Abstract:
Deployment experience has demonstrated the value of using the
Forwarding and Control Element Separation (ForCES) protocol to
control the Forwarding Element Manager (FEM) by creating a Logical
Functional Block (LFB) to represent its functionality, the FE
Configuration (FEC) LFB . A Control Element (CE) that controls a
Forwarding Element's (FE) resources can also manage its configuration
via the FEC LFB. On a running FE, the CE may update the FE's runtime
configuration via an FEC LFB e.g., by adding a new CE and its
associated IP address). Additionally, in the case where we have a
resource pool of FEs, the FEC may be used to initiate an FE into the
Network Element cluster. This document introduces the FEC LFB, an
LFB that specifies the configuration parameters of an FE.
