Larry, Please see my comments inserted below:
LK> I'm pretty sure this is covered in the architecture document, but we could do some repeating here. Regarding "each holding the mapping information for a subset of VNs", part, this gets into federation of NVAs. I think we can leave that part in the architecture document since it will probably open more questions, than provide answers. Also, it is not relevant to the NVA to NVE protocol since a single NVE only uses a single NVA. [Linda] “a single NVE only uses a single NVA”? What if the NVE is disconnected from its “only” NVA? Or its only “NVA” has failure or is going through software restart? For the distributed case, each NVA only has mapping for a subset of VNs. It is very possible that the VNs being participated by one NVE are carried by multiple NVAs Linda
