  *   4.2: The two ways of TS address discovery is for MAC address discovery? 
IP address discovery or both? Do we allow the VM to inform the NVE directly at 
VN address association? Can we cover it in the text as well?

LK> Our goal is the make the implementation of the VN completely hidden from 
the TS (VM).  There should be no requirement to modify the TS to participate in 
address advertisement.  There is also an issue of trust, we should try to avoid 
trusting a TS to advertise its address.

<PAT> Larry, I agree, but the NVO3 Security draft which has the following in 
5.1 isn't consistent with this:

"Apart from data traffics, the NVE and the TSes also
  need to exchange signaling messages in order to facilitate, e.g., VM
   online detection, VM migration detection, or auto-provisioning/
   service discovery [I-D.ietf-nvo3-framework]."
The messages for these purposes should be between the NVE and the hypervisor, 
not the NVE and the TS.

Have a nice day
