Is it correct to say that this proposes a mapping / encoding of "application" information into a common transport / infrastructure layer based on information from either the encapsulated / carried traffic and/or the originating domain? Kind of similar to how e.g. the classification and marking of the MPLS TC field on a PE, but now with a more wider use of the application information. I find the term application a bit confusing, in particular in the fixed broadband case the granularity in the example is rather coarse. Application suggests something more finegrained, at least to me. The use of VLAN for classification may not be generally available, if the access is based on a single VLAN a more complex classification is required anyway. All scenarios include some kind of tunneling in which the actual user carried. Is this the scope of this APN solution? I would expect application awareness would be relevant end-to-end, or at least within one domain. For example, in the fixed broadband case, what happens after the BNG? SD-WAN on the other hand is an "end-to-end" scenario,it may even span multiple operator domains. Also note that SD-WAN may make use of FBB or MBB as an access, possibly creating multiple layers of APN. The APN domain now is bounded by PEs (for FBB and MBB), wouldn't it be better to specify functional elements as the boundaries? Or do you consider the PE to be a functional element as well? In case of FBB the edge of an APN domain could be implemented in the same node as the OLT (or BNG on the other side) or even the CPE. cheers, Eduard On Wed, Jun 16, 2021 at 5:01 AM Pengshuping (Peng Shuping) < pengshuping@huawei.com> wrote: > Hi David, > > > > I think the network scenarios in Robin’s mind are something like the > diagrams below. > > > > MBB: > > gNB -- PE1 ----- (SRv6) tunnel ---- PE2 -- UPF > > > > FBB: > > RG -- PE1 ----- (SRv6) tunnel ---- PE2 -- BNG > > > > In the MBB, “The QFI is carried in an encapsulation header on N3 (and N9)” > – TS23.501.
