As I understand NVO3 (and GENEVE), it is an encapsulation layer that runs on
top of UDP layers and can carry ethernet packets.  (I've deployed a few of
these things)

But, in this context, I'm unclear if the UCL-ACL would apply to the outer
IP/UDP header or to the inner one.

If there were reasons to apply rules to the inner one, wouldn't it make more
sense to have a PEP at the NVO3 encapsulation point?
If it would make sense to apply rules to the outer one, would it be easier to
just have more than one tunnel?
