Policies that apply to VMs MUST NOT change. The text I proposed
above makes it clear.
Policies that apply to L2 physical domain may, or may not change.
But what is important is that such policies should not preclude
implementing policies that apply to VMs. With this in mind how about the
following variation on the above (the only change is the new penultimate
sentence):
Moving VM from one L2 physical domain to another means
(among other things) that the NVE in the new domain that
provides connectivity between this VM and VMs in other L2
physical domains must be able to implement the policies
that control connectivity between this VM and VMs in other
L2 physical domains. In other words, the policies that
control connectivity between a given VM and its peers
MUST NOT change as the VM moves from one L2 physical domain
to another. Moreover, policies, if any, within the L2
physical domain that contain a given VM MUST NOT preclude
realization of the policies that control connectivity between
this VM and its peers. All of the above is irrespective of
whether the L2 physical domains are trivial or not.
