Ali,

Your draft-sajassi-bess-secure-evpn-00 defines two new Tunnel Types along with 
its associated sub-TLVs for The Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute [TUNNEL-ENCAP].

[Tunnel-Encap] cannot be effectively used for SD-WAN overlay network because a 
SD-WAN Tunnel needs to be established before data arrival. There is no routes 
to be associated with the SD-WAN Tunnel.

How do you address those issues?

Linda

Hi Linda,

I haven’t read your draft yet. I am traveling now but will plan to read your 
draft over next couple of days and respond to your questions.

Cheers,
Ali

Subject: [bess] Comparing using the SD-WAN Overlay SAFI specified by 
draft-dunbar-idr-bgp-sdwan-overlay-ext with the EVPN approach described by 
draft-sajassi-bess-secure-evpn-00

IDR group, BESS group,

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-dunbar-idr-bgp-sdwan-overlay-ext/ 
specifies a new BGP SAFI (=74) in order to advertise a SD-WAN edge node’s 
capabilities in establishing SD-WAN overlay tunnels with other SD-WAN nodes 
through third party untrusted networks.

draft-sajassi-bess-secure-evpn-00 describes an EVPN solution for PE nodes to 
exchange key and policy to create private pair-wise IPsec Security Associations 
without IKEv2 point-to-point signaling or any other direct peer-to-peer session 
establishment messages.

I think those two solutions are not conflicting with each other. Actually they 
are compliment to each other to some degree. For example,
-        the Re-key mechanism described by draft-sajassi-bess-secure-evpn-00 
can be utilized by draft-dunbar-idr-bgp-sdwan-overlay-ext
-        The SD-WAN Overlay SAFI can be useful to simplify the process on RR to 
re-distribute the Tunnel End properties to authorized peers.
-        When SD-WAN edge nodes use private address, or no IP address, NAT 
properties for the end points distribution described 
draft-dunbar-idr-bgp-sdwan-overlay-ext is necessary.
-        The secure channel between SD-WAN edge nodes and RR described by 
draft-dunbar-idr-bgp-sdwan-overlay-ext is necessary.

Any thoughts?

Thank you very much.

Linda Dunbar
