Abstract:
Forwarding and Control Element Separation (ForCES) defines an
architectural framework and associated protocols to standardize
information exchange between the control plane and the forwarding
plane in a ForCES Network Element (ForCES NE). RFC5812 has defined
the ForCES Model which provides a formal way to represent the
capabilities, state, and configuration of forwarding elements(FEs)
within the context of the ForCES protocol. More specifically, the
model describes the logical functions that are present in an FE, what
capabilities these functions support, and how these functions are or
can be interconnected. The control elements (CEs) can control the
FEs using the ForCES model definition.
The ForCES WG charter has been extended to allow the LFB topology to
be across FEs. This documents describes a non-intrusive way to
extend the LFB topology across FEs.
