Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2014-12-08. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead.

This document contains a normative Downref to RFC 1027 Abstract This document describes a solution in which the control plane protocol specified in BGP/MPLS IP VPNs is used to provide a Virtual Network service to end-systems. These end-systems may be used to provide network services or may directly host end-to-end applications. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-l3vpn-end-system/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-l3vpn-end-system/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
