1. Tunnelling over the very same protocol; e.g., IP-over-IP
I think there are operational reasons why might want to do this.
Building an architecture based on this is probably flawed though.
IP-over-IP may be a confusing way to say what you get, which is
more like:
"IP++ over IP"
IP++ gives you more than the base IP:
- topology abstraction
- isolating a set of addresses or services
- emulation
I.e., VMware will be complete only when we can run VMware inside a
VMware partition. The same is true for networks, which is why IP-
over-IP
is the most meaningful virtualization of all, IMO.
Yes, but those are operational reasons. Not architectural. At least
to me.
