[Rafa] The argument is the NSF will need this TLS/SSH session with the 
controller regardless IPsec management. It will need it for routing management, 
IDS, firewall, management etc… Since that TLS/SSH is already there (regardless 
IPsec management) we can leverage this. Also the implementation of the NETCONF 
server is required no matter if we have IPsec management. Therefore if you have 
case 1 vs case 2 , case 1 still needs the NETCONF server in addition to IKE 
implementation, case 2 does not. Therefore, as you mention makes the NSF 
simpler, no doubt.
