Hi Folks, We have a new version of the Application Responsive Network (ARN), which specifies how an application can “invoke” the network service in data plane. ARN is running on an application or network edge, which is outside the trusted domain. After subscribing a network service, the user will have an ARN ID. The ARN ID works like the 'color' in data plane, and will map onto a specific SR Policy or slice eventually. Thus, implement the behavior of “invoke”. We also propose the IPv6 extension header in both DoH and HBH for ARN ID. We would say thanks to people giving us a lot of useful comments. Name: draft-yang-rtgwg-arn-framework Revision: 02 Title: Application-Responsive Network Framework Date: 2024-10-20 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 12 URL: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-yang-rtgwg-arn-framework-02.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-yang-rtgwg-arn-framework/ HTMLized: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-yang-rtgwg-arn-framework Diff: https://author-tools.ietf.org/iddiff?url2=draft-yang-rtgwg-arn-framework-02 Abstract: With the deployment of increasingly advanced technologies on a large scale, such as SRv6 and network slicing, there is a growing need to expose these new capabilities to applications. The current practice involves using ACLs to classify packets and then map the traffic onto appropriate network resources. This approach results in the application being passively perceived by the network, rather than the application actively interfacing with the network. Furthermore, changes in application characteristics necessitate triggering network configuration adjustments, making it challenging to deploy at scale. The document proposes a new framework called Application Responsive Network (ARN), by encapsulating more network functions into ARN ID, thus it opens up interfaces to applications. The vision is to enable applications to access network resources like they access an operating system. -- BR, Feng Yang （杨锋） |
