As a contributor, I support adoption of this work.  I have previously read and 
commented on this document.  The main reason for my comment this time is to 
address something that was brought up at the mic in 117.  There was a question 
asked about needing deep packet inspection to effectively implement this.  
Quifang said yes, but I don't think it would be necessary.  If the controller 
maintained the state and knew who the user was through other means (e.g., 
AAA/dot1x), it could program the network elements with standard ACL tuple data 
(i.e., traditional ACLs) dynamically, thus not putting more logic onto the 
devices or into the hardware.  This was similar to a past comment of mine, and 
I think the document text addresses this.

It's not to say an implementor couldn't do something fancier within the 
network, but I don't think additional capabilities are required to make this 
work.
