 Okay next speaker is Danny from Intel. Thank you. Thank you. So my name is Danny from Intel now platform groups on the data center group. My colleague Yiyang who cannot join for personal reason so I will be present his portion on behalf of him. And my talk is today is to be the high-perform NSH based server function solution with FIDO and open-delight. So it's not just an Intel effort it's a group effort so I want to thank you the home dream and Kisburn those are two major contributors to FIDO NSH SFC project and also Brad Johnson who is the SFC at open-delight and SFC at OpenWave project as a as a PTL and Anna who is from Intel there's lots of you know automation testing in FIDO community. Okay so it's agenda today basically I'm going to cover three main topics the first is about server-financing overview and then I will spend lots of time to introduce FIDO NSH SFC plug-in project and I will cover the internal architecture as well as the features as well as the performance and the some performance analysis. Then I will introduce the functional and the performance test we enable NSH SFC to work with the CSI-T inframing in FIDO and the last topic is about the open-delight SFC to integrate with the VPP and NSH SFC to ensure the country plane can work with the data plane and the last item is the summary. So this page actually introduce the third-party chain so what is third-party chain? Third-party chain basically is to stitch different level service in a particular order. So let's take a look at this diagram if you have three client 1, 2, 3, 4 to talk to a server basically if you have the classification or third-party chain policy you can force the different flows go through traffic through different server functions in a particular order. So here in data plane we have four different types of component the first one is the classifier which actually classify the incoming traffic and place the label SFC label on the packet and the based on the label once they classify for a packet to the server-financing folder server-financing folder can use the the information chain information at the label to determine what next hop will be so it could be a next next server-financing folder it could be a serve function. So in terms of that server-financing cap solution there are lots of different options so previously there are people who use VLAN, WixLan or GRE or MPLS as a third-party chain label or we call it third-party chain cap solution but now in IETF SFC working group the network service header is the choice to act as a next-generation third-party chain in cap solution. So for those legacy third functions as you can see here if it does not support a new third-party chain cap solution like NSH and you need a proxy here set between sorry set between the third-party folder and the third function so this guy actually manipulates the third-party chain in cap solution on behalf of a third function. So now in IETF the NSH is a divorce standard even though it is not a RFC at this point so basically NSH header is an additional header added before the original frame and it contains three different portion of the information the basic header which contains the version information and the learns the learns of this NSH header the empty type of information as well as the next protocol and the second portion is a server-passed and a service index those are used by third-party folder to determine the forward traffic to the third function or third-party next generation next hop third-party generation. So comparing to other third-party chain cap solution the NSH actually carry the metadata so this is the biggest difference of the NSH so if you have metadata say if the classifier can know the tenant information it would you know package the tenant information inside the metadata then when the packet goes to the third function the third function can use this metadata okay say you have you can place the subscriber information whatever DPI information into metadata then third function forwarder or third function does not need to re-classify the packet. So there are a couple of different SF use cases across telco and a data center network so from top to bottom I list the four common use case the first one is the GI line in mobile core network basically if you have EPC setup and the traffic from your devices need to go to the internet then the GI line is a point that need to perform lots of you know net of service applied to the original traffic so in the GI line use case there are a couple of different functions like here and it actually needs a lot of you know dynamic is there for example you want to change the order of a subring chain or you may want to add a new serve function to a serve function or you want to remove a serve function to a existing serve function so this kind of the kind of GI line use case is actually a dynamic server and for broadband network it is the same thing so for example if the BNG brought up network gateway terminated PPPO traffic and send the easy net traffic to the internet they also need to get goes through a server on chain and typically you would need to go through the DNS fire or load balancer those kind of service and for CPE especially cloud CPE and this use case people want to I mean the operator want to make the CPE to be there to speak to be as seen as possible then they can move those the complicated network service to the cloud environment where you need to the firewall ACL net those kind of typical serve function to build a server on chain before the traffic go to the internet and it and then in the data center is also need the internet gateway to ensure the traffic between internet and your servers to go through server on chain so basically if you look at those forest case server on chain is a gateway for different types of network no matter it's a wireless or data center network or fixed band network so what is the functionality of the SSSV plug-in internals so basically this is the typical packet format that SSFC manipulates the pink portion are typical layer 2 layer 3 layer 4 packet no matter it's the inner header or outer header and the green portion is a message header which is added before the your original frame but it's not a legal layer 2 frame so in order to ensure the typical network to be able to handle a packet you need to add a transport now in the NSH Draft in ITF there are three types of different transport VxLine GP, Ethernet and GRE so in our current information in FIDL it only uses VxLine GP as a real part as a transport to carry the NSH header so in the NSSFC plug-in as you can see we ensure the NSSFC can act as four different types of graph nodes which are NSC classifier to act as classifier proxy and the NSH input and the NSH aware of NSF so essentially the NSSFC plug-in just to manipulate two tables NSMAP table and NSH entry table the NSH entry table enables NSSFC can act as certified folder as well as classifier and for NSC MAP enables the NSSFC to act as NSWare of NS as well as proxy so the VxLine GP graph node actually co-work with the NSSFC plug-in to ensure a proper VxLine GP transport can be added before the NSH header so those two you know block here are legacy native VVP graph node which actually manipulates the layer 2 layer 3 layer 4 headers so let's take example for example if I want the NSSFC to act as classifier they already the frame comes in and the VVP graph node just do typical layer 2 layer 3 layer 4 packet processing and once it needs to send the packet to go through the server and change the packet sorry the packet actually go to the the go to the this month this sorry so it goes to the NSSFC which actually adds the NSH header before or before the original frame then forward to the VxLine GP graph node to add the VxLine GP header then transmit the wire so if you want this NSSFC to act as a certified folder basically the packet comes in which is a turnip pop turnip packet VxLine GP NSH turnip packet it actually does the outer header processing then VxLine GP graph will decapsulate the packet then the NSH header send to this product component to determine what the next hop will be once it's done it's sent to VxLine GP to do re-encapsulation and transmit to wire so it's in current NSSFC plugin basically four different types of data plane component are both supported classifier, certifying folder, proxy and NSC aware of NF so this is a typical use case of NSSFC and we just co-locate the NSSFC with the serve functions say in current VVP it supports different serve function like firewall like a net like load balancer so if you want place a VVP inside the container or inside a VM to enable it to act as a VNF or container of VNF you can definitely leverage VVP but if you want to chain those VNF or containerize the VNF as a server and chain you need to ensure those VNF are NSH aware so in order to do that we co-locate NSSFC which act as a which is configured as a proxy with the legacy serve functions so basically when the packet comes in the packet goes through the graph node in VVP you know the layer 2, layer 3, layer 4 and then go to the VXLine GP graph node to do decaps solution and the decapsule packet will be sent to NSSFC actually the strip off the NSG header so then it is re-circulated back to the original in that input graph node then this guy only processed in the packet so it follows the regular path to forward traffic to the net file will not advance those kind of network service and that's that to the real job so once pack that process those those net server graph node send back back to the NSSFC then it will add the original NSSFC header before the original frame then send to VXLine GP to add to VXLine GP header then transmit to wire so this way for those serve functions which are not NSSWare you can just enable them to be NSSWare by collocating the proxy and serve function together and going forward we are going to enable real NSSWare serve function which means we need those serve functions to be real NSSWare that means that for each packet when the VBP process is needed to add those per packet metadata especially NSSWare relevant metadata to the packet then this packet with the metadata sent to the serve function it can use the metadata for example it will classify as the sub-swapping information to the NSSH header and then once the NSSFC graph node pass that packet and the encapsulate that packet into the per packet metadata those serve function can use this metadata to enable them to actually do better job so NSSFC parking is is a active project in FIDL and I'm actually currently PTL as a project we have three recent recently from 1609 to 1701 to 1704 so 1609 we in the basic of serve function for the capability and and also thanks for VBP's parking framework we can easily you know parking the NSSFC parking into the VBP and enable the honeycomb to control them via the netconf interface and also we ensure ODL to work with this VBP and NSSFC I'm going to talk about the detail about integration between ODL SFC and the VBP based in a serve function data plane so in 1701 release we'll have to classify the proxy and also we'll add the integration test to the honeycomb to ODL so going forward for any additional feature you add it to the NSSFC parking it will be automatically tested with ODL so this way we can ensure a concentrated plan can work together and the in recent 1704 release which as I mentioned we collocate the proxy and the serve function together especially we enable the SNAT which is set for state-of-the-net to ensure the SNAT you know component in VBP can be used in a container or in a VM to act as an NSH aware of an F so we also enable the MG type 2 support because as I mentioned the NSH actually support two different type of metadata metadata type of one it's a fixed size metadata and MG type 2 is a variable size metadata you can use a TLV type length value to describe your metadata and I'll also enable IOM over SH and ensure the NSSFC integrated to the CSAT automation test of work framework in the FIDLE and we are working on 1701 release basically we instead of supporting the VXLINE GP as the only transport of NSH we're going to enable other transport like the Ethernet I'm going to talk about why we need it in the following slide and the GNAV which is the AETF you know official next generation tunneling protocol and some performance optimization and the integration work will be done in this release okay so performance so when we talk about the enabling features for NSSFC people will ask go okay what kind of performance you can achieve within VBP and in how do you compare the performance with the with the internal stack so we did a perform testing so this is the basic test you know type of topology for a prototype we have two devices one is the traffic generator and a server which actually runs the VBP and with the NSSFC so the two traffic the traffic from the traffic sender to from port A to port A on the on the DOT and it look back packed to the traffic generator and another port I'll just send back to also to the DOT to look back to the traffic so we can measure aggregate performance to see if we use one core or multi-core what kind of performance we can achieve so this is hardware configuration basically we use a throw well CPU it runs at the 2.2 gig hertz and the 10 gig network NICCAC is used for for software is TPTK version is the 1611 and VBP and SSFC and the Honeycomb are actually 1701 release so in terms of BIOS configuration basically it's just a regular configuration but we turn on the sorry for that I turn on the inter space bed and table boost to ensure when the VBP and the DbK runs promo driver on scene the promo the the highest frequency can be leveraged okay so this page actually is pretty busy the two charts on the top are classified as a certified forward performance and the two chart below as the proxy inbound and the proxy outbound perhaps we use the different pack size ranging from 7.2 bytes sumo pack to the 1k and and the jumbo frame as well as the I makes profiles so as you can see here we run two different type of test once I've see two five four four another is just 100 TX and obviously for this 100 TX what's that for this 102 ATX it actually has a factor loss so for obviously two four two five four four actually has no problem so as you can see here for small packet basically we can achieve about five gig bit per second throughput and but for a big packet so we have a 512 or a 1k it can achieve a 10 line rate okay so we also do some performance scaling test say for one core it can only achieve five gig how about two core three core that is the scale linearly as you can see here if we use two cores the performance at almost doubled in comparison to the you know one core performance and we actually test the different in the functionality classify inbound outbound proxy certified forwarder using different packet so you may ask why we don't use the 64 or 6 7 2 4 proxy or certifying for the the main reason is that the NSH and the baseline GP those kind of tunneling headers as additional in the headers before NSH so the pack size increased okay and so but if you look into the performance report in C set your board you will see for basic layer 2 forward traffic layer 2 kind of a set up it had easily achieve close to 13 million million packet per second performance so why you you only shift remember roughly five five gig you know for example 4.5 million packet per second throughput so it this actually gives a lot of insight about the why the performance drops so this is the basic layer 2 cross-connect configuration as you can see here basically the traffic generated send the traffic to DUT1 and DUT1 actually just like like a difficult layer to forward it received packet from a physical port and the instead of bypassing instead of in goes through the VBP graph note it just transmit back to to another DUT where the another take a port so actually can has a best performance so reusing this the layer 2 cross-connect configuration we have a layer 2 XZ cross-connect mix line test which actually configure this DUT to do DUT1 to do it mix line incap solution and this guy do the decap solution so if 64 byte packet comes in it's going to do incap solution and this guy do incap solution and loop back the 64 byte back to this traffic generated as you can see here performance drops from 12.7 to 6.5 because mix line GP incap solution drops performance as as you have to first do a basic you know look copy in the table and also you need the memory copy to copy unless the mix line GP header and outer layer to layer 3 layer 4 header before the original packet it's actually CPU cycles and memory bandwidth and also we did IP5 IP4 mix line testing it also dropped from 6.5 to 4 5.5 you know roughly so it actually at the additional work here to do packet you know table look up because if you want to forward you need to find out which port will be used to forward traffic so you need at least one hash operation to match the to first you need to pass the packet and do a look copy in your foreign table to determine which port will be the next port to transmit packet and for certified folder actually instead of doing mix line GP incap solution it also need to do NSH manipulation specifically needed to look up the the the NSC map and NSH entry table in the NSH ASFC plugin to each to determine what the next hub will be so that also introduced overhead so as you can see performance jump drops from 5.5 to 4.5 and then we also tried to collocate the short file forwarder so NSH ASG with the SNAT for SNAT basically can easily achieve 10g line rate for small packet 6.5 small packet but adding the those functionality here in cap solution decap solution actually drops to perform two three three a million packet per second okay so it's not this is not a app-to-app comparison as you can see different packet sites and maybe a different pack you know tunneling protocol some use of mix line GP some use of mix line some use of mix line along with NSH but actually give some you give you some insight that if you only have a one core and you need to do lots of job actually performs will be not as good as the basic layer 2 cross-connect performance and this is the end-to-end throughput of NSFC solution on single server so basically we have two setup the CV setup which stand for container may be P so basically the traffic generators send the traffic directly to a container and inside the container we just inside kind of just run the wrong VPP and it's configured to the layer 2 cross-connect mode so the pack comes in we're connecting PMD and directly forward to the packet to the VPP we are virtual user and the VHOS user pair so virtual user is a use is a user space emulation of a virtual on privatization device so it is purely in dbdk and it actually use leverage the huge page to as a share memory between the the VHOS user and the virtual user so it can comparing to see these pairs in container network that's a lot of performance for so then this and the CVC program actually add additional container here so so there will be one more traffic one more pack to move between the VPP and the container as you can see here we just the move packet from the container to VPP and the forward to the loop back that packet to the traffic generator very important and here we added the additional container so the VPP instead of forward traffic to the traffic traffic generator they will forward to very forward to another container where another VHOS the retail port so as you can see here for CV test and this VPP is confident as the layer 2 cross-connect mode and this VPP is confident as a layer 3 roti mode for 64 packets we can achieve a 5.4 you know million packet per second and if you use this setup because the additional packet move here it's not sure share memory it's a share memory based but in order to provide isolation support so it needs to add at least one memory copy from the host to container so I can see here it performed drop to 3.9 3.6 sorry and if you want to you configure the VPP here and VPP here to act as serve function or certifying folder and you can see you know packet per second drops to the 1.06 so we tried to allocate more cores for this pair but in current the testing we found that VHOS user actually does not scale that well because you know because there are some design issues here and the community in dbk and VPP community those two community are working on that issue so function and performs option test so in FIDO it has a CIS IT testing framework as you can hear traffic generator and the two DUTs and so it actually can set up the Wixlant terminal between the traffic generator and the DUT1 and also a Wixlant terminal between the DUT1 and DUT2 so there are a couple of different configuration first you need to configure the IP and routing and AFP tables in VPP basically you need to do is just join a CLI command to configure this guy to set for the IP address here and the two point-to-point of Wixlant terminal between the DUT1 DUT1 and the DUT1 Z and the traffic generator now so then you need to configure the NSH map and the entry tables inside the DUT1 to ensure it can act as either certifying for their proxy or a different component in the data plane so this has been integrated into the CIS IT framework and we are going to integrate that into the performs test from in CIS IT so going forward when people submit a patch to the NSH FC parking it will automatically run the perform test to ensure there is no performance integration introduced by that patch okay then we can use that to determine if that path is you know it's good enough so next one is about the open data SFC equation with VPP and NSH FC so NSH FC plus VPP provide the data plane support it has up to four different types of data plane component but how to ensure ODIS FC can work with them so basically as you can see here ODL SFC supports young model and the Northbound APIs which allows you to config the model the certifying for their serve function proxy and classifier so if you can use you can use the SFC GUI or risk conf to invoke the Northbound API provider server and provider and once those API invoked they the configuration data will be stored in the data store and the two monitors VPP classified and VPP render we added to the SFs ODIS FC are going to be notified once there is a data update in the data store so those two guys will invoke that kind of Southbound plugin to configure VPP based network devices so previously the ODIS FC only support OBS to act as certifying for the classifier now in order to ensure ODIS FC can control VPP based the server function chain data plane component we add those component and the follows the overall ODL SFC architecture by providing those two component okay in terms of the details of how it works we actually leverage the Hanuk Han and VPP's plugin framework basically you know we add those you know yellow box here unless SFC plugin which is a data plane component and because the VPP is written in Java any C and Hanuk Hanuk is written in Java so you need to sort a layer to translate the Java core to C core that is the responsibility of a JVP component and the JVP component here actually provides the Northbound APIs to the Hanuk Han and once the Hanuk Han invokes this API it will automatically invokes the six APIs defining an SFC plugin to ensure the SFC can configure the SFC map and SFC entry tables and on the top is the ODL's two component as I mentioned maybe renderer and the classifier so it actually came the VPP renderer actually mainly used to configure the VxLine GP port as well as bridge domain in the VPP in the native VPP and this VPP classifier is used to config the two tables inside the NSSFC so what just like how the ODSFC implemented the Hanuk Hanuk actually provide a data protocol component which actually write data to the two data stores here and once the data there is a data update in those two data stores the translation layer will be notified they will actually distribute the the course to either Hanuk Hanuk core or Hanuk Hanuk NSSFC plugin so that means it can configure either VPP, native code, native graph note or configure the NSSFC so this is a is a full stack so if people want to add additional plugins into VPP you can basically reuse lots of code here to add plugins into VPP and into Hanuk Hanuk okay so no matter you you want to use a network or GPP because the network GPP already supports the VPP by introducing a VPP renderer and the network is going to add the VPP under late-own so basically the framework here can be largely reused so so summary so first high-performance database function solution can be can be enabled by integrating a VPP and an open daylight currently in NSSFC on the VPP as we show in previous slide to support the different component we need to do per hop VPP and NSH decap solution followed by ring cap solution which actually gives performance because you need memory copy because you need to look up additional tables so we are trying to add the easy net as a transport before done as a header so this kind of travel can actually benefit the server-on-chain deployment in a pure on-line free environment say if you are you deploy a server-on-chain on a single server and are you know the server-on-chain are just a container or VAM so for that case for this kind of Ease of Wesh traffic you don't have to use you know have a way to fix the NGP as a transport the only the only choice from high-performance practice to use this kind of easy net as a transport to carry the NSH header so it actually improved a lot of performance and in coming 17 or several weeks we are going to add this support and also as I mentioned we also use the performance is not good enough to support a massive ease of Wesh traffic it need to be scalable you know more scalable I mean say if I can allocate more huge page or more cores to to steer traffic between the host switch like OBS or VPP to the container or VAM then the VHOS user performs will be a bottleneck and it need to be enhanced and also open the light SFC controls state control and the data plan mixed with the VPC and the DPC OBS the DPC OBS actually at this point it does not support NSH and we are working with community to ensure NSH will be supported there and and our current goal is to enable NSH support in OBS 2.8 in in July August timeframe and also container as a server-on-chain is also very important because you know if we want to enable the container container as you know server function in in talk environment container has a lot of benefit for example the boot up time is much shorter we got some roughly data for example in order to instantiate VAM it takes about roughly 12 second but if you start the container just take about 1.5 second so it's about 10 x difference so for some tech use case like like a EP CP use case you may want to instantiate a thousand of containers on a server and you may want to to just shut down them once they fit some job and for that case VAM does not work because you need to hypervisor which induce overhead and they also in order to instantiate VAM you need to start the you need to guest OS to boot up so that actually introduce a lot of overhead and and and and the you know long boot up time and also comparing to the VAM performance container does not have the roughly 5 or 80 percent overhead introduced by the hypervisor so container writes the server-on-chain solution in talk or environment environment will be very important going forward okay so but the but the in container as a financial chain there is no open stack and now the second support actually the content as the serve you know VNF but we want to enable use Kubernetes to enable Bellmight container run to ensure it has the best performance and also you know currently solution only has the ODL and the VBP together and and and and there is but there is no orchestration plan support like a resource operator like open stack is not there and and the SFC modeling like on app is not there on app currently does not support the complicated use case like a server-on-chain it only supported a simple use case so we are targeting to enable on app you know to support serve on chain orchestration basically some component like a server design and creation commodity to support serve function design you did it it's a graphic tool allows you to model a certain chain and it's supported Tosca and different 8c you know information model we have for for a graph for certain chain so this kind of thing need to be enabled in SDC and also master service operator and policy component need to support serve function orchestration because currently in the open stack also as a server-on-chain solution which is a networking SFC support port chaining and as I mentioned in previous slide there are different use case some use case may need a dynamic chain somewhere just the static chain so we need to define some placement we have placement or serve on chain placement policy to ensure the on the on the orchestration layer it could support both network SFC and ODL SFC. ODL SFC is relatively dynamic which allows you to change the order to add or remove serve function to exist in the front chain and also SDNC and APVC those two controlling on app actually are all ODL based so we need them to control the data plan come on like let's say where we have okay that's it thank you any question. App C is not a data controller. Okay so there's a lot of part industry going to service function chaining yeah so would you classify there's two areas one is the orchestrator world yeah which is more IT focused on what is the data world which is sort of in this controller data networking plane yeah arena is that basically it or there is there another. So now if for the ODL SFC basically the current classifier only supports five table based classification mainly because open flow only support layer two layer four so in order to enable ODL to control over a space classifier it only allows you to set up the basic ACL rules which is a five table basis but for VPP actually lots of fast variability say if you integrate DPI engine into the VPP and that DPI engine can do layer two layer four to layer seven package inspection then you can add easily at the at the control plane you know APIs in the old in the honeycomb to allows the control plane like ODL or onos to come to config the layer four to layer seven classification rules say if I say it's for media traffic go to this chain for FTP traffic go to that chain so but without the DPI engine in your classifier you cannot do that at this time so we are trying to say okay use ODL with VPP in comparison to ODL to control over a space to classify it actually has a lot of flexibility at the last at least to enable to enable the layer four to layer seven classification capability in the data plane. So in the previous talk we saw a couple different options for how to integrate VPP in with open daylight yeah and with honeycomb I'm just wondering how does the SFC integration fit into that is the SFC functionality in netvert also or is it possibly going into netvert or what are your plans there? That's a great question that actually that's a question that's a plans to always based data plan as well previously in ODL community so basically the group were based policy and netversed those two open ODL project only controls the main VPP native code native graph node and actually honeycomb already provide support there for example if you want to config VPP to act as a firewall to do ACL to QoS those kind of thing VPP already support there so you can use a legacy honeycomb nodes one API to do that kind of thing but if you want to control the NSH SFC plugin then the ODL SFC only invoke the let me show you this let's show you only invoke the API is provided by this guy honeycomb NC plugin okay so and there's some discussion in the ODL community in terms of that let's use the netvert or GPP to control the third function classifier for that case then the VPP and the GPP and the netvert it will directly invoke the API here to ensure it can control the NSH SFC plugin to act as classifier but if you want to enable total third function solution and say if you want to control third function folder and proxy and I don't think the GPP and the netvert has their capability because it does not have a serve function model it only controls the classifier hi and the SFC model as it currently stands says that to complete the processing the entire function chain yeah even if you're wanting to do you know per packet processing you just do that one packet that packet will be hopping about from machine to machine to machine to machine yep complete function chain given the kind of the concept of VPP and VPP's own kind of like an internal service graph have you considered a more radical interpretation of FSC within VPP with the entire SFC chain gets wrong to completion within a single VPP instance could you repeat your question I didn't quite understand that yeah okay it's it's I guess it's so SFC is it currently stands as you know packets come in and you classify them in the hop from machine a to machine b yep yep VPP is kind of doing something similar instead where in a packet comes in yep and then it gets run you to completion lots of different you know all the different nodes in the VPP graph yeah so have you considered a model for SFC within VPP that could have mapped the the overall SFC processing into VPP to you to run the complete SFC chain just within a single VPP instance you mean a single instance to everything right so that actually can work but I think it does not scale say for example I need a I sign a sale with his customers I want to create a certain chain with 10 gig a literate so for example for that case maybe you can we can make it work but how about 100 gig gig gig gig you know you you may have a this load balancer to load balancing the 100 gig traffic to 10 servers each server that's just a 10 gig for that case basically you can work but sometimes if it's a static chain for example I have a CP use case the first node is always you know BNG the next is always you know firewall the surgery is a say rerouter if has a last stick chain basically you can easily conflict VPP to the outcome thing but how about if I want to change the order and how about if I want to add additional function and that additional function is not actually implementing VPP it's provided by another vendor say that about a deep engine for that case it's very hard to enable that so I mean if you want to implement a pure VPP based different chain and all this function are developed based on dpk or VPP seriously you can do that thing and actually it can actually best perform because you don't have to move packet between VMs between containers on a single server or move packet between different servers that actually has best perform but for open source we can do that way but for a real deployment for operator they may have different we have from different vendors in different format some containers some are you know KVM based VM some are Zen based VM you cannot do that thing so actually in ODL basically it support both as a counterplane or it actually kind of support both but in terms of how to map a server function model to a data plan model actually we want the policy component for example in own app to allows you to say create server chain deploy server and chain use VMP on a single server and also you can specify policy say I want deploy server chain on a single rack or give a certain chain cross data center so if you have different policy and then auctorator can actually deploy the SVNF or PNF on different location and also maps the virtual link between those server function to the overlay network connection and the only other connection and that is a you know broader topic you know we cannot talk about that at this point but and the students of questions yes it can but it has certain limitations okay thank you
