The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Framework for DC Network Virtualization' (draft-ietf-nvo3-framework-09.txt) as Informational RFC This document is the product of the Network Virtualization Overlays Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Alia Atlas and Adrian Farrel. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-nvo3-framework/ Technical Summary This document provides a framework for Network Virtualization over L3 (NVO3) and it defines a reference model along with logical components required to design a solution. Working Group Summary The document is one of the base documents chartered for the NVO3 working group. The first version of the draft was introduced at the time of the WG forming BoF for NVO3, as a way to provide network architecture context to the design of a multi-tenant data centre, for example in defining the terminology and functional blocks that are required. There has been nothing unusual or particularly controversial about the working group process for the draft. There are no IPR declarations on the draft. Document Quality I have no concerns about the quality of the document. I believe it represents WG consensus, and it has been widely reviewed and discussed on the list since formation of the NVO3 working group. The document does not specify any MIB changes or additions which would need review. Personnel The document shepherd is Matthew Bocci (matthew.bocci@alcatel-lucent.com).
