Hi,

A new revision -05 of VNFPool Problem Statement I-D is posted as below:
http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-zong-vnfpool-problem-statement-05.txt

Many thanks to Qiang, Marco, and Georgios for your comments on -04 version. I mainly incorporated your suggestions, as well as further clarified VNFPool scope and relation to SFC.

Main changes:

1)       Update definition of VNF set to clarify the relation to VNF pools;

2)       Focus VNFPool scope to internal VNF, and interface between VNF and Service Control Entity, *not* communications between VNFs;

3)       Change 5.4 to "Interaction between VNF and Service Control Entity";

4)       Emphasize that we currently assume VNF pool contains the instances of same functional type, *not* different VNF components;

5)       Update 6.3 about VNFPool relation to SFC;

Please folks continue reviewing the new version. Your comments are ALWAYS welcome!
