Andy,

The difference is that the RFC 3209 control plane overhead is per-network where here it is per-VPN and the per-VPN overhead appears to be arbitrarily large.

Thanks,

John

John,

Does RFC 3209 have any guidance on how many RSVP-TE sessions you can run simultaneously in a network, or a node? It's obviously both implementation and deployment dependent. Why is this draft any different?

Cheers,
Andy

Hi John,

This draft does not suggest to allocate network resources to each individual VPN, only the VPNs which require particular level of SLA need to be integrated with underlay network resources, thus the number of enhanced VPN would be much less than the number of traditional overlay VPNs. Also it is possible that several VPNs with similar characteristics could be assigned with a set of aggregated resources,  and would share the same logical network.

[JD]  I don’t recall any such discussion in the draft.  Further, what is the maximum # of VPN+ instances supported in a given network such that that network does not implode?

[Jie] Such discussion happened during the presentation on previous IETF meetings, the current draft doesn't mandate the mapping of each individual VPN to dedicated logical network with resources allocated.

JD. I am going to compile a list of statements
that the draft makes that would lead one to a
different conclusion

That said, we could add some clarification in future version. The number of enhanced VPNs would depend on the number of services and customers which have such level of SLA requirement.


JD  So, you have no guidance to offer?


Best regards,
Jie

Igor,

I am not convinced that network slicing is a good idea because it assumes that logical networks w/ vastly different characteristics can be built out of a set of common network resources.  I am convinced that allocating network resources on a per-VPN basis is a bad idea because of the scaling issues.

Yours Irrespectively,

John

Hi John,

Do you see any differences between a logical network and a network topology? Specifically, would you define network slices as produced by the same physical network sufficiently separated network topologies, each of which designed for specific class(es) of clients/overlays, with network resources available for the overlays limited by the resource pools allocated to the corresponding topologies? Another question: could network slices in your opinion be built hierarchically, i.e. higher level slices comprised of lower level ones?

Thanks,
Igor

Andy,

Network slicing is very different from what is described in this draft.  Network slicing envisions a small number of logical networks built using the same physical network, each of which is designed for a specific type of overlay network and a given VPN, depending upon its requirements, would be assigned to one or more of these network slices.  This draft, in contrast, is describing assignment of resources from the physical network to individual VPNs.

This is clearly absurd, and its characterization as a ‘scalable approach’ seems ill-considered.

This draft is also not a framework draft in any of the normally used definitions of that word (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/framework<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.merriam-2Dwebster.com_dictionary_framework&d=DwMGaQ&c=HAkYuh63rsuhr6Scbfh0UjBXeMK-ndb3voDTXcWzoCI&r=CRB2tJiQePk0cT-h5LGhEWH-s_xXXup3HzvBSMRj5VE&m=n9sCWh1x8RH083BAlFMqUZfK0blyu7AEqTYj5kopZ1I&s=o2aQfkCcHYaq6v8_OptqlhDqzYAgs1OiHS3JnOcuXtY&e=>).  Rather, I would characterize it as a set of semi-random musings.

Yours Irrespectively,

John

Yes/support. This is a scalable approach for network slicing and enhanced VPNs that builds on a body of existing work.
