Hi All, 

The SFC charter items (specifically 4 & 5) are:

4. Control Plane Mechanisms: A document will be developed to describe requirements for conveying information between control or management    elements and SFC implementation points. All protocol extension work resulting from these requirements should be carried out in the working group responsible for the protocol being modified in coordination with this working group, but may be done in this working group under a revised charter after agreement with all the relevant WG chairs and responsible ADs.

5. Manageability: Work on the management and configuration of SFC components related to the support of Service Function Chaining will certainly be needed, but first needs to be better understood and scoped.

Hi,

The IESG is looking at the BoF requests for London, and a question came up on the overlap between the proposal here and items 4 and 5 in the SFC Charter.

I think it would be valuable if you could discuss the overlap and the interaction between the two efforts so that there is a clear view.

Thanks,
Adrian
