Matthew and Stephane

Thank you for the opportunity for us to present the draft at April 28 Interim meeting.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-dunbar-bess-bgp-sdwan-usage/?include_text=1

We understand that the draft has been on the https://trac.ietf.org/trac/bess/wik as Candidates for WG Adoption.

We are asking BESS WG Chairs to start the WG Adoption call for the draft.

This draft demonstrates how & why  BGP-based control plane can be effectively used for large scale SDWAN overlay networks, which is very beneficial to the industry and to other SDOs that have on-going SDWAN projects, such as MEF, BBF, ONUG etc. So that they don't have to re-invent the wheel.

Thank you very much.
Linda Dunbar
