NVO3 Encapsulation Considerations
2017
As communicated by WG Chairs, the IETF NVO3 chairs and Routing Area
director have chartered a design team to take forward the
encapsulation discussion and see if there is potential to design a
common encapsulation that addresses the various technical concerns.
There are implications of different encapsulations in real
environments consisting of both software and hardware implementations
and spanning multiple data centers. For example, OAM functions such as
path MTU discovery become challenging with multiple encapsulations
along the data path. The design team recommend Geneve with few
modifications as the common encapsulation, more details are described
in section 7.
