Abstract:

   The IETF Network Virtualization Overlays (NVO3) Working Group
   developed considerations for a common encapsulation that addresses
   various network virtualization overlay technical concerns.  This
   document provides a record, for the benefit of the IETF community, of
   the considerations arrived at starting from the output of an NVO3
   encapsulation design team.  These considerations may be helpful with
   future deliberations by working groups over the choice of
   encapsulation formats.

   There are implications of having different encapsulations in real
   environments consisting of both software and hardware implementations
   and within and spanning multiple data centers.  For example, OAM
   functions such as path MTU discovery become challenging with multiple
   encapsulations along the data path.

   Based on these considerations, the Working Group determined that
   Geneve with a few modifications as the common encapsulation.  This
   document provides more details, particularly in Section 7.
