determines (and assimilates) which elements of the slicing problems are already covered by existing IETF designs or work in “ progress."
