  1. Virtual Network Auto-Provisioning Requirements draft-gu-nvo3-auto-provisioning-reqs-00 ZhongyuGu, Ting Ao, Qian Sun, Vic Liu

  2. Purpose Outline the high level requirements for virtual networks automatic provisioning in NVO3.

  3. Typical VN Provisioning Procedures • VN requirements collection • Deploy • Mapping • Delivering/Configuration command • Execution • Running • Reporting

  4. Management Initiated VN Auto-Provisioning: Description • VN requirements collection • Deploying • Mapping • Delivering/Configuration command • Create VM • Configure VM(’s vNIC) • Configure NVE • Optional, other configurations • Execution • Running • Reporting

  5. Management Initiated VN Auto-Provisioning: Requirements • Req-1: Standard NVA-NVE/GW management interfaces, includes interface protocol and related parameters • Req-2: Standard NVA-Hypervisor/VM Orchestration System management interfaces, includes interface protocol and related parameters • Req-3: Optional, automatic routing protocol configuration • Detailed information, TBD

  6. VM Initiated VN Auto-Provisioning: Description • VN requirements collection • Deploying • Mapping • Delivering/Configuration commands • Create VM • VM auto-discover NVE • VM auto-join NVE • VM auto-configuration • NVE auto-configuration (triggered by VM) • Create VRF; and/or Add New Entry; or do nothing • Optional, other configurations • Execution • Running • Reporting VM-NVE Protocol, NVE-NVA supp. NVE-NVA

  7. VM Initiated VN Auto-Provisioning: Requirements • Req-1: NVE auto-discovery protocol, be used to discover NVE automatically and further automatic join NVE and trigger NVE to auto-configure the related VN • Req-2: NVE auto-discovery protocol support and efficiently deliver the related parameters, include MAC address, IP address, VN-ID, Session-ID, etc. • Req-3: VM authentication to VN by using the existing protocols such as EAP or IEEE802.1x, etc • Req-4: NVE supports automatic execution of create VRF command and configuration • Req-5: Optional, automatic routing protocol configuration • Detailed information, TBD

  8. Conclusion • Management Initiated(/Administrator configuration/operation simulation) VN Auto-Provisioning mechanism needs lots of standardization works. • VM Initiated VN Auto-Provisioning mechanism by defining a new light-weighted VM-NVE protocol to show the possibility to realize VN auto-provisioning.

  9. Next Step… • Comments collecting and further discussions • Detailed requirements, esp. for NVE and NVE-NVA etc. • ……
