That I disagree with because HTTP, SIP, SMTP, SOAP, SNMP are all L7 protocols. I wonder how many people call that networking .. but in a way they are Internet. Certain things like SNMP go beyond networks. SOAP goes even beyond infrastructure. SMTP is totally application, and so is SIP and HTTP.

 

Did you see the drafts yet? The requirement draft has a section  “Is Cloud Control an Internet Problem?”. The intent of that section is to describe why IETF is the place to do this work.

 

Thanks, Ashish

This isn’t just about the network resources and SOP isn’t only about provisioning network resources. The protocol definition is generalized to support any kind of service – network included.

In SDN, our focus is on networking. Further, we are trying to distance ourselves from the actual DC network fabric design (all vendor-specific so far).
