I don’t support the adoption of this draft as a WG. There is a major flaw in this proposal: Basically the encapsulation of VXLAN/NVGRE is incompatible with MPLS IP-VPNs. VXLAN/NVGRE contains a MAC address and IP-VPNs don’t. The draft does not talk about any of this and introduces a lot of complexity for nothing.
If we want to describe a model C VPN interconnect with a IP fabric in a DC I recommend to do an informational RFC that describes this using VXLAN-GPE, MPLSoGRE or MPLSoUDP encapsulation and retain the E2E MPLS label we defined in RFC4364.
