Is there any plan to include that in the draft. The current version only considers Layer2 overlay. Layer3 overlay may be considered in future versions. <Saumya> And that may require, a new TLV definition, as the existing one "MAC-Reachability (MAC-RI) TLV” may not suffice. Just thinking aloud if that can be considered as a complete solution provided by any NVO3 construct/encapsulation. [Xiaohu] No need for a new TLV definition. The existing Extended IP Reachability TLVs can be reused for layer3 overlay routing exchange purpose. <Saumya>In case no new definitions are required, then l3-gateway can also be accommodated. >>>>(only a single protocol to be deployed that's IS-IS) Does it refers to single protocol in overlay and underlay ? I think its highly subjective to the exact requirements. IS-IS has been widely used in campus networks for many years. Layer2 overlay control plane could be realized through a tiny extension to IS-IS (i.e., the VN membership auto-discovery based upon a single sub-TLV). Note that the control-plane based MAC learning is optional rather than mandatory. <Saumya> As I understand, the distribution of Overlay information (VN-memebership), will be tightly coupled with the underlay network tied up to same instance of ISIS and can end up populating non-NVO3 devices in the ISIS network. [Xiaohu] Your observation is correct that VN-membership info would be received by non-NVE devices. However, according to the ISIS specification, IS-IS routers would ignore unknown TLVs in the LSP and pass them on to other neighbors unchanged. Therefore, non-NVE routers don't need processing the VN membership info TLVs at all. Therefore, from the incremental deployment perspective, only those NVE devices need to be upgraded. <Saumya> If you go by the encapsulations discussed in nvo3, is there an extension sought to map vni to lets say draft-ietf-nvo3-gue-03. Best regards, Xiaohu Thanks Saumya.

Although BGP or Software Defined Network (SDN) controller could still be used as the control plane protocol in campus networks, both of them seem a bit heavyweight, especially for small and even medium sized campus networks. This draft proposes to use IS-IS as a lightweight control plane protocol for NVo3 overlay networks. In this way, the network provisioning is dramatically simplified (only a single protocol to be deployed that's IS-IS), which is much significant to campus network operators. BTW, it leverages the MAC-Reachability (MAC-RI) TLV as defined in RFC6165 to realize on-demand control-plane based MAC learning on a per-VN basis, most importantly, without any dependence on the multicast capability of the underlay networks. Any comments are welcome.

This light-weight control plane protocol is intended for small and even medium sized enterprise campus networks where the NVo3 technology is to be used.
