This document presents a high-level overview architecture for
building data-center Network Virtualization over Layer 3 (NVO3)
networks. The architecture is given at a high level, showing the
major components of an overall system. An important goal is to
divide the space into individual smaller components that can be
implemented independently with clear inter-component interfaces and
interactions. It should be possible to build and implement
individual components in isolation and have them interoperate with
other independently implemented components. That way, implementers
have flexibility in implementing individual components and can
optimize and innovate within their respective components without
requiring changes to other components.
This document is a product of the Network Virtualization Overlays Working Group of the IETF.
