	Title           : IP-based VLAN switching for Network Services Virtualization

The objective of this document is to define and formalize the use of
IP-based VLAN switching in the context of virtualization of network
services. Networking infrastructure appliances may host multiple
virtual instances of network services. IP address inspection on a
packet coming from an external network such as the Internet can be
used to switch the packet into a VLAN, through use of VLAN tags on
Ethernet frames. The tagged frame is subsequently fed to a VLAN-aware
networking infrastructure appliance where the packet is directed to a
virtualized service instance. This method of IP-based VLAN switching
on a packet assists in hosting multiple virtual instances of network
services on servers and other appliances.
