[Teas] Update and Request to Adopt draft-dong-teas-enhanced-vpn

["Dongjie (Jimmy)" <[e-mail]>]

Hi all, 

A new revision of draft-dong-teas-enhanced-vpn is submitted to solve the comments received recently. 

This document specifies a framework for using existing, modified and potential new networking technologies as components to provide an enhanced VPN (VPN+) service. The major changes in this version are: 

  1) In Introduction section, add references to network slicing related works in the industry. 

  2) In section 2, update the description of the isolation requirement.

  3) In section 4 “Candidate Technologies”, reduce the introduction about segment routing.

  4) In section 4 “Candidate Technologies”, update the control plane subsection and add a new sub-section for management plane

  5) Add references to the candidate technologies.

  6) Editorial changes to improve the readability.

This document was initially submitted in last year as draft-bryant-rtgwg-enhanced-vpn, and was presented and discussed several times in RTGWG. According to the consensus between the chairs of RTGWG and TEAS, this draft was moved to TEAS WG, and presented in TEAS on IETF 102. 

Currently there are several enhanced VPN related drafts:

  draft-dong-spring-sr-for-enhanced-vpn, which describes the Segment Routing based mechanism for enabling enhanced VPN services.

  draft-dong-lsr-sr-enhanced-vpn, which specifies the IGP extensions needed for SR based enhanced VPN.

  draft-lee-rtgwg-actn-applicability-enhanced-vpn, which describes the applicability of ACTN to enhanced VPN.

This framework document plays an important role as it builds the foundation for the above documents. 

After several rounds of update, the content of this document is getting stable, the co-authors believe it is ready for the WG to adopt it, and would like to solicit to initiate the adoption poll on this document.

Best regards,
Jie (on behalf of coauthors)

Abstract:
   This document specifies a framework for using existing, modified and
   potential new networking technologies as components to provide an
   enhanced VPN (VPN+) service.  The purpose is to enable virtual
   private networks (VPNs) to support the needs of new applications,
   particularly applications that are associated with 5G services.  A
   network enhanced with these properties can form the underpinning of
   network slicing, but will also be of use in its own right.
