Abstract:
This draft describes distributed flow-mapping applied according to
RFC 6830 Locator ID Separation Protocol (LISP) for dynamic scaling of
virtualized network functions (NFV) . Network functions such as
subscriber management-mobility-security-quality, are typically
delivered using proprietary appliances topologically embedded into
the network as service-nodes or service-blades. Next generation
virtualized network functions are pure software instances running on
standard servers - unbundled building blocks of processing capacity
and modular functionality. LISP based flow-mapping dynamically wires
VNF instances into the data-path, and scales virtualized functions by
steering the right traffic in the right sequence to the right
process.
