Hi, Richard. Thank you for your comments. I put some inlines as follows. Looking forward to have more discussion with you.

I liked your evaluation on the impacts of NFV on ALTO. Here are a few comments. My reading of your draft is that the main impacts will be information flow from NFV-MANO to the ALTO server; that is, NFV provides information to ALTO server. The provisioning of ALTO servers is left as implementation details so far, and I feel that we are coming to a point where more discussions can be helpful. Your draft serves a great starting point. What is the mechanism that you envision this information flow happens: (a) NFV writes (pushes) into an internal (proprietary) data structure of ALTO server; (b) NFV writes (pushes) into ALTO server using a standard (e.g., YANG comes to mind); and/or (c) ALTO server pulls from NFV. From Section 6, you appear to be suggesting that the ALTO server "subscribes" to NFV info updates (e.g., the sentence "Such capability should be noticed...") Is there such a standard interface in NFV? [fq] The north bound interface NFV now support could be Restful API. Therefore, I suppose YANG models can be used for the interface between NFV MANO and ALTO server. In such scenario, the ALTO server is acting as an app for the NFV MANO to constantly pull info from it. I am wondering the other direction of interaction. What information ALTO may provide to NFV-MANO. The main goal of ALTO is to provide as simple as possible network information for clients to utilize. What information will NFV need that ALTO may provide? [fq] One thing I can think of is in the sfc usecase. In the SFC, the SFF should choose a suitable SF to forward the packet flow. Such choice should based on the bandwidth, the distance, and etc. of the SFs. Therefore, in this case the SFF may need to ask ALTO server for the network info of different SFs. In this scenario, the SFF acts as ALTO client, and SFs are the hosts. Your draft appears to suggest one more dimension of interaction: "ALTO server...even should be able to inform the NFV MANO to scale up certain service at a proper point." This is interesting but will imply more substantial extensions, right? [fq] Yes. Such interaction will require more extension for ALTO. I don’t know if this is possible in ALTO now? What’s your comments? Richard On Wed, Mar 11, 2015 at 6:20 AM, Qiao Fu <[email protected]> wrote: Hi, Lingli. Thank you for the comments. A usecase I can think of within the DC is the sfc (service function chaining). In the sfc, there is a sff (service function forwarder) responsible for forwarding certain flow to the specific sf (service function). When the flow finished in the sf, it will get back to the sff and will be directed to the next sf on the sfp (service function path). Therefore, the sff may need information to know which sf is located at which rack so that it can optimize the sfp and reduce latency between the sf and itself. I think a wise choice is for the sff to ask auto server for this info. In such usecase, rack ID or even server ID is important information for the sff. I don't know if this scenario makes sense to you? Thank you and looking forward to your feedback:) -----邮件原件----- 发件人: 邓灵莉/Lingli Deng [mailto:[email protected]] 发送时间: 2015年3月9日 11:14 收件人: 'Qiao Fu'; [email protected] 抄送: [email protected]; 'Songhaibin (A)' 主题: RE: New Version Notification for draft-fu-alto-nfv-usecase-04.txt Hi Qiao, Thanks for the interesting discussion around endpoint property for VNFs. In terms of VNF migration and its impact on endpoint geo-location property design, I see there are two potential cases: inter-DC migration and intra-DC migration. As you can see from the current design for endpoint geo-location property, the intra-DC migration might not be reflected by the current design unless we introduce something like server-id or rack-id? But such information is too low-level I suspect and maybe considered sensitive or lose its practical meaning once the ALTO client is located outside the DC domain in question. While within the DC, who would be the ALTO client for such information?
