I'm not at all sure what it would mean for the VN itself (that is
NVO3) to provide "flow based forwarding service". What did you have in
mind? What benefits would that have?

In my mind, how traffic is forwarded by the underlay network is
entirely the business of the underlay. Flow based forwarding would be
fine, if desirable. But, that would be completely orthogonal to NVO3
and the virtual network itself. I don't see right off the need for
NVO3 itself to be involved in this.
