Well, there are 2 separate problems above. Each involves different state, and possibly different challenges. It would be useful to ask specifically for these two scenaros, whether there is a compelling need to migrate such state. I.e., who needs a solution to this problem? Which data center operator? Which customer? Or is this just a theoretical problem for which if there was a solution, it *might* get used? > Currently we are try to narrow down the scope: e.g. do we consider > state migration within a L2 subnet, or also consider state migration > between L2 subnets. We will also figure our the state that is > essential to service continuity after VM Migration. IMO, this is the less interesting question regarding scope. The first question is whether there is a compelling case to move state at all. If so, for which devices? And what do the vendors for those devices say? If the vendors that own the market for firewalls, load-balancer, <you name it but they have network state> are not interested in a solution as is being discussed here, what is the likelyhood that any solution (if it was developed) would ever be used? IMO, we should start by first talking about specific scenarios, where migrating state is necessary, and why the lack of a solution today is a problem that the IETF needs to develop solutions for.
