Split Network Virtualization Edge (Split-NVE) Control-Plane Requirements
暂无分享,去创建一个
In a Split Network Virtualization Edge (Split-NVE) architecture, the
functions of the NVE (Network Virtualization Edge) are split across a
server and an external network equipment which is called an external
NVE. The server-resident control plane functionality resides in
control software, which may be part of hypervisor or container
management software; for simplicity, this document refers to the
hypervisor as the location of this software. Control plane protocol(s)
between a hypervisor and its associated external NVE(s) are used by
the hypervisor to distribute its virtual machine networking state to
the external NVE(s) for further handling. This document illustrates
the functionality required by this type of control plane signaling
protocol and outlines the high level requirements. Virtual machine
states as well as state transitioning are summarized to help clarify
the protocol requirements.
